did your guests have issues with it? I am thinking about it to save money but I know my family and friends might give me a warm time

my wedding was on Thursday and everyone we wanted made. It may have been difficult for some but we sent Save the Dates well and advance and we so overjoyed with our guest for being with us that day. I was stuck on the significance of my date so I just went with the idea of having a Thursday wedding.

I remember your wedding. You looked like a celebrity. So gorgeous. I didn't know it was a thursday. nice

Thank you!!! 50% were from Out of Town

It is going to be difficult for families and friends who have work the next day in addition to running late since most likely they will be coming from work. Do what you must in order to cut back if it is out of your budget. Fridays and weekends are expensive, however, Sundays tends to be a bit slower so depending on the venue, the hall mgr may or may not cut some slack. A lot of venues charge less on weekdays since most weddings are held on Fridays, weekends and holidays. I say go for it esp since times are really hard with the economy now.

another plus for thursday weddings- most of your preferred vendors will not be booked for your date, so theres no worry about booking super early to reserve the date.
