Put a Spring in Your Step with a Springtime Wedding
Is spring a good time to get married?
As wedding planners, we witness the power of love all year round. Choosing the perfect season for your wedding can make it truly memorable, and every season brings its unique gifts. Springtime is full of beauty, warmth, and excitement. There’s so much to love and it’s the perfect time to tie the knot in the breathtaking Lake District.
Read on and let us put a spring in your step about springtime weddings…
daylight hours and april showers
After months of getting up and leaving work in the dark, January brings extra minutes of daylight at the start and end of every day. Such a welcome relief! In spring, longer and warmer days make us re-energized and there’s no better feeling than shedding winter coats. Mother Nature bursts into life with the warmth of spring sunshine and gentle rain. We sense the excitement of new beginnings. This ‘rebirth’ is inspiring and reminds us of the resilience of nature. As your love too continues to grow, what better season to start your wedding journey?
Blooming lovely!
The Lake District is spectacular all year round, but spring is a joyous season! Migrating birds return, newborn lambs frolic and red squirrels dart through the woodlands. The fells are alive with birdsong, and meadows a hive of activity. Spring flowers bring a riot of colour to gardens and riverbanks and there’s nothing more gorgeous than a spring wedding bouquet! In the language of flowers, our long-awaited cherry blossoms are associated with love and romance. Springtime wedding portraits beneath cherry boughs are stunning. For those seeking natural beauty as a backdrop to their wedding portraits, a Lake District springtime wedding is hard to beat!
enjoy the highs of the low season
Traditionally, May through to September are the most sought-after wedding dates. Yet April and early May are often overlooked. April marks the beginning of spring in the Lakes and brings a spectacular display. Daffodils, cherry blossoms, rhododendrons, and bluebells carpet the landscape creating a breathtaking sight. April and early May fall outside the peak tourist season, with fewer crowds compared to the summer months. Visitors enjoy a more relaxed visit, with greater availability and affordability when looking for accommodation, especially outside the Easter school holidays. If you’re feeling spontaneous in springtime, more dates will be available than in high season. A springtime wedding is the perfect package.
Hope springs eternal
Spring is the season of possibilities! The hope and optimism that sweep in with returning swallows make it a natural time to plan for the future and seize the day! Perhaps it’s time to sow the seeds of love, put down roots, and embark on the greatest adventure… a Lake District springtime wedding escape.
If you are open to getting married at any time of the year, enquire below about short-notice available dates…it’s not too late!
