Birthday Wedding?

My fiance and I happen to share the same birthday. We love sharing it- neither of us are big about birthdays, so we are happy spending the day trying to make one another happy. Our birthday is in the winter, the season we both want to get married in. We are really debating whether to also get married on our birthday. I know this is a completely opinionated type of question, but I'd love to get some feedback. For two people who don't like making a big deal about birthdays/anniversaries (we don't even do presents), would it be a cute idea?

    Does it fall on the weekend or were you thinking of getting married in the middle of the week to make this work?

    I have the same question as the pp.  If it's on the weekend, I say go for it.  If it's during the week it'd be difficult for your guests.

    Should be cool. Only if it's on a weekend if you're planning on having a guest list. Disregard the day of the week if you and FI are going to do JOP.

    And it's also totally cool so long as you don't put "It's our birthday, too!" anywhere on your wedding invitations...Wink

    My FI and I also share the same birthday and were thinking about getting married on it. But there just wasn't enough time for us to plan a wedding for this November because it is on a Sat this year and we weren't ready financially,. I think it's cute as long as it's a weekend day for your guests.

    [QUOTE]I strongly advise you to choose a different date than your birthdays.  My mother was married on her FI's birthday, and the marriage was not a success.  He is still bitter about it, and it spoils his birthday now.

    haha, I very seriously doubt that the same birth date contributed to the failure of their marriage.  I also sorry he's that deranged that he is still bitter.  SPOILS his birthday?  Is he 9?

    this has to be a first

    Thanks for the help, everyone! It would be on a Sunday, which we think would make it a bit cheaper. It was more that we wanted a Sunday wedding in the winter, to save money (and I love winter!), so it seemed to just work out. Thanks for all the advice :-)
