What are the best times of year to plan a wedding on Siesta Key Beach?

One of the beauties of getting married in Siesta Key is the sunny Florida weather (ie. summer all year round!). That being said, it might be best to avoid the actual summer months (July – August in particular) for your beach wedding. Summer means heat, but also large crowds of tourists, afternoon rains, and the unpredictable hurricane season.

Avoiding the peak tourist seasons (summer & spring break) provides a more intimate and private setting for your Siesta Key Beach Wedding. As one of the most popular beaches in Florida, Siesta Key may not be the best location choice for a couple looking for a tranquil setting for their beach wedding ceremony.

If you opt for a summer wedding, avoiding the hottest hours of the day is crucial. You can have a peaceful beach wedding ceremony in the morning, and celebrate through the night at one of the many local restaurants or reception venues.

Can we have a reception on Siesta Key Beach after the wedding ceremony?
