January, February or March wedding date

I live in CT and I personally would never do a January or February wedding because I would be terrified of it snowing enough that guests or vendors would to cancel/have trouble coming. It's just not something I would want to worry about on top of everything else and saving a little money wouldn't be worth it to me with how nervous I would be about it. I would do March for sure out of all those three months. Even in March it usually snows here but typically not to the same degree as Jan and Feb.

I live in PA and if we weren't able to get married on a Saturday afternoon in October, we were going to probably get married a Saturday night in February because of the expense (it was a lot less for the minimum). I was going to go with February, because I feel that the weather patterns are the most stable in February (then in January - March). The weather patterns in March could still be really unstable, and the weather could be hit or miss.

You should look at the past few years and when it snowed in each month. I live in New York too and I feel like the past few years - especially this past winter, it did not snow much in January or February, but March was crappy. It really is a hit or miss with climate change these days.

I think you would be safe with a late March date for sure!

I live in NJ so yea the weather patters are a hit or miss these days and it's so hard to tell.

I live in New Jersey, this year we got most of the snow in February (I think January just got some flurries, and March was nothing) but in the past couple years I recall March actually being the worst of the snow... in 2018 we got 5 blizzards, each with over a foot of snow, just in March.

Honestly it's a gamble during those 3 months no matter what haha, but based on recent trends I actually think January may be your safest bet.

Yeah, like who would have thought we would be dealing with 45 degree weather right now?!

I live in New Jersey too and it's so hard because we would have family flying in from out of state so that is my concern also. And we probably will be carrying the bulk of the bills for the wedding, while shopping for a house so "off-peak" season is our best bet. But the weather out here is hit or miss, and it's soooo hard to tell lol but i'm shooting for late-March so hopefully in 2021 Mother Nature will be nice and cooperate lol

Yeah I'd also warn your friends and family about potential bad weather/flight delays, and maybe have them plan to fly in a little early (if the wedding is on Saturday maybe they could shoot for a Thursday night flight just in case Mother Nature is not on your side!)

I'm a little further south in MD and we still get tons of snow in January and February. Yeah, it may rain in March, but you won't have to worry about 2' of snow on the ground. I would definitely consider a March wedding date.
