Off Season
answered by Gayle ODonnell

Q. how much money would I be saving by having my wedding in an off-season month, "like September"?

--Tammy

A. Dear Tammy

In many parts of the country, September is considered in the middle of the busiest wedding season there is, since the weather is more dependable then. A general answer to your question would be
that off-season in most places, other than Hawaii or similar locales, would be November, and then January through March. There is definitely money to be saved during these seasons, sometimes as much as 1/3 of the facility rental fee, because the facility managers are more desperate for your business. You can also save money, even in the busiest wedding season months by having your wedding on a less common day of the week - many times marrying Monday - Thursday will save you a great deal of money. It is not possible to be precise about amounts of money to be saved without more information about your wedding, but in general you will save money by choosing less popular dates and times. Best of luck to you!

Gayle
