Hey friends! Just got engaged a couple weeks ago and I'm already a little stressed. Oy! My fiancé and I are both Jewish, and it's quite common to hold traditional Jewish weddings on a Sunday because most rabbis won't officiate on sabbath (Friday evening - Saturday evening).
I'm already getting some "looks" from a couple folks when I expressed having a Sunday wedding. People think it's a cost savings thing on our end, but really it's just a traditional Jewish normality. And even if it was for cost savings, who cares?!
I'm just looking for support and advice here. I want to have a fun wedding with dancing all night long but now I'm worried people will leave early.
I know every profession is different, but if my guests really want to partake in our special day, AND if we tell them a year in advance, shouldn't they be able to take off work on the following Monday, if they so choose?
Thanks all!
