AMALFI COAST WEDDING PLANNING: THE ULTIMATE GUIDE FOR WEDDINGS

AMALFI COAST WEDDING AND ELOPEMENT SEASON

The main wedding season through Italy runs from April to October each year, but the good news is, you can get married at Amalfi Coast anytime of the year! Let’s go through each season and break them down so you can get a better idea of the different Amalfi Coast seasons.

• Spring

  In Italy, particularly at Amalfi, spring is perfection. These are the months of March, April and May where days start to get long and the temperature is sublime (aside from March which can often get a little chilly in the morning hours and at night). This is the season where flowers start to bloom and the crowds (although starting to pick up), haven’t exactly reached their summer peak. You’ll find the beaches uncrowded but still too cold for a swim. Temperature-wise, in March, it will be in the region of 60 degrees F which goes up to 72 degrees F in May.

  What to pack for Spring?

  We’d recommend lightweight pants/trousers and long sleeve shirts (these are your safe bet). But you may also want to pack some T-shirts, shorts, swimsuit and sun-hat for warmer days. For the nights that are on the cooler side, a lightweight jacket and medium-weight scarf will do justice. P.S. remember to pack a pocket umbrella in case of any spring showers.

• Summer

  Summer is without a doubt the season that everyone wants to visit the Amalfi Coast so prepare yourself for crowds pretty much everywhere you go. You’ll find temperatures in the region of 70-80 degrees F with long sunny days and pleasant evenings with cool breezes of the sea. On the beach, some visitors will be sun-bathing and swimming whilst others may be snorkeling and boating in the clear waters so it’s a whole vibe.

  What to pack for Summer?

  We’d suggest tailored shorts, lightweight slacks and long + short sleeve shirts. You’re also in for a treat here in Italy in the Summer months so remember your swimsuit and sun hat. For him - pack some collared shirts for fancy dinners out. For her - pack some lightweight skirts, sundresses and blouses.

• Fall/Autumn

  Travelling to the Amalfi Coast in the Fall can give you a unique experience, which all depends on the month that you choose to travel. For instance, early September involves summer vibes but the temperature declines to the regions of 70 degrees F by the end of the month. From October, you will experience some cool with ocassional warm and sunny days whilst in November, day-light gets reduced to 10hrs (though still quite high compared to other countries in the Northern Hemisphere).

  What to pack for Fall?

  For Fall, we’d suggest lightweight slacks with long-sleeve and short-sleeve shirts as well as some shorts, a swimsuit and sun-hat for warmer days. For him - pack some collared shirts for fancy dinners out. P.S. if you’re travelling in the early fall, then a lightweight jacket will do justice but in October and November, we’d recommend a mid-weight jacket, umbrella and waterproofs since it can rain a little.

• Winter

  Winter months (from December to February), can still host stunning weddings at the Amalfi Coast even though it’s not the official wedding season. In fact, as Winter months don’t fall within the peak wedding season, then you would be able to find good deals and save money. Winter months are great for those wanting to get away from the hustle and bustle of a busy city and spend quality time with their loved ones in a secluded, yet stunning location.

  What to pack for Winter?

  Although you may be lucky and catch a break with some mild winter weather, it’s always best to be on the safe side and prepared for everything. So if you’re travelling to Amalfi in Winter months, then you want to pack some medium-weight coat, a hat and scarf. You also want a pair of jeans, slacks, long-sleeve shirts and sweaters. Average rainfall at Amalfi in the Winter months is around 4-5 inches so remember to pack an umbrella and waterproof jacket in preparation for wet weather.
