Okay, this should probably go in the Bride World Wide thread... But we get so much traffic in here and you ladies are always so responsive...
So, we''ve pretty much settled on May of 2006 for our wedding. Now, at first I thought May 6th would be good ~ but, I''ll still be in school and so finals week will probably be May 1-5, making my wedding day the day after, not that I will have any finals on that Friday or even Thursday, but hard to concentrate on studying when you''re getting married in just a few days. Plus, I''d want a few days to wrap up any last minute details and relax, if possible.
So, the next Saturday is the 13th, which I just didn''t really like the sound of... Is that weird?
So, now it''s down to the 20th, which sounds great to me, or the 27th, which is Memorial Day weekend. At first I thought no way would I want to do it Memorial weekend ~ don''t want to interfere with people''s holiday, etc. But then I thought it may be a good idea because I still want the wedding to have a destination wedding kind of feel (everyone get together on Friday night, girls do spa stuff on Saturday morning, guys do fishing or golf, then the wedding & reception Saturday evening) with the convenience for most people of only having to travel a couple/few hours. And, that would still leave them with Sunday and Monday to travel back home or do their own thing for the holiday weekend ~ still plenty of time to go hang out at the lake or whatever...
And, if it does turn out to be inconvenient for some people... Well, hate to say it but that might give us a little breathing room in our budget...
So, if you were invited to a wedding on Memorial Day weekend, would it bug you or tick you off???
