Outdoor weddings give newlyweds the opportunity to celebrate under the abundant Georgia sun. The feeling of freedom and new beginnings in your
wedding photos will be truly palpable with blue sky and green trees as a backdrop.
Mid-spring and fall are the best times to hold an outdoor wedding in Atlanta. September, October, and November are the most popular months, though March, April, and May also have pleasant weather. The climate is cool for most of the day, though you'll need to plan for the thunderstorms common throughout the Southeast. That means having a backup plan, like a covered pavilion or tent for people to retreat to.
You can also hold your wedding at a semi-outdoor venue. These spaces may have the main ceremony outside but the party indoors. Many event centers specializing in weddings offer semi-outdoor venues, with gardens, ponds, tree-lined pathways, and other beautiful spaces. Yet guests can move indoors as comfort or climate dictate.
