**** 11/06/08 FUN WEDDING FACT *****

According to English folklore, Saturday, the most popular American choice, is the unluckiest day to marry!

Monday for wealth
Tuesday for health
Wednesday the best day of all
Thursday for losses
Friday for crosses
Saturday for no luck at all


Advice on which month to marry in is given by the following rhyme:

Married when the year is new, he'll be loving, kind and true.
When February birds do mate, You wed nor dread your fate.
If you wed when March winds blow, joy and sorrow both you'll know.
Marry in April when you can, Joy for Maiden and for Man.
Marry in the month of May, and you'll surely rue the day.
Marry when June roses grow, over land and sea you'll go.
Those who in July do wed, must labour for their daily bred.
Whoever wed in August be, many a change is sure to see
Marry in September's shrine, your living will be rich and fine.
If in October you do marry, love will come but riches tarry.
If you wed in bleak November, only joys will come, remember.
When December snows fall fast, marry and true love will last.
Marry in May and you'll live to rue the day

ok so I'm going to be unlucky but only joys will come - I think I'm going to choose to believe the month part and not the day of the week part

Well I guess I'm set to be wealthy because we're getting married on a Monday (Labor Day, it's not so weird!) and in September.

Not that money is all that important...just ironic that both point towards wealth.
