The sun shines bright in Arizona, and it is one of the best places for an outdoor wedding. Even a winter outdoor wedding is plausible with a few heaters to keep the guests warm. Arizona is one of the states where there is no waiting period once you receive your license, essentially making it ideal for those who wish to elope. Those who go the traditional route have 12 months from the time they receive their marriage license to plan and execute the wedding. The desert setting of Arizona makes for a dramatic and unreal backdrop for any outdoor wedding. Combine that with a near-temperate climate year-round and couples have picked a location winner.
