Thinking of changing my date UPDATED

I am thinking of changing my date.... the reasons that I chose a July date are no longer valid, and now the date might actually be conflicting... Does anyone know how May/June rates compare to July?

ETA:
So I went to Westbury manor today, andthey told me the rates are the same.. What do you girls think of May 28th? Thats the sunday of Memorial Day weekend. I think its nice people won't have to worry about work on Monday. My mom is worried that people will be ticked off they can't plan vacations for that weekend.

I think they are pretty much the same. Im just taking what was quoted to me from 3 different places and between June-August they were the same unless it was a Fri/Sat nite difference.

Re: Thinking of changing my date

I am pretty sure the prices are the same...It is worth asking though

Re: Thinking of changing my date

Yea I agree the difference would only be fri or sat night. I think the prices are the same for those months.

Edited for spelling.

I went with the first week in May because at my hall, the 'high season' rates go into effect after Mother's Day. We're the week before, and we're saving about $25/head.

I don't think that the month matters, I think just the day of the week. Good Luck!

I know at the Westbury Manor, the rates go up to 'prime' the first weekend of May, which they quoted me at being about $110 for Sat. nite.

Re: Thinking of changing my date

I think it might depend on the hall...one place we looked at peakseason started in April the others started in May, so it might be the same.

Re: Thinking of changing my date

I wanted Fri night on Memorial day Wkend and found the prices were crazy. When I found the hall I loved I changed the date to last weekend in April and saved $50 p/p. WOW! that was great!
She said May, June, and July are hot months, anytime in May, even the first and second weekends. So April it is.
Good Luck!

Re: Thinking of changing my date

I think May would be the same price as June or July. It all depends on the hall.

Re: Thinking of changing my date

one hall i called in the city has the same price for every single day of one month... meaning... a monday wedding is the same price as a saturday wedding of the same month. in the case of that hall, the entire month of july was cheaper than june.

yeah, sounds good to me. STD's so people can plan to have a holiday at home!!! have a few people throw bbq's or something to keep it festive!

Yah...you'll be married sooner!!!

Re: Thinking of changing my date UPDATED

personally I wouldn't do a holiday weekend. People usually get annoyed that they have to give up there whole weekend for a wedding.

But that's just my opinion.

Re: Thinking of changing my date UPDATED

I think OOT guests would appreciate having a wedding on a weekend. I wouldn't mind going to a wedding during Memorial Day weekend. I never do anything that weekend anyway.
