I am getting married at rose sach gardens on Oct 3rd, 2009, its the first Saturday of the month. Rummor has it that since my wedding always falls on the first Saturday that it rains. I have heard from several people that is the case and should change are date!! Someone help me calm down. Rain is not a option, becuase its all outdoors.
If anyone has had a wedding on the first Saturday of October without rain please tell me it is not true!
Hi Jennifer,
Sounds like you are falling prey to urban wedding legends! Obviously, the deeper you get in to the year, the more opportunity there is for the weather to turn on you.
The only way to gauge the opportunity for rain on your wedding day is to do a search for the weather history of that date. A good place to start is www.weather.com . The website provides an accurate forecast for the past three years on your wedding day. If all else fails, speaking with your wedding coordinator at your event location is a good place to start. He or she should be able to give you an accurate understanding of weather issues for that area.
Also, you should have a back-up plan. Even if it requires you to provide umbrellas for your guest, there needs to be some consideration for the worst-case scenario.
Remember also that rain on a wedding day is good luck!
