Most likely I will be having my wedding on a Friday night. 4:30 ceremony, 5:00 to 6:00 cocktail hr., 6:00 to 11:00 reception. I keep hearing from people (mostly on my FI side) that people will probably not come to your ceremony or come late because they have to work. They said I should have it on a Sunday because people are off. I really wanted a Sat night but sorry it didn't fit my budget. So many people have Friday night weddings now. I don't see the problem. Do you???

Re: Friday Night Weddings
Friday weddings are becoming much more common people will always find something to comment on, the point is do what works for you,like previous posts have said..whoever wants to be there will make sure to be there. I had a cousin who got married on a friday and unfortunately I missed the ceremony, but I made it for the cocktail hour.

Re: Friday Night Weddings
I had the same problem. I couldn't afford Carlyle's 185pp for Sat night and lvoed it there so it was between Fri and Sunday night.
I wanted Friday bc it was 10bucks cheaper but them we wound up changing to Sunday bc of a wedding we went to and we were stuck in horrible summer rush hour traffic at the time our guest would be going to the church... also no-1 was at the church bc of work...
a lot of people do friday nights, i weighed my options and felt it was better for me to do sunday night. in fact, most of the weddings we have been to lately have been friday or sunday nights
