EMBRACE THE SIZZLE: WHY WE LOVE SUMMER WEDDINGS IN TEXAS
Summer in Texas is HOT. But hey, let's be real here—for most of the year, it’s hot! Your friends, family, and loved ones brave the Texas heat year in and year out. They've acclimatized themselves to this sweaty state, finding joy in BBQs, pool parties, and the magical invention called iced sweet tea. They can handle a summer wedding with you!
But let's flip the perspective and focus on the perks. Picture this: a shaded, outdoor ceremony amidst vibrant blooms, a stunning sunset as your backdrop, and a reception that seamlessly transitions from an al fresco soirée to a dance party under the stars. Summer weddings in Texas offer a unique charm and a chance to embrace the vibrant energy of the season. Plus, you'll have abundant refreshing drink options to keep everyone cool, from icy margaritas to frosty lemonades—hydration has never been more delicious!
So let's dive into why having a summer wedding in Texas, despite the heat, is actually pretty awesome.
HERE ARE OUR TOP REASONS TO HAVE A SUMMER WEDDING IN NORTH TEXAS:
College Football hasn’t started yet.
Pro Football hasn’t started yet.
Hunting Season hasn’t started yet.
Graduations aren’t wrecking everyone’s travel plans.
Super low chance of rain.
Ice cream or frozen lemonade before and during the ceremony?! Are you kidding? What a fun way to start off your wedding day. We have amazing local “ice” treat vendors who can greet your guests on arrival with something cool. Guests sip on those as they mingle before your 7ish pm ceremony to get acquainted. This gives the ceremony more focus, everyone has already looked all around and knows who is there, and they are cool sipping their slushy.
Make it a wedding weekend! Hello, PK Lake is in our backyard with all the great reports and water activities for your weekend wedding! It’s summer; everyone loves summer because it means margaritas, breezy summer nights, and water activities during the day! People are ready to travel and have fun during the summer months.
How do you make the summer a great option? You live and plan by the GOLDEN RULE of summer weddings — Ceremony 1.5 hours before Sunset!
No rushing on getting ready, and they can even skip the need to stay Friday night since they will have all day Saturday to “get ready” and travel for an evening wedding. (in contrast, a winter wedding ceremony time is often 3:30pm-4:30pm)
Summer weddings are late-night events! Meaning your guests have all day to do something fun, like go to the Lake or hang out at the pool.
There are more honeymoon options (instead of postponing) in the summer.
Discounted rates - SCR is stunning all year, but you get it discounted to spend on that ice cream or frozen treat for guests.
Step right up for your frozen treat as you mingle before the ceremony beings! This cutie food truck-snow cone vendor is ready to give your guests that special summer feeling as they settle in to SCR before the Ceremony.
Specializing in amazing frozen lemonade and other shaved ice treats this sweet truck is the perfect splurge for your summer wedding!
