Sunday Weddings

I'm getting married on a Sunday! Our ceremony starts at 6 and then our reception is to follow right after. The people who truly want to be there will make sure they are there so I'm not really bothered with it.

I think you should do it. Your family and friends want to celebrate that day with you so there will be there regardless of which day you choose. & budget wise, if it saves you $1,000, then good. You can use that money on something else.

The only comment I will make is that guests may not stay as late because they may have work the next morning. Personally I have a lot of Catholic family who will not miss church even to attend my wedding. So I decided on Saturday.

Do it!! I got married on a Tuesday (DW so it's not really the same)

We got married on a Sunday. No complaints from anyone. Almost everyone stayed the entire night, and I had OOT guests who would have had to take a day off work to fly out either way, so them having to take Monday off wasn't an issue.

I've been to a handful of Sunday weddings. We were between a friday wedding and a Sunday wedding because we wanted more of a party/it's the beginning of the weekend feeling. Sunday weddings tend to have a more laidback vibe but are wonderful nonetheless. Just be prepared to see some guests leave early so they can get to work in the morning.

Never heard of a Sunday wedding? We do them every single weekend from March through November. Generally, the ceremony is between 11:00 AM and 3:00, so the party is way over by 10:00 PM or before.

Go for it!

It's just too easy to say that the people who want to be here will be there. Some won't be able to make it and be at work the next day. Just be ok with that.

I got married on a Sunday. It was great. If that's the venue of your dreams, I say, go for it!

Justkiddig.....i understand completely. Having snacks for guest while waiting for the bridal party is part of my plans. I learned from my daughter's wedding to feed the guest while they wait for the photo shoot to finish. Lol

I would love to attend a Sunday wedding if it was more mid-day with a brunch feel. I would not want to attend one that was late and caused me to be sleepy on Monday for work.

Our wedding is on a Sunday!! Our wedding is at the aquarium and we can't start until 6pm but we're happy. No one told us they couldn't make it because it was Sunday either. Everyone either took off or is leaving extra early.

Weddings on a Sunday aren't as rare. Lots of couples opt for a Friday or Sunday to save on cost. Same venue you would have on Sunday at a lot less, not bad. Sunday weddings are also common for some religions over their Saturday counterparts.

My wedding was on a Sunday in the early evening (4-9pm) and no one complained about the timing. They were able to leave early enough if they wanted to (but majority stayed until the end) and OOT guests enjoyed a full weekend in the area before the wedding.

I just came back from a Sunday evening wedding (5-11; shuttle picked us up at 3:45) wedding, and it was gorgeous. But it really threw off my entire week. I had to work on Monday, and I was exhausted and just wished I had a day to recover afterwards. So I would recommend an earlier wedding time for a Sunday wedding.

My wedding is on a Sunday as well. The date we wanted on a Saturday was booked but I absolutely wanted this venue so we settled for a Sunday date, just a week shy of our 10 year anniversary (since dating!). My ceremony is beginning at 2pm and the end of the reception will end at 9pm. I do have plenty of out of town family so I know it's a lot for them to take the time to attend our wedding so I'm trying to make it worth their travels (plated steak dinners, lots of hor d'ouevres, open bar, etc). I'm sending my STDs out at the end of this year to give them plenty of notice in hopes they'll be able to attend.

My wedding will be on a Sunday! We arranged it where it would be the Sunday before Columbus Day in DC; most of our local guests will have that Monday off (for the govt holiday) and OOT guests will just miss a Monday rather than that Friday (that they would miss for a Saturday wedding).

We'll see how it works out!

We specifically picked a Sunday wedding. It worked for us, and our friends and family best. We decided to do it on a holiday weekend so that we could run a little later but are still ending around 10:30pm for the official reception. We will be partying afterwards at a bar for anyone who can and wants to stay out later.

I recommend just checking with your VIPs first, but if it works for you and your family go for it!

Got my venue for 1/4 the price! We are doing a 2:00 wedding so people can attend church and still get home early.

We are doing a Sunday wedding. They really are not as rare anymore. We wanted a Saturday in September and the venue was booked all Saturday's from august-November.

We went Sunday as well for many reasons.

I truly wanted a brunch wedding because I love brunch. But also because the venues food, beverage, and decorations minimum was cut in half to go Sunday versus Saturday. It's a huge difference.
