1. Plan Around Utah’s Weather
Utah’s seasons are stunning—but unpredictable! Spring and fall weddings can bring warm afternoons and chilly evenings, while summer events may need shade and hydration stations.
Tip: Always have a backup plan for outdoor ceremonies, like a covered pavilion or indoor space. Ask your venue if they offer weather-flexible options (many do).
2. Book Early — Especially for Peak Season
Utah’s wedding season peaks from May through October, and mountain or golf-course venues fill up quickly.
Tip: Secure your venue and key vendors (photographer, planner, and caterer) 12–18 months in advance to lock in your preferred date and pricing.
3. Take Advantage of Utah’s Scenic Backdrops
From mountain valleys to red rock cliffs, Utah offers natural beauty that minimizes décor needs.
Tip: Choose simple, elegant touches that enhance—not compete with—the landscape. Think local florals, natural wood accents, or sunset lighting.
4. Mind the Altitude and Timing
Tip: Keep guests comfortable with sunscreen, water, and shaded seating. Schedule photos for the “golden hour” just before sunset for the best light and cooler temperatures.
5. Embrace Local Flavor
Utah has incredible local vendors, caterers, and artisan bakers.
Tip: Feature a local favorite—like honey butter rolls, soda bars, or seasonal charcuterie—to give guests an authentic Utah experience.
