Best Months to Get Married in Ocean City, MD

Ocean City is a beautiful place to get married year-round — the key is knowing what each season offers.

June – August
These are the warmest months with classic beach weather, ocean breezes, and long summer days. Perfect for couples who want that true Ocean City beach-wedding feel.

September
One of the most popular months for weddings. The ocean stays warm and summer crowds thin out — just keep in mind it is still storm season, so weather flexibility is important.

October
October has become a favorite for couples who want mild temperatures, often in the 70s, and a calmer beach atmosphere. It’s ideal for outdoor ceremonies without summer heat.

April – May
These spring months are beautiful and quieter, with fewer beachgoers and comfortable temperatures. There can be a slight chill near the ocean, but it’s perfect for relaxed, romantic ceremonies.

Winter Weddings (Don’t rule them out!)
Don’t let winter scare you off. We’ve planned many beautiful winter weddings — just not on the beach. Indoor venues, ocean views, and cozy receptions shine this time of year, and venue and hotel rates are often significantly lower, making winter one of the best values in Ocean City.
