Most Popular Wedding Months

Every year millions of people get married and start their lives together. December is one of the more popular months in which to get engaged, but other months of the year are more popular for weddings.


The decision on when to get married depends on a host of factors. Some couples choose the date based on availability with a church or reception hall, while others might prefer to walk down the aisle during a specific season. Some couples choose their date because of a special event, such as a birthday or another day of note.

Most couples decide on a wedding month primarily for the weather. That’s why the spring and summer are the most popular times of the year in which to tie the knot. Here is a list of the most popular months to tie the knot.
