Sunday weddings??

I have never been to a Sunday wedding. My mom frowned upon this because she said people go to church on Sundays. I would attend a Sunday wedding (I don't go to church). If I were local I would prefer it it were during the day, if I was traveling I wouldn't care either way because I would need to take a day off of work whether it was Saturday or Sunday.

I have been to a couple sunday weddings. Just be aware of the end time of the reception for local people who may need to go to work the next day.

Even if hte wedding were on a saturday people needing to travel any long distance would probably have to take friday off anyway.

We had a Sunday wedding and everything went great. Everyone was either staying nearby or local so we were still able to end a little late.

I have only been to one Sunday wedding and it was during labor day weekend so we had Monday off. I know we could only attend one if it were in town and we probably wouldn't stay the whole time even if it were in town because fh would have to work on Monday morning. I think it is fine to do a Sunday wedding as long as you are okay with some people not being able to make it and people leaving early if you were planning it for the evening.

I'm having a Sunday wedding. I agree with pp though, be aware that some may leave early if it gets to be too late. And don't wait too long to feed your guest, most won't eat between church service and your wedding, if they go to church. I have accepted that some may leave my reception early due to their Monday work hours.

We had a Sunday wedding, and I have many to numerous Sunday weddings prior to ours. Our ceremony was at 3pm and the reception ended at 9. And FWIW, our reception venue books Sundays regularly.

To be honest, I know it isn't going to be the popular answer on this post, but I would be annoyed if I was invited to a wedding on a Sunday. I like to relax and recover from the weekend on the day before I have to go back to work. I feel like it would throw off my whole week. Not to mention it would be super inconvenient if I was traveling for your wedding. I would have to take off Monday.

I'd always wanted a Saturday wedding, but once we got engaged and started looking for our venue, we realized that all Saturdays were taken except for really weird timing, it was either too cold or too hot, thanksgiving weekend, etc.., and we just did not want to go through all that. I get cold very easily and I refused to have a wedding on December 23, for instance! Or expecting people to skip their Thanksgiving dinner with their families just to show up at my wedding.

So... that left us with a Sunday wedding and it turns out, everyone is happy with it!

I like to think things ahead, so I consulted with a few friends/relatives, etc.., to make sure that they would be able to attend and EVERYONE said it was totally fine with them AND that this would not be their first Sunday wedding to attend.

Good luck!

Sunday weddings are fine as long as you give your guests enough notice! I've been to several. Not a huge fan of them because sometimes it's hard for me to take off the next day and I like to party lol But I always attend and have fun.

We are having a Friday wedding. I was hesitant at first but the venue I was in love with was booked on Saturdays for the year and I didn't see the point in dragging things out. I researched other venues and played the Friday idea off with some family friends. Someone gave me the best advice in that the people you love and that love you will show up no matter when your wedding is. The people that won't show up are probably ones that don't matter the most anyway. I say if the date is special and that's what you want then you go for it!

I had a Sunday wedding and it was great. My experience is that if you are having a wedding on a Saturday OOT guest still have to travel and will have to take a day off so for my Sunday wedding friends took off Monday instead of Friday. It was an evening wedding with dancing and drinking and was over by 11:30 ish. You just have to know your crowd. I think a handful of people left early but overall it was a good experience and I saved a couple thousand dollars.

The venue we chose is a 2.5 hour drive for EVERYONE and our choices were Friday or Sunday because all Sats were booked 1.5 years out (unless we wanted to get married in the dead of winter).

Sunday was the best choice for us.

We're doing a late afternoon ceremony so people can choose to stay, drive, or make a whole weekend out of it. We're ending it early enough that they can even drive back home that night if they want.

Surprisingly, most are staying into monday without an issue.

We're having a Sunday wedding as well., The trick is to give your guests enough of a notice so they can plan accordingly.

I'm having a Sunday wedding. We're not big Partiers so cutting short before 10 is perfect for us and we're leaving the next day for our honeymoon. Ceremony is at 3:30 so after all church services , and the reception is 4-8 with a cocktail hour. Maybe until 9 depending on how it's going. We didn't choose Sunday first but every venue near us was booked every Saturday, so we thought about a Sunday wedding and it suited us a bit more.

I'm having a Sunday wedding with an end time around 9pm

I would be fine with a Sunday wedding (nearby) but would prefer afternoon. I wouldn't stay late on a Sunday evening

I'm getting married on a Sunday. It was a discounted day. I just made it from 3pm to 8pm. All my family and FH's family are church goers, nobody seems to have a problem with it, including my pastor who's officiating.

I am having my wedding on a Sunday. We have our reception ending around 7:30 so everyone is home by a decent time to go to work the next day. Everyone we have talked to seems to be okay with the idea of the wedding being on a Sunday

We're having a Sunday wedding, and most of our guests are OOT. It does back up onto Spring Break, which helps, but I also know a few guests are only staying for the ceremony or will be leaving early.

We are having a Sunday brunch wedding and everyone seems very excited about it. A special date for us too. I think it's perfectly fine as long as you are aware of travel and time.
