No Dry Summer Weddings this Year?

Some couples would want to get married this summer in beaches where the sun beautifully sets and gardens where flowers bloom. But couples who are planning to tie the knot this coming summer of 2011 have to think twice before making the wedding preparations.

According to the Asia News Network, it is going to be a wet summer in the Philippines due to the La Niña phenomenon. The Philippine Atmospheric Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) said that the country will experience above-normal rainfall in the summer months of March, April and May. PAGASA is expecting one typhoon in March, two in April and another two in May. June, the start of the rainy season and a popular month for weddings in the Philippines, is also expecting two typhoons.

Due to global warming, even the Western part of the Philippines which should be dry this year is also experiencing above-normal rainfall.

Couples preparing to get married on the months of March, April, May and June should consult the weather forecasts and make necessary “in case of heavy rainfall” arrangements a part of their wedding planning.
