How to Plan a November Wedding
- 1). Decide on a theme. If you choose a fall theme for the wedding, it will save you a lot of time choosing flower arrangements and centerpieces for the reception. Everything down to the invitations and gown can be chosen more easily when you decide on a theme for the wedding. A November wedding might have burnt oranges, yellows and reds to complement the season.
- 2). Plan around the holidays. With Halloween in late October and Thanksgiving at the end of November, consider planning a wedding that is in mid-November so guests are not overwhelmed with holiday events.
- 3). Choose a location quickly. The holidays will be a busy time for restaurants and event halls, so book a place to hold the wedding as soon as possible to get your ideal wedding location. Remember that weather during November can sometimes be unpredictable, so if you want an outdoor wedding, plan a sheltered area with outdoor heaters for guests.
- 4). Organize your wedding party months in advance. As soon as you know you want to marry in November, ask your friends and family to participate in your wedding. Many people travel during the end of the year and adults with children might have commitments to school-related activities, so keep this in mind when you set the big date.
- 5). Pick your honeymoon destination carefully. Remember what parts of the world are suitable for a romantic getaway in November. Weather.com suggests Southeast Asia as a location to consider, with October to February as the best months to travel to the region. The Bahamas are also a suggested honeymoon hot spot, with the hottest and rainiest times being between June and October, making November through April the ideal time to visit.
