New Year's Day wedding date?

[paris29]

Ok for those of you have read my past post you might already know my FF and I had planned to get married on July 29, 2011(the day we met) but now that we have decided and finally got my parents to understand that we want a small wedding only 7 people (both our parents, FF's brother, and the two of us) we want to move the wedding date up. We are trying to figure out a date. I was thinking about New Years Day, so this January 1, 2011. I know that people are doing their own thing on New's year Eve so I thought an evening wedding on the actually day of new year's would be better, that way everyone could be will rested, etc. We are both students so it is hard to find time we both have off, that isn't during the summer. What do you guys think of a New Year's Day wedding.

If all 7 guests are fine with it and can make it, I don't see why you shouldn't do it.

That sounds perfect! Every new year will be your anniversary!
If none of the 7 people have a problem, and you two are cool with it, then have a blessed wedding new years day!

Do you have to change the kind of wedding you want by moving it to the winter? I saw you mentioned Hawaii and that would be great in January, but I don't know how this would affect a non-island wedding.

If the weather difference is inconsequential and your family is up for New Year's Day, I say go for it!

I'm getting married NYE of this year. Originally I wanted NYD. After talking to lots of people on here and in real life I decided on NYE. Everyone said they would prefer to party in the new year with a wedding and that they thought everyone would be tired/hung over the next day, plus there is a huge college football game on NYD. Since you are only having 7 guests these issues may not affect the day you want. Its worth asking all 7 what they prefer if either day doesn't make a difference to you.

I think that could be really nice. Just something to think about though. I wouldn't have my wedding NYD any time in the next few years because my brother is pretty young and still quite the partier. I'm pretty sure he'd be hungover or at least really really tired at my wedding and that would really make me angry. Not sure if that will be an issue with any of your guests, but it would be for me.

I think a small New Years Day wedding would be sweet. Like everyone else says, just make sure it works for your 7 guests. If so, then I would absolutely do it!

I went to a small New Years Day wedding a few years ago for one of my very favorite couples. I was in the wedding and it was out of town. All the guests who came out on New Years Eve were invited to the home of a family member near by for the rehearsal dinner/ NYE party. It was so much fun and such a great part of the weekend. Since your wedding is also small, this could be a nice way to keep the celebration going all weekend and give everyone a great new year! Congrats to you and your SO!

Oh, I *love* that your wedding date will be 1/1/11! That looks so great!

I was going to chime in and agree that a New Years Day wedding seems great, especially for just a few people. But I see that you've already made up your mind and are going with it! Great!
