in Oklahoma
Hey guys, I've lived in Oklahoma for a few months now and I'm considering moving my wedding date up from June to March of next year. My fiance and I really want to have an outdoor wedding but we have no idea what the weather is like here during March. If anyone could tell us what to expect that would be great.

Anniversary

    It's unpredictable at best. There could be snow on the ground or it could be 75 degrees. I would just be sure that wherever you book has an indoor space as a contingency plan.

    Unpredictable is the word to describe it.  

    We got married at The Gardens     www.myweddingchapel.net
    It has the Gardens outside, but if weather was a problem, you can very easily move inside

    In all fairness, June can be unpredictable as well (given the storms we often get in early summer).  I'd much rather go to an outdoor wedding in the spring than in the dead of summer personallly though.

    I didn't even think about making sure the outdoor venue had an indoor area just in case. Such a great tip!

    It's really hard planning a wedding by yourself when you don't know the area or anyone in it and your fiance works 65+ hrs a week.

    Thanks so much everyone! Very helpful!

    Where I live in Oklahoma, I wanna say it's snowed a few times during our Spring Break (which is mid-march). I know during our late fall, winter, & early spring we had lots of snow this past year. It was the most ridiculous thing ever haha.

    & I do recall one day there being snow on the ground, & the next day it was like 70 degrees outside? Then less than a week later, snow again. It was so strange.

    But yes, Oklahoma weather is unpredictable, to say the least. If you don't like how it's looking outside, wait about five minutes & I'm sure it will have changed. ;]

    As pretty much everyone has said, Oklahoma weather is just unpredictable no matter when. I will say though, my birthday is 3/26, and for the past 3 years I've tried to plan an outdoor bday party and inevitably a cold front moves in everytime. Two years ago it actually snowed like 2 or 3 inches. The weather overall will probably be in the upper 60's lower 70's. But again, you just never know.

    Haha yes, I sure hope Mother Nature will decide to be nice! But you never know with her! Sometimes she just likes to be awful lol.

    But if you go here: http://www.weather.com/outlook/events/weddings/
    you can type in your wedding date & location, etc. & it'll tell you info about how the weather has been in that town on that date for the past few years. & it always tells you about the weather of that month too. different stuff like that. It's pretty nifty. =]
