When people think of Puerto Rico, they imagine sunny skies, turquoise beaches, and year-round celebration vibes—and they’re not wrong! But just like anywhere else, the wedding industry here has its rhythm, and believe it or not, we do have a low season.

Usually spanning late summer through early fall (August to early November), the off-season is when weddings slow down. But for us planners at MGT Events, this isn’t time off—it’s time to level up.

🌧️ 🔥 Why Is There a Low Season in Puerto Rico?
Puerto Rico’s low wedding season is mostly due to:

Weather concerns (it’s hurricane season—though that doesn’t mean it rains every day!)

Back-to-school timing for families and guests

Many couples opting for peak season months like December–May for travel convenience

But here’s the thing: the island is just as beautiful, vendors have more availability, and venues often offer more flexibility during this time—so if you’re planning a wedding on a budget or want a more intimate, laid-back vibe, low season might just be your hidden gem 💎

📋 What Do We Wedding Planners Do During the Off-Season?


You might think we’re relaxing on the beach sipping piña coladas, margaritas or a cold Medalla by the beach (okay… maybe one or two), but the reality is that this season is when the magic happens behind the scenes. Here’s what our team is up to during these months:

✨ 1. Prepping for the Next Season’s Weddings
We’re finalizing timelines, attending site visits, confirming vendor availability, and walking through every little detail with our couples. This is when we refine, perfect, and personalize your big day.

🖥️ 2. Reviewing and Rebuilding Our Systems
From improving planning tools and onboarding guides to updating our brochures and vendor lists, we use this time to optimize how we serve you—so that when high season hits, we’re sharper than ever.

💌 3. Designing and Inspiring
We’re busy creating mood boards, curating Pinterest galleries, and bringing fresh design concepts to life. The off-season gives us space to flex our creative muscles and offer our couples unique, updated ideas.

📸 4. Submitting Real Weddings for Publication
Like our recent Wedding Planner Magazine feature (yes, we’re still excited about it!), we use this time to share our past weddings with national and international publications. This helps spotlight our couples and the incredible vendor teams we collaborate with.

🌐 5. Connecting with New Couples!
Many 2026 couples start their planning journey during the off-season, and that’s when we begin initial consultations, venue scouting, and vision planning. It’s the perfect moment to book your wedding before calendars fill up.

💡 Planning During the Low Season Has Perks!
Couples who book their weddings in the off-season can enjoy:

💰 Better rates from some vendors and venues

📅 More flexible dates and availability

🧘 Less stress and competition for top services

🌺 And the same beautiful island setting!
