Re: What does everyone think about Friday and Sunday Weddings?
I always wanted mine on a Friday Night. The price difference was big. I think it is great. Most people have off on Sat and Sun. It works out ok. I looked into Sat and Sun days and Fri was the best price.

Re: What does everyone think about Friday and Sunday Weddings?
One advantage to a Friday evening is that you can make the whole weekend a wedding weekend or you can get an extra day or two off from work for your honeymoon!
I had a Saturday night, but that would be my second choice.

Re: What does everyone think about Friday and Sunday Weddings?
We had a Sunday afternoon wedding. I didn't want a Sunday evening wedding b/c I was afraid a lot of people would leave early. I prefer Sunday weddings over Friday weddings. I work long hours during the week and it would be too hectic to try to leave early, get dressed, and rush over to a wedding. With a Friday wedding, people may skip the ceremony in order to have more time to leave work and get ready for the wedding. The ceremony was very important to me, and I'm glad all of my guests were able to attend it.

Re: What does everyone think about Friday and Sunday Weddings?
I'm probably going to have a Friday or Sunday wedding. Saturday is too far out of my price range. I've been to plenty of Sunday weddings, and I stayed the whole time!

I love Friday night weddings! People are ready to party on friday nights, it starts off the weekend, & people are off Saturday. Some people may miss your ceremony, depending on the time it starts & work schedules.
I always see a lot of people leave Sunday night weddings early b/c of work the next day.
Forgot to quote again This is why we are havign ours on a friday night! Agreed! We felt not everyone comes to the ceremony no matter what day so why not have the party when we want to!

Re: What does everyone think about Friday and Sunday Weddings?
We are having the Sunday before Memorial Day weekend so since everyone is off the next day, its still like a Saturday.
But I'm skeptical about Friday night weddings because some people might not come, or come really late because they would have to take the day off of work to get ready and get out to your hall in time, I've known a few people that did that-or that didn't show.
I suppose if you have a Friday night wedding, have it later in the evening to ensure that people will be there on time and not miss out on the ceremony or the cocktail hour because they had to work until 5pm.

Re: What does everyone think about Friday and Sunday Weddings?
We just weren't going to be able to afford a Saturday night so we opted for a Friday instead. Our ceremony won't start until 7pm so that will give people plenty of time to get there after work. Plus, we'll have time to go home to DC before our HM.

Re: What does everyone think about Friday and Sunday Weddings?
I am having mine on a Sunday night from 6:30-11:30. I know some people may leave early but the people that are really important to me & FH like our friends and family will stay the entire night. We didnt want to pay the extra $$ for a saturday night. We also felt that for the amount of times we ask people to share such a special day with us (just this once) they would do it regardless of the time or day.

Re: What does everyone think about Friday and Sunday Weddings?
We're having a Sunday Wedding (to be honest b/c we wanted 11/11/07 to be our date ) we're having an 8 hour elegant gala (including the ime for the ceremony we're starting at either 2 or 3 that will be determined soon.... However some places wil actually charge you more for a Sunday b/c it's twilight & they can't have any other affair then yours
For us Friday night weddings are hard, we almost always miss or are late to the ceremony, just b/c FH's career is sooo demanding, even if he goes in for half a day he's there til 5 or later:
good luck w/ whatever you choose, and it's noce to consider your guest PoV but seriously this is your & FH's day, & those that love you & want to share it witrh you will do everything in their power to do so....

Re: What does everyone think about Friday and Sunday Weddings?
We are doing Friday night. I didn't want to do Sunday since everyone would have to work on Monday. Besides as said before Friday is party time. Plus I think I am getting married at the hall so that will help people with getting there. Our reception is from 8-1am.

Re: What does everyone think about Friday and Sunday Weddings?
I am having a Sundy night weding in the summer. It ends at 11:30 - not too awful.
I feel like Sundays in the summer aren't as tough on people who have to work the next day.
