My fiancé and I picked a Date for our wedding , but then my maid of honor mentioned that it’s the same day as our mutual friends dating anniversary. While we have no sentimental attachment to our date we picked it does have a spiritual meaning (10/10 the number of completion). Our mutual friend doesn’t seem happy that this is the day we picked because she planned on getting married on that day also (she is not engaged yet). Should I just suck it up and change the date to appease her? Or should I stand my ground because I truely love this day and I really don’t have a problem with her getting married on it later in life?

Keep the date. It can be hard to find a date that nothing is going on. My friends mom who is coming to our weddings Bday is on our wedding. My friend said her mom is excited.

I wouldn't even bring it up with her. If you do, she's going to try to talk you out of it. Why open that can of worms?

Keep your date! She’s isn’t even engaged yet lol hahaha. I think sometime people are so selfish. No one OWNS a date and I think a really friend would be totally ok with you having the same anniversary.

If your friend is upset about that, she's not your friend. It's not like she's getting married on the exact same day, and she chose that day first. That isn't even the situation here. She's being way too petty, and that's the day you and your partner want. So keep it!!! She should be supporting you, not trying to make you switch your date. You're getting married, not her. All the best!!
