How Seasonal Weather in Omaha Affects Outdoor Weddings
In Omaha, we experiencethe full range of weather conditions all year long. From a blizzard in the winter to a springtime downpour, unexpected weather can significantly impact your wedding. Having a better understanding of what kind of weather you might encounter on your wedding day will help you be prepared for any situation, keeping your wedding day stress-free and comfortable. Choosing an indoor venue, like the Empire Room, will allow you to have ease on your wedding day. Whatever season you’re choosing to celebrate your relationship, here is a glimpse at what each season’s weather can bring in Omaha.
Spring - Beautiful, but Unpredictable
Spring in Omaha is absolutely stunning - blooming trees, lush greenery everywhere you look, and the perfect in-between temperatures that are comfortable for everyone. The downside is the unpredictable weather. From the constant ups and downs of the temperature, random rain, and the possibility of a late-season storm, anything is possible with little to no warning. Choosing an indoor venue will eliminate the stress of the unpredictable spring weather, making sure your day goes off without a hitch.
Summer - Heat and Storms
Summer in Omaha is beautiful with the warm, sunny days that always lift people’s spirits, until the humidity hits and the storms roll in. The combination of high temperatures and the humidity that comes with it can make outdoor weddings extremely uncomfortable for everyone. With humidity comes the high potential for a thunderstorm that can not only derail outdoor wedding plans but also make travel conditions dangerous. Choosing an indoor venue will protect your celebration from humidity in a climate-controlled setting and provide cover in case of thunderstorms.
FalL - Cold Fronts
Fall in Omaha is typically the most popular season to get married. With the beautiful colors that come with the seasons changing and the cooler temperature, it’s highly sought after, but fall weather can change quickly, regardless of the beauty that comes naturally with fall. A sunny day can quickly turn into a cold, windy day, making your wedding day less enjoyable for everyone. Choosing an indoor venue will ensure everyone stays warm regardless of a random cold front or unexpected high winds, all while still being able to enjoy the natural beauty of the season.
Winter - Snow and Ice
Winter in Omaha isn’t peak wedding season, making venue and vendor prices ideal for your budget, but the weather is a huge factor in those numbers being lower. Cold temperatures, icy streets and walkways, and threats of excessive snowfall can make any wedding challenging when factoring in comfort, snow removal, heating options, and the safety of guests.
This is the season where indoor venues make a statement. Choosing an indoor venue will provide a warm space for guests, all while utilizing the natural cozy feel that comes with the winter months, without battling the frigid temperatures outside.
