Wedding in May - Avignon
Hello I am thinking of getting married in Avignon in the last week of May. However, it is important to me for it not to be raining or windy. Therefore do you think the last week of May would be taking a big risk? Or is the weather typically pleasant by then?
Many thanks

No one can predict the weather, however there are certain regions at certain times of the year where you can give reasonably accurate assertions. For example England in January - I can guarantee you it will be cold and you will require a coat.
i just wondered what the weather is like in Avignon at the end of May. Would you say is it a time of year and region that is completely unpredictable?

Regardless of what the weather will be like have you looked into the legalities of it all? What paperwork you need to marry in France? Or is "getting married in Avignon" only a ceremony/party and you will have already legally married in your own country?

I will be marrying in my own country and this will be a ceremony/party only.

I have been in that area a fair amount around that time and have had zero times when it was raining. IME, mid to late summer is more of a risk in that area for thunder storms. However, we have been in Provence and Languedoc during late May early June when it has been quite hot-so definitely look for properties with A/C. If it is any consolation, in France like in several other countries and cultures, rain on your wedding day is considered a good luck omen.
