Sunday vs Saturday Wedding

Most guests may leave by 10pm but you could have it earlier on a Sunday.

My Sunday evening (non holiday weekend) wedding ended at 9:30 and almost everyone stayed until the end. I think this is a know your crowd type thing but for us, and our guests, it made sense.

We're doing the sunday of a long weekend to save money, and it worked out for our friends. We are all actors and monday is the universal day off.

' you have to do what is best for you. you can always choose to do a slightly earlier ceremony and end around 9 or 10 instead of 11 or 12pm. Then just let people know if you will be at a nearby bar or have a small after party somewhere for the people who want to keep celebrating.

Sunday weddings are pretty common, lots of Jewish couples have sunday weddings for religious reasons, and a lot of couples now a days are choosing to do "off" day weddings because of saving money. You do whats best for you and your VIPs. If you know a lot of your guests work on saturdays and sundays work better I see no problem with it. I wouldn't have an issue attending a sunday wedding

ETA: We are planning our timeline so we end around 10:30pm. A little later maybe then non holiday weekend weddings but still a little earlier than a saturday wedding.

Depends on what's more important to the two of you. Saving some money or the possibility of people leaving early. An afternoon wedding on Sunday might be the best compromise. If you do it early Sunday you may have people complain about missing church. I'd say after 1pm would be a safe time. And hey, they should already be dressed up if they are going to church first...

It really depends on your guests. If a lot of them are OOT and have traditional Monday-Friday jobs, they will have to take time off and that can be a real hardship. But if everyone is local, it isn't as big of a deal and can really make sense!

We considered Sunday and then changed it to Friday because we assumed people don't mind leaving work a little earlier and will be up for a party

I think doing it on a Sunday would be okay if it were starting fairly early.

I'm having a sunday wedding it's way cheaper and my wedding will be over by 9 but it's their prerogative if they take off monday. I would but it's up to them.

Yes, nothing beats a Saturday night.

We are having a Sunday wedding. We also received a nice discount from the venue. Our ceremony will start at 3 and we plan on the reception ending at 10.

I'm doing mine on a Sunday savings is worth it and I'm doing a brunch so timing isn't an issue for me. What ever makes you happy go for it.

We do Sundays every week; part of it is money, part of it it the lack of Saturday nights...Many of my venues are fully booked for all of next year on Saturday. (And usually, the Sundays before a Monday holiday are not discounted...)

We're doing a Sunday wedding with the Monday after being a holiday.

You can do early on Sunday I would not recommend late

My venue offers the same pricing for Sunday and Friday. Friday could be a better option if you want to have a late wedding. If you don't mind holding an earlier wedding then I'd go with sunday.

Start a little earlier and it'll work out great

Do a Sunday wedding. Half price? That's a no-brainer to me. Both weddings I attended in the past year were on Sundays. Nobody left early. There were still DJs and bars (one was cash...don't do that). There was still dancing at both. Some had to creep out after dinner but the vast majority of the guest stayed. Both wrapped up by about 11.

I'm doing Sunday. Originally it was because it was cheaper. I then chose it because I prefered the date/month and everything is already getting booked up.

I'm having mine at 6:30pm on a Sunday. I've let people know on my website that I understand if they can't stay for the reception but I'd be glad if they could.

I had a sunday wedding. some left early some stayed. i ended it by 11 but you could start it and end it sooner.
