Couples getting married on August 13, 2021

Crystal, on November 6, 2019 at 9:39 AM Posted in Planning 2 21

Hi Fellow "Friday the 13th" wedding pals! I'm fairly new to the site and sort of put our planning on hold as it became a bit stressful. I just wanted to introduce myself and see how the rest of your planning is coming along. My name is Crystal and my Fiance is Johnny. We live in North Dakota and have been together for a year and a half. We were engaged on 8/21/19

Congrats to all of you Smiley smile

    Congratulations on your engagement Crystal! Don't worry, you have plenty of time to plan. We got engaged on 06/29/19 and our wedding is 02/23/20. Wedding planning can definitely get overwhelming, so make sure to give yourself a breather every now and then and take a break from it all Smiley smile

    Hey Crystal Smiley smile

    I’m sorry to hear you’ve been feeling a little stressed with planning. Taking a break is definitely one of the best ways to deal with this!

    Is there any in particular we can help or offer some guidance on?

    Thank you! And no. Not right at this second. I slowed down with my planning just to get my footing back. I have children so I felt like I needed to refocus a bit. I have a long time to plan still.

    Hey Crystal! We have the same wedding date! I’ve been with my fiancé Roger, for 11 years now. (Better late than never 🤷‍♀️) We both live on Long Island, and haven’t started planning not one thing yet! We’re obviously very good at procrastinating! So don’t stress girl! Over 500 days to plan! You got this!

    Also getting married 08/13/21! Feeling a bit less stressed after taking a break for a couple of months to reassess what my FH & I want to do and not what our parents want. We are sacrificing a formal wedding in order to have much family and friends as we can by going with a more a non traditional party instead. Even if we have 50 or 200 people we will still be happy. Currently trying to find my dress to say yes to. Good luck to you in your planning!

    I’m a new 8/13/21 bride - we rescheduled from 8/15/20 (due to covid). I’m excited to share this lucky Friday the 13th with you all!

    Are you worried about bad luck? March and August 13th was the only available dates left for our perfect venue. We are taking deposit tomorrow morning. There may be a cancellation for May 7th but otherwise we have to take the 13th.

    No. I'm not.

    13 is my lucky number. My fiance is Greek and the number is also good luck to them. We also looked into the type of moon, and the way the planets align (for people who believe in that stuff. I necessarily don't) and all of them are good.

    Also 8+13 = 21 (8-13-2021).

    We got engaged on 8-21-2019.

    I love horror movies and Friday the 13th is one of my favorites.

    Friday's costs of weddings and everything needed are considerably cheaper than a saturday.

    Superstition is dumb, to me.

    Its so tough with everyone wanting you to do what THEY think you should do. We have also had so much unsolicited advice, and just people thinking we should do this or that cuz it's SOOOO much cheaper. It almost makes me feel as though they're insulting us thinking we don't deserve to have a beautiful day, with their 'ideas'. Frustrating!!! It sounds as if your wedding will be perfect and just the way you want it to be. Smiley smile Congrats to you as well and good luck with the hunt for your dress! Smiley smile It's such an exciting time!

    Hi Ladies!

    Fellow 8/13/21 bride, just wondering if anyone who is currently planning worried about the possibility of rescheduling? Things seem to be changing so often I am worried about having to reschedule due to how much will need to be paid up front for the wedding venue.
