It is especially celebrated with fervor in India as it brings great relief from scorching heat and is also associated with nature worship in Hinduism. Monsoon spells magic on everybody across different age groups, religions and cultures.

The monsoon season is not an ideal time for marriages in India. However, it can prove to be an ideal setting for a wedding as it unites two people who decide to spend rest of their lives together. But chaos can be created if things are not well prepared in advance or left for the last minute. On the other hand, it can be very exciting to arrange the matrimony at a time that blends pleasant weather, fresh air and blooming flowers. With some prudence, foresight and early arrangements, getting married in monsoons can turn out to be great fun.

 It is very important to contact the concerned authorities when planning a wedding amidst the wonders of Mother Nature. You must acquire all the permits and get some information on DJ restrictions, parking facilities, generators, etc.

 You must arrange for a gazebo especially in the monsoon season to avoid a soggy ground and chairs jutting out in the mud. It will, in fact, make the setting look absorbed in a romantic flavor.

 Covering the entrance and the path leading to the Gazebo is extremely crucial. If would not make for a lovely sight if your guests donned in beautiful dresses and heavy jewelry get wet, thus, this needs complete attention.

 Location of the wedding venue also becomes significant when getting married in monsoons. Commuting in this season is usually difficult, thus, easy accessibility of the venue should be among primary concerns.
