📅 Best Months to Get Married in Vancouver
Short Answer: May to September = Peak season.
Best weather for outdoor ceremonies
In-season flowers (if using fresh)
Higher demand = higher prices + faster bookings
Off-season (Oct–Feb) has perks: lower rates, cozier vibes, and full access to modern themes like rose gold or black and gold.
