I was talking with my aunt on the phone the other day, she was asking what our current plans are. I told her that because of money (or lack there of) we have to push it back to next year. Trying to make me feel better, she said, "Oh you don't want to get married in an odd-numbered year, anyway!"
I wondered if there was some folklore I never heard of before. A lot of googling got me little other than a lot of state law codes and election info, but I did see this article, which stated, "The only problem so far seems to be booking weddings on odd-numbered days. Chinese have a custom of marrying on even-numbered days: The word for "even" is the same as the word for "pair" while the word for "odd" is the same as the word for "single." No one wants to get married on an odd-numbered date for fear that it will mean bad luck for the marriage."
Has anyone ever heard of this odd numbered day/year stuff?
