Pros and Cons of Fall Weddings 

September 15, 2021

Pumpkin spice, bonfires, and cozy sweaters. If these are a few of your favorite things, a fall wedding may be perfect for you. Before you book your fall wedding let's look at the pros and cons of getting married during this season. 

Pros

Weather

Fall is a great time for a wedding especially in Charleston because the weather gets cooler and you can walk around and not be dripping with sweat. There are a lot of weddings outside during this season because there is a wonderful breeze. The leaves begin changing colors, so the outdoors is a beautiful background for all of your pictures. 

Availability During the Fall

Fall is less busy than the summer months, so your guests will easily be able to find a place to stay. Additionally, you will have more dates to choose from when booking your venue, caterer, music, and bartenders. 

Accessible Decorations 

If you are seeking autumn color palettes or fall-inspired pieces for decorations you’ll be able to easily find what you’re looking for. Stores begin stocking fall products before summer ends. You’ll be able to hit some deals on items too. 

Flowers 

There are tons of flowers that bloom year-round, but there are some in-season fall flowers that are just beautiful and will make a statement. 

  • Garden roses are gorgeous this time of year

  • Anemones have striking black centers that look effortless in a bouquet

  • Dahlias are stunning in a bouquet, especially burgundy dahlias 

  • Marigolds complement the fall color palette of gold, orange, and red 

  • Protea makes for a one of a kind bridal bouquet

Cons

Hurricane Season 

Yes, the weather will be cooler, but it is the season for hurricanes in Charleston. You will want to prepare a backup plan for your wedding day. If you were planning an outdoor wedding be sure to have an inside area booked well in advance.

Holidays are Approaching 

Once fall hits, families are planning vacations and being more cautious with finances due to upcoming holiday shopping and travel. It is good to be aware of this if you desire a destination or weekend getaway wedding, which requires airfare and hotel stays for your guests. 

Guests Calendars Begin Filling 

Fall begins the holiday season. If your wedding is near Thanksgiving, you may find it harder to have guests RSVP, since many will have holiday plans. It is best to send your invitations for a fall wedding at least a year in advance. 

Skin 

As summer fades and fall begins the skin tends to start drying out. There are numerous skincare products available, but there is nothing worse than a brand new product failing on you. No one wants flakey skin or dry spots on their face, especially not on their wedding day.
