We picked our date based on what our venue had available. Oddly enough we had meet in March abd it just do happens to be exactly 5 years to the day from when we first winked at each other. Lol
Nope, it is literally one of two days our venue had open this spring. I picked it because if I had picked the other option my BFF would have had to choose between my wedding and a vacation she had already bought plane tickets for.
We are getting married on July 27 and our date does have a special meaning! The first time my FH came down to visit me was on July 31(also the day of our first kiss LOL), but we wanted out wedding on a weekend so we picked the 27th.

Not really. I didn't want want to get married the month before because of my cousin's graduation. I didn't want people who were traveling to skip one or the other because they were so close together, It looks like there is only one aunt who told my cousin to her face she was choosing my wedding -__- I get it but that was not polite. (She was actually really cool about it. Told me I could have her. lol)
We settled on June. We wanted it late enough in June to give the gap with the graduation. The week before would have been the anniversary of my Grandpa's death and the week after...conflicted with something. I don't remember. So even though it's the day before my best friends birthday she gave her okay for the date.
Ours is 1/17/19. And nothing special about the date. Turns out they are prime #'s but we just didn't want our wedding and future anniversaries to land on anyone else's day like birthdays and such.
Originally we wanted to get married in the fall around October 2017, but our venue was already very booked. We noticed that the "winter" wedding times were the least expensive and since we're paying for most of the wedding with some help from my mom, we decided to do the very last date included as a winter date. March 31st.
It didn't really have any special meaning, but it will after we're married! And I like the way the numbers look 03.31.18 -The second number is the first number of the next.

In a way ours does. I wanted to get married in August because my FH and I both have parents who have been married 30+ years who were married in August. Then the 25th was a Saturday. And we are both born on the 25th of our birthday month (May 25th and Dec 25th) So I find some good mojo in our wedding date 8/25/18
11/11 just happened to be the only holiday-weekend Sunday that our venue had available. But we later found out that it was also the day my FH's grandparents had their first blind date together! Not to mention, 11/11 sounds cool
Our date sort of doesn't and sort of does have special meaning. We're getting married on 9/9/18. We liked that 9 + 9 = 18. I also thought this simple date would make it easier for my FH to remember our anniversary. The special side to the date is that it is the first day of Rosh Hashanah this year. My FH and I are not religious, but FMIL (and a few people still left from her side of the family) are Jewish. They all loved the date for our wedding and we are going to incorporate a Rosh Hashanah tradition into our cocktail hour: apples and honey. I've heard the apple is eaten for a number of reasons: Ancient Jewish people believed apples had healing properties, apples were a symbol of the Jewish people in relationship to God, it is a symbolic fruit in the Bible. And the honey signifies the hope for a sweet new year.
We chose New Year’s Eve of 2018 for our adults only wedding. We had attended a nye wedding a few years ago and really had a great time. The dress code for our wedding will be formal. I’m actually surprised that so many of our guests are super excited about a dressy, kids free night!
Our Wedding is 01-19-19. My birthday is 01-20. And That’s when we first started dating .☺️ He wanted it to all be on one day but we dont want to get married on a Sunday so we picked the day before ☺️
