Generally, summer and early autumn (June to October) are the most popular months for an outdoor wedding. During these months, the average high temperature is around 75°F, although it can get quite hot and humid in July and August (up to 77°F). However, San Diego has great weather all year round, so picking the ideal time for your outdoor reception should depend on your personal preferences and the type of weather you like. For example, if you can’t stand extreme heat and humidity but still want to have fabulous weather, spring or late fall may be the best time as the temperatures don’t exceed 68°F. On the other hand, if you don't mind high temperatures and want to take advantage of the long days, then a summer date can be perfect for you.
San Diego’s Downtown offers a variety of stunning outdoor wedding venues, so it’s the perfect area to kick off your search.

This stylish neighborhood is famous for being home to out-of-the-box outdoor wedding spaces such as gardens and bistros with unique decor and a hip atmosphere. For venues with waterfront views, head over to Harbour Island and Shelter Island.
