Whatever works for you is what you should do. All the best, let us know

Re: friday at 1pm

I am new to the board and one of my first posts is going ot be about the same thing - having an early Friday afternoon cremnony and reception.

As a guest at many Friday night receptions, I would take the whole day off anyway to get ready, to travel etc. and it's a great start to a long weekend. Plus, everyone who is a guest already loves you guys and will be happy I'm sure to come anytime. Good luck !!

Re: friday at 1pm

If you were a family member or good friend, I would just take off from work and that would be it. This is a once in a lifetime event, and that's how I would look at it. But if it weren't a great friend of mine, I probably wouldn't go to the ceremony (although I know that is rude). It's hard for me to get off work, so that is the only reason why...good luck with it, and either way it will be great!!

Re: friday at 1pm

Thanks for your input ladies. Yes orginally we had a 1:30 friday wedding and it was great b/c everyone had off that day (july 5th) now we are dealing with alot let notice for people to get off if we pick this one date in early october.
Luckily, the majority of our guests are family and the rest that are friends are amazing.
And seriously we got a pretty raw deal with having to postpone so last minute and not knowing when we could rebook that everyone just wants to see us married and not worrying about things anymore.
So, once we get the heads up from the Air Force I think the 5pm on friday will be our new date.

Part of my concern is that his entire family which is about 130 people are all coming from out of state and his friends are all Air Force including our Sabor Arch guys so hopefully they will be able to work out something amazing and be able to work it out too..

Thanks for your input.

ps. I think basically on here even the girls that remember me and with the postponing last minute and just not knowing can relate and prolly want to see us just married and happy again and would do whatever..

Re: friday at 1pm

can you fill me in, why did you have to reschedule? I would say probably you can count on not a lot of people at the church if you do it this way, but your bridal party and the people who absolutely would never miss your wedding will be there, so it doesn't matter!

Re: friday at 1pm

My friend got married at 4pm on Friday and everyone had to take off anyway...so 1:30 wouldn't be that big of a deal. People who work in the city would have to take off even if you get married at 5.

Re: friday at 1pm

basically saying what has already been said, the people close to you will take off from work and go to the church and then others will not. But as long as those you really are close to are there. Dont worry about the others.

Good Luck, hope all works out, what date are you thinking or rescheduling it for?

Re: friday at 1pm

I remember your situation and I think everyone will understand. You guys really got a raw deal with not knowing weather or not everything was going to work out and then finally having to postpone so last minute. I'm sure all your family and friends know what you two have had to go through that I think they will all make their best effort to be there.
I say go for it, I'm sure they all just want to see the two of you happy.
Best of luck to you. I hope it all works out this time around.

Re: friday at 1pm

I think you have a different situation, but if I were invited to a 1 pm friday wedding...I probably would not go to the ceremony...(of course depending on who it was...my sister is getting married friday afternoons and with pictures and everything I will take the day off)

Re: friday at 1pm

This is obviously very special circumstances so people will not be upset with you. Some may not be able to take off but that is just a simple fact of life than lots of brides deal with.
I say Get Married, and have a great time!

Re: friday at 1pm

Its your wedding so do as you wish but understand that your group will most probably be much smaller so try not to be offended when people RSVP no. Also - you will get numerous complaints about it for a variety of reasons.

I wanted as many of our friends and family to celebrate with us as possible so making my wedding a convienent time and place was a priority.

But this is YOUR wedding. It doesn't matter what we think - do as you as you wish.

Re: friday at 1pm

I'm sure your friends & family fully understand everything you guys have been through & those who can get time off from work will make it their business to be there for you. Unfortunatly, some people may miss it, but due to the situation I think you should do what works for you. They can always come over & watch your video if they feel bad about missing your ceremony!!! I hope everything works out for you , good luck!(remember, you can't please all the people all the time)
