I knew I wanted July and when I realized July 7th was a Saturday, that had to be it. I just love 07/07/07 plus the fact that we will be together 7 years in 2007.

I wanted the hall to be decorated for Christmas, but didn't want it too close to Christmas....I chose the 1st day the hall is done

We started with good times to go to Tahiti...LoL

Then narrowed it from there. And I wanted something when it wasn't too hot and wasn't with alot of birthdays/anniversaries..

I chose Aug. 4th 2007 because it gave me time to save $$$ and also I'm in nursing school and August is the only month I have off and I didn't want to postpone my honeymoon.

My fh wanted our dating date of June ,27 but it is on a wednesday so we went with the Friday June 29th because we wanted a night time wedding but not as expensive as a Saturday wedding./

We originally wanted Sept 29th, 2007. That was the date of the first time FH told me he loved me. But when the church was booked, we decided to have it in May so we could go to the Carribbean on our honeymoon. My brother is also graduating with his master's that month, so we did the end of May so we could be there.

no real reason....just i knew we'd never be able to have a wedding in prime time! So we went w/ winter so we can try and save $$

Re: How did everybody...

I wanted a nighttime wedding too..but my situation is a bit diferent. My wedding location is pretty far..so I didnt want everyone driving to and from the wedding location late at night...so I went for a sat after (3pm) and the wedding ends at 8:30pm

I tried that but considering we're having a 2.5 year engagement, those calculations wouldn't work anyway since my cycle keeps changing.

We wanted nice weather so Spring is my favorite season. May has too many graduations, mothers day and my mom's birthday so we picked closest to May but still in April.

Same here...I knew I wanted it in March or April. So I calculated when I was going to get it so I could plan it to not be that week or the week before (in case I hade any PMS bloating or breakouts) OR the week after so I wouldnt have it on the Honeymoon. The hall we loved had a date that worked and we were booked!

Re: How did everybody...

For us it was about convenience for us and our guests. We wanted a Saturday night that wasn't around the holidays or particularly deep into the summer when the traffic towards LI on the weekends is a nightmare. The hall had a Sat night in early May available and that was it
