5 Pinterest-Worthy Reasons for a Winter Wedding in the Del Mar Village
June weddings will always have their place, but more and more brides are opting for a wedding in the winter. And why not? During wedding “off-season,” venues and services are often cheaper, which means accomplishing that Pinterest-worthy wedding of your dreams is suddenly more affordable.If your Pinterest boards are a contrasting mix of the deep, romantic colors of a winter wedding and the cool breeziness of summer nuptials, choosing the location and date of your wedding could prove a little complicated. Luckily, a winter wedding in Del Mar may just be the answer. Del Mar’s coastal location and Mediterranean climate allow brides to have an outdoor, seaside wedding any time of the year.Here are five reasons a winter wedding in Del Mar will make all your Pinterest followers swoon:
Breathtaking Beach Views
Brides and grooms (and even those without upcoming nuptials) flock to Del Mar year-round because of the amazing beaches and ocean views. So many of the city’s venues and restaurants are seaside and/or offer incredible views of the Pacific Ocean. And while Del Mar is known for its plentiful sunshine, even a beach wedding on a gray day can be gorgeous.
Perfect Weather
The biggest hiccup to planning a winter wedding (in most places) is unpredictable weather and freezing temperatures. But in Del Mar, you can have a wedding in the middle of winter and have the same sunshine most places have only in the summer. Del Mar has nearly perfect weather year-round, and even in the middle of winter, guests may only need a light jacket.
