When to Elope in Sweden
Sweden has a variety of landscapes, so weather can vary a ton! Before you decide on an elopement date, learn a little bit about the country’s climate.
WINTER
Winters in Sweden are cold, and very dark. One great reason to elope in the winter is that you might get to see the northern lights! In exchange, however, you’ll have to deal with nearly 24 hour darkness.
SPRING
Wildflowers bloom in the spring, and the earth seems to come back to life after the cold, dark winter. If you’re hoping to hike in the mountains, spring might still be too snowy! But, it’s the perfect time to explore the cities and lower elevation landscapes before tourist season begins.
SUMMER
Summer Is the busiest season in Sweden, because as the weather gets warmer, all the local attractions open up and the snow melts from the mountain tops! It rarely gets too hot in Sweden, so even if you elope in the summer, make sure to bring a jacket!
FALL
The leaves change colors in early fall, and it’s a great time to explore Sweden after the summer crowds have left. In September, temperatures are still moderate and Sweden’s landscapes haven’t yet been dusted with snow.
