PAST MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND BRIDES

Did you ladies have a good turn out with your guests, considering in was a holiday weekend? Im thinking about booking May 29th 2010 which is the saturday during Memorial Weekend, but not sure if its a good idea. Thanks for your help!

I had my wedding on the Friday of Mem Wknd...

Mostly everyone said that it was a great way to start off a holiday weekend....I agree!

The turn-out was great - no different than if I had it another time...go for it!

Im not a memorial day bride..but I would suggest sending Save the Date cards..that will definitely help out with the guest turn out..

good luck!!

I'm not a memorial day weekend bride...but I went to a wedding on a Sunday Memorial Day weekend and it was great...so many people were at the ceremony and reception. I think you'll be fine...just send out a STD.

I got married Memorial Day weekend in 2007. We really didn't have many people saying no because of vacations, our no's were mostly OOT and over seas guests. I'd say go for it. We gave out STD's at our engagment party.

I was a July 4th weekend bride. We sent out STD far in advance so everyone knew. Everyone loved having the weekend to spend time together.

We had about 125 guests come out of 180 that was invited and I think thats normal for any wedding no matter if its a holiday or not.

i THINK YOU WILL HAVE A GOOD TURN OUT. IF YOU ARE WORRIED YOU CAN SEND A SAVE THE DATE AROUND THE ONE YEAR MARK. I TOLD EVERYONE WHO WAS IMPORTANT TO MY AND MY HUSBAND WAY IN ADVANCED ABOUT OUR WEDDDING DATE SO THEY WOULDNT MAKE ANY PLANS. WE INVITED 292 AND 23O ATTENED. ANYONE WHO IS IMPORTANT TO US WAS THERE! GOOD LUCK. BTW I GOT MARRIED SUNDAY OF MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND

I had my wedding the sunday before memorial day this year and it was great. Mostly everyone was able to come- it actually worked out better for most of my OOT'ers. A few work friends have vacations panned, but mostly everyone that mattered most was there!

I'm getting married this memorial day and sent out my Save the Dates many months back. I think as long as you do that you should be fine. Not everyone goes away that weekend and if they know you are getting married they won't.

I am a future Memorial Day weekend bride, and I think the people who are important to you will be there. Just sent the STDs as everyone suggested.
