"Simone Migliori liked the idea of an October wedding so much she had two - a backyard elopement in 2023 and a bigger bash in 2024. Part of the decision, at least on wedding No. 1, was that it was the anniversary of when Migliori, 27, and her husband first met. But it was also because she's always wanted to get married in the fall. Both events were held in Massachusetts, and she loves the color palette and the cooler weather"
"Her assessment is correct: When it comes to weddings, October is the hot way to go. Adieu to June. The wedding website The Knot's 2025 global wedding report found that October is the most popular month in the United States to wed, as it has been since 2019. Data from Zola, another wedding planning website, shows October has been scrapping it out with June and September for the top nuptial month for at least the past decade."
October has emerged as the leading month for weddings in the United States, surpassing the traditional June peak and holding the top spot since 2019. Wedding platforms show October competing closely with June and September for nuptial dates over the past decade. Couples prefer October for its fall color palettes, cooler weather, and seasonal cultural cues such as Taylor Swift’s aesthetic and pumpkin spice culture. Some couples choose October for personal anniversaries or to be different. The historical preference for June stems from ancient Roman celebrations of Juno and medieval floral seasonality when early summer blossoms were more plentiful.
