Weekend weddings
Fridays and Sundays can help you avoid crunch times
 
Return to articles index | Weekday weddings
 

   Time was when weddings were always on Sunday. Now, most weddings are performed on Saturday with the reception following. Their popularity guarantees that some reception facilities are booked as much as 18 months in advance for Saturdays in prime spring, early summer and autumn periods.
    If you can plan a Friday or Sunday wedding, or at least the reception on those days, your choices will be greater, and in some cases, your cost might be reduced.
    Check first with your clergy to see if they perform Sunday weddings, as many prefer to devote Sunday exclusively to regular worship services and family.
    Some restaurants will close down exclusively for your reception on those days, with special rates or packages. Your favorite DJ or band is more likely to have any day but Saturday free, and the same holds true with your preferred photograher and videographer. During prom season, Friday or Sunday may be the only time you can hire a limousine.
