The Best Season for a Medellin Elopement
The City of Eternal Spring earns its name: warm and stable year-round, with the only real variable the rain. At 1,500 metres, Medellin's seasons are about the wet, not the temperature.
You plan a Colombia elopement around escaping winter, or the tropical heat.
Medellin gives you neither. It is spring every day of the year.
The City of Eternal Spring earns its name, and its seasons are about the rain, not the temperature. The drier windows are what you plan around.

December through February and July through August are the driest months: more reliable clear afternoons for the golden El Poblado light and the best odds for a clear Guatape day. These are the windows I aim for.

The wetter months, and the constant
April to May and September to November are wetter, with afternoon rain the norm, though the mornings stay clear and the flowers are at their most lush. The constant across all of it is the warm spring air, around twenty-two degrees, so the styling holds year-round.
Pick the window for the light you want, then hand me the date. As your Elopement Curator I track the season, plan the drier windows, coordinate the notaria and vendors, and both shoot and film it. Twelve years and 240+ couples in, Medellin's climate barely constrains the date, which is part of its gift.
