Re: How did you pick your wedding date?

we wanted to get married in either march or april because I get really sick in the heat... so while we wanted a fall wedding at first (we got engaged 11/18/07 and didn't want to rush for fall 08... and didn't want to wait two years for fall 09 so we comprised on a different COOLER time of the year) March 21st.. just happened to be available at a great price at Giorgios

Re: How did you pick your wedding date?

I thought september would have great weather and I didnt want to honeymoon potentially in the hurricane season. Also, I didnt want it too close to our bdays in May.

Re: How did you pick your wedding date?

I wanted an early summer wedding. I am a teacher and work until the end of June so the next date would be July 3rd but I didn't want it around July 4th and then the next earliest Friday was July 10th. It is one week away from my FH's birthday and it was open!!!! After that it was too late in July and I wouldn't doo August.

Re: How did you pick your wedding date?

we got engaged just before this xmas..i originally wanted a may or june wedding..but if that was the case, it would have had to be 2010..cause 09 just seemed too soon. upon thinking about it, i compromised and said oct 09, since it gave us a few more months....we wanted a sunday, and the beginning of oct..so thus oct 11...which turns out to be columbus day weekend...

We just picked a day that worked best for us. I wanted summer and early fall and this date worked out. My only advice is when you know u want a date BOOK IT! B/c if you wait it may get picked up by someone else quickly...

We went with the date that was most affordable for us and that didn't have any other conflicts. It wasn't special before, but it sure is now!!

Re: How did you pick your wedding date?

I never wanted a winter wedding, i wanted a fall or spring...the fall was too expensive for us, and i didnt want the spring because i wanted alittlle more time for us to save $$$$...so we picked the summer

Re: How did you pick your wedding date?

We wanted the look of Christmas without the price of a Christmas wedding. So we booked it for 2 days after New Years. All of the decor is still up and it's $35 cheaper per person.

Re: How did you pick your wedding date?

We really wanted a fall wedding and always loved Oct. We went with a Friday night wedding, since they are a little cheaper. We wanted the 2nd of Oct, because I don’t deal well with the cold and figured the later in Oct it is the colder. Plus, it starts getting darker out earlier each week.

Re: How did you pick your wedding date?

I originally wanted a June wedding, due to the weather and our schedules. Oheka only had Saturdays in July or May, so we originally had July 11th. It then came to my attention that my internship could start in July, which would mean rushing any last minute stuff and postponing the honeymoon. I called Oheka to see if we could switch to May, and they had June 6th available, which was totally perfect. So to sum all that up, it came down to the RH's availability, my and FH's availability, having a Saturday for guests, and the warm but not too hot weather.

Re: How did you pick your wedding date?

Halloween is my favorite holiday, our dating anniversary is the day before and I always wanted a fall wedding.

Re: How did you pick your wedding date?

We got engaged on 9/21/07 ... If you flip the 21 you get 12. So our wedding date is 9/12/09.

Re: How did you pick your wedding date?

we originally wanted 8/15/09, but then FBIL set a date for their wedding for a week later, 8/22/09. we knew we couldn't get married a week before them, but with school starting in September 09 and going straight through w/out any breaks until August 2010, we knew it had to be in 2009. May was the earliest we felt we could do it without having the families attend too many weddings around the same time. and Saturday, May 23, 2009 was the only Saturday day the Vineyard could offer us in the time period.

Re: How did you pick your wedding date?

we really wanted a fall wedding. so we thought of October. then we figured that 10/10/09 is Columbus Day Weekend and that would be great for us and for the guest. i'm so happy. i can't wait.

Re: How did you pick your wedding date?

October is my favorite month and we wanted to do a Saturday night but couldnt afford it, so decided on the friday before columbus so people get a three day weekend

Re: How did you pick your wedding date?

We wanted a May wedding, our anniversary is May 4, so we thought it be nice to keep it in may.

Re: How did you pick your wedding date?

We wanted a holiday weekend so that people could make a mini-vacation out of it . . . we'll have mostly out of towners (including us!) and Columbus Day is my birthday, along with October being the month EVERYTHING happened in our family, so I thought I'd mix it up and do something in the Spring! It would've been '08 if we could've gotten our hall the same night this year . . . .

Re: How did you pick your wedding date?

I picked September because I didn't want it to be too hot or too cold and I love fall color combos. We didn't want Labor Day Weekend and the 19th is a jewish holiday (my dad's side is jewish), the 26th is 2 days after FH's birthday and 2 days before FFIL's birthday so I didn't want that. So, the 12th it is!

Re: How did you pick your wedding date?

Originally FH & I wanted to get married in Oct/Nov of 08 but everything was booked. So i said well lets do it in May/June of 09.

He agreed & then it just so happened that Fox Hollow had Valentine's Day open & well we booked it! What a grea day for a wedding! lol
