New years Eve wedding

OK need some opinions here from the LIW girls.
FH and I have thought about changing our wedding date to N.Y.E and I was curious what everyone thought...I always felt like it would be imposing on ppl's holiday plans to have a wedding that night. On the flip side we thought it would be cool b/c not everyone actually does stuff on New Years and it would be fun. He & love the idea, and I know that's all that should matter but I want to be realistic about everything....

As someone who rarely has fun plans for New Year's Eve, I think it would be fun to have a wedding to go to on that date! How are the prices for that night? Good luck with your decision!

Re: New years Eve wedding

i never have anything fun to do on NYE i would love to get dressed up and go to a wedding!

a few things just popped into my head though- just some things that I would do if my wedding was on NYE

you should do a countdown at midnight so ask your hall how they would help you out with this. . .
maybe set up a TV for a few seconds so you can watch the ball drop?

I would consider inviting everyone with a guest ( i am already doing this BUT i know a lot of people only invite guests if they are in a long term relationship) bc you know how important that 'midnight kiss' is to people!

HTH!

Re: New years Eve wedding

Thanks girls..I'm thinking of having a company come in with plasma tv's for the midnight toast, and all that fun stuff!! The downside, the price is going to be high I think, and the ppl at the catering hall could be miserable....I think I'm going to seriously start to research pricing for that night and I'll let you all know how I make out

Re: New years Eve wedding

Great Idea. A friend of mine just booked New Year's they were able to negoitate great prices, just book everything early, especially the DJ or Band and limos they book up fast that night. Good luck!
