Hi everyone :]
I'm fairly new here but I've seen how wonderful these boards can be and I would LOVE some input on choosing my wedding date. Also, I know there's a student board but this one seems a bit more intimate/less intimidating :]
My fiancé & I will both be college seniors when we get married. We've settled on October 2012 (about halfway through the semester) but we're stuck on the actual date. We're trying to keep costs down so I was hoping for a Friday or Sunday wedding. The problem is that I don't want our attendants to feel pressured to take much time off from their classes for travel time, rehearsal/dinner, and recovery time from the actual event. (They're all out of state- figures!) I also really want an evening wedding, or at least early evening, so that makes Sundays a bit difficult.
I feel like October is tricky for non-Saturday weddings because the only holiday weekend is Columbus Day, and most people don't seem to get that off from work/school.
So, what do you ladies think? Have any of you thought about a non-Saturday wedding? Any help would be much, much appreciated! Thank you :]
