April Wedding in Toronto

April is really an unpredictable month in Toronto. My mothers birthday was April 2, and I recall the weather being a little warmer and sunny, while my birthday was April 15 and it was an ice storm.

Making the most of the weather and being open-minded to what may come will really aid in having beautiful pictures and a wonderful time!

April will not be green, alas, in Toronto. And it will be cold. You might even encounter a snow storm if you're "lucky". That being said you have some interesting options if you'd like green in your pics. I don't know where in the city you are getting married, but the conservatory at Allan Gardens is just gorgeous and wedding photos are taken there all the time (you'll need a permit, but that's normal and photographers are probably familiar with it). It's warm inside because the plants need it, and there are lovely water features and stuff and everything!

Off season gives you better rates with the venue and if its chilly, everyone will be warm inside.

As for greenery for pictures, its hard to tell what mother nature may give depending on the time of day and season.

I'd say go with what works with your wallet lol and then find a good photographer. What I've learned o. My wedding journey is that things don't always have to be so typical. Think about it why do all brides do pictures outside? Don't get me wrong I chose an outside venue but it is just amazing and goes with my look. (my wedding is in October by the way so I hope we don't freeze too bad lol) but there are lots of options for indoor photos. Depends on lots of things I guess. Check out where is close to your venue. Also, how is your day? For example my ceremony is at 5:30pm at my venue so we have all that time to do pics before. So if you have time you can travel a little bit further from your venue if need be. Hope this helps!

View quoted message Yes for sure if I want to get it in April it's going to be the last days on a weekend.
Agreee, it's hard to pick a day

View quoted message Yes, the only promotion this place is offering is January to April 40$ cheaper for every individual.

This past mid-April was pretty terrible with the heavy rain and ice storm.

2016 I was with a wedding on April 2. It was kind of cold but not freezing. I wore a thin coat. At one point there was really light snow in the morning while we were walking to the church but for like 10 min. Yet I came across a photographer who shot at a wedding that happened April 23 2016 and it was beautiful. Greenery everywhere and looks like the weather wasn't cold.

Maybe get the last weekend of April? There may be rain but that could happen any day of the year. At least it'll be somewhat warmer and more greenery. Weather guessing sucks when it comes to picking a date unfortunately

We did May on a Friday and were able to get a lot of great savings since it is a Friday!! A lot of places give you the off season prices for Friday and Sunday Weddings! I would say you're fine in April..... but honestly we had an ice storm mid April this year so I really dont know anymore.... :/
