BEST TIME OF THE YEAR TO GET MARRIED

Wedding in Tuscany, Italy

Discover the perfect season for your dream destination wedding in Italy

​

When planning a destination wedding in Italy, Tuscany is always at the top of the list—and for good reason. With its rolling hills, rustic villas, world-class cuisine, and postcard-perfect landscapes, it's no wonder so many couples dream of saying “I do” under the Tuscan sun. But one of the most important questions we hear at WeddingBox Tuscany is:

​

“When is the best time to get married in Tuscany?”

​

Here’s everything you need to know—month by month—to help you choose the ideal season for your Tuscan wedding.

SPRING WEDDINGS IN TUSCANY (MARCH - EARLY JUNE)

Spring in Tuscany is absolutely stunning. The countryside bursts into bloom with wildflowers, wisteria, and lush green hills, creating a perfect romantic backdrop.

​

Pros:

  • Mild and pleasant weather

  • Blooming scenery (great for photos!)

  • Fewer tourists than peak summer

  • Comfortable for outdoor ceremonies

​

Things to Note:

  • April can still be unpredictable with some rain

  • May and June are in high demand—early booking is key​

​​

Ideal for couples who want a fresh, colourful, and floral feel.

SUMMER WEDDINGS IN TUSCANY (JULY - AUGUST)

Summer brings long sunny days and golden evening light. It’s also the most popular time for destination weddings in Tuscany, with venues buzzing and the vineyards thriving.

​

Pros:

  • Best chance of sunshine

  • Long daylight hours (ideal for sunset ceremonies)

  • Full access to seasonal produce and wine

  • Lively, festive atmosphere

​​

Things to Note:

  • Can be very hot, especially in August (often 35°C+)

  • Tourist season = higher accommodation costs

  • Some venues or services may close for Ferragosto holiday in mid-August

​​

Best suited for sun lovers and couples planning evening or indoor celebrations.

AUTUMN WEDDINGS IN TUSCANY (SEPTEMBER – OCTOBER)

Autumn is arguably the most underrated time to get married in Tuscany. The light turns golden, the vineyards change colour, and harvest season brings an earthy richness to the landscape.

​

Pros:

  • Comfortable temperatures

  • Stunning golden foliage

  • Harvest festivals & wine tasting opportunities

  • Great availability of seasonal food and flowers

​​

Things to Note:

  • Shorter days by late October

  • Weather can be a little more variable

​​

Perfect for vineyard weddings, foodies, and lovers of Tuscan wine culture.

WINTER WEDDINGS IN TUSCANY (NOVEMBER – FEBRUARY)

While winter isn’t the most common season for Tuscan weddings, it has a quiet charm all its own—especially in historical cities like Florence or Siena.

​

Pros:

  • Lower venue and accommodation prices

  • Cosy, intimate indoor settings (think fireplaces and candlelight)

  • Fewer tourists

​​

Things to Note:

  • Not ideal for outdoor ceremonies

  • Limited daylight hours

  • Some rural venues close for the season

​​

Lovely option for couples wanting a quiet, romantic wedding with an off-season budget.
