Re: Monday Wedding????
I would really like a daytime labor day wedding, especially if part of it (cocktail hour) was outdoors.

If it's a holiday Monday, than it's like a Sunday wedding. Why not? But, if it's a holiday, I bet they'll charge like they would for a regular Sunday.

Its not such a crazy idea right?!
the weather sould be nice, mostly everyone is off from work, not to mention a major discount for having the reception on a weekday.
I wasn't sure at first, but Im thonking its a pretty good idea!

Are you sure you get a discount?
From your profile I guess you have already booked.
I don't think it's a bad idea. I agree it's really no different than a Sunday wedding.

i think it depends. do you have a lot of OOT's? if so - then i don't think the monday of labor day is good - airfare would be higher than usual, as it is a holiday. also - i would be surprised if you got a discount - i would think any hall would treat it like a regular weekend.

I think it will be OK. My parents want to have our wedding on the Thursday night because its supposed to be really formal (or something like that), but im afraid no one will come.

Most places will probably offer you a great price for a Monday/Holiday wedding. I say go for it!!!

I am having my wedding on the Sunday before Labor Day. My FIL's just mentioned to us about traffic. I guess whoever wants to come will make the effort.
About pricing, only one place tried to charge me DOUBLE because it was a holiday weekend. The manager said he pays his guys time and a half to be there. I think it is a lie and a scam...needless to say we didn't go with him but just be careful. I guess you already booked though.![]()

As someone else mentioned, I think it depends if you have a lot of OOT guests - I was invited to a destination wedding last Labor Day Monday and a LOT of people (Including me) didn't go - airfare was horrendous and it was too much to get back very late that night and be working at HS the next day! JMO...

I went to a daytime Memorial Day (Monday) wedding. It was fine and the couple got a crazy discount.

My best friend got married on a Tuesday--July 4 2000. We had a great time and even though I only work in the city, I took the next day off.

I have a wedding this year on Memorial Day and I am not thrilled about it... JMO, I know it saves people money, but I am not a big fan of holiday weddings.

I went to a wedding in NJ last Memorial Day. I dont know about the discount or anything but there were a lot of people there. I guess it depends how close you are to the couple.
