Beach wedding canceled

Laura, on March 18, 2020 at 8:40 PM Posted in Florida Planning 0 18

Our beach wedding for April 25th in Destin has been canceled Smiley sad I was so looking forward to our date because I felt like it would be perfect weather/temperature for a beach wedding. Now we are having to reschedule for a later date. Obviously looking into the fall because summer would be WAY to hot. We are looking at September 25th or October 30th. Anyone have any input on the weather during these dates? I'm well aware of hurricane season but just wondering more on temperature during that time. Thanks!

    September in Destin won’t be much cooler than summer, if at all. If you want mild weather, October would probably be better.

    Is it a destination wedding/are any of your guests traveling? If you have guests with kids who will need to travel, they may not want to come on October 30 because that would probably involve missing Halloween the next day with their kids (but if it’s not a destination wedding or no one has kids then it should be fine).


    So sorry you had to postpone and I hope your wedding ends up being everything you’ve dreamed of Smiley sad

    It is a destination wedding. Thanks for pointing that out because I did not think about that. Although, most of our friends children are very young so not sure if that would be a concern of theres.


    Thanks so much! It's been a bit overwhelming. Mostly afraid of rescheduling and something else causing it to cancel.

    Hey! Who did you go through for your wedding? Mine is in Destin on 3/30 and hasn't been cancelled. I just reconfirmed yesterday with all vendors as well.


    As for weather, I'd choose November honestly. It'll be low 70's which is perfect for a wedding outside.

    My planner is island sands beach weddings and our ceremony and reception is at Henderson beach state park. The state park canceled all events until May 15th and my planner said okaloosa county (Destin) has canceled all events until April 30th.

    I am so sorry to hear that! Good vibes that all this will be cleared up sooner rather than later.

    So far all of my vendors have said yes. We will see. 9 days out and I feel like anything can happen. It has dramatically dwindled in size. We don't care rhough bc we don't want to go through the hassle of rescheduling with all our vendors/friends/family.

    Thank you! We were able to reschedule for 7/20. My BFF is from the area and she said it is gorgeous in July. I'm sure I'll sweat my a** off but we will have fun Smiley smile are you getting married before your new date or waiting?

    It's still super hot in September so I'd go with October.
