January through March offers the most comfortable weather, though these months book 12–18 months in advance due to high demand. Summer months (June through September) see temperatures exceeding 100°F, making them less popular but offering potential savings of 20–30% on venue pricing for couples comfortable with indoor or evening events. November and February strike the best balance of pleasant weather and availability, with venues typically requiring 9–12 months' lead time.

Summer weddings (June through September) offer more flexibility due to the heat, and you may find availability with 8 to 12 months' notice.
