Trying to pick my date - Do vendors charge more for Sat?

I'm pretty sure I have my location and it's a house where the day (Sat or Sun) doesn't matter. I've heard that venues usually charge more for Sat weddings but do vendors charge more too?

    In my experience, venues charge less for Fridays/Sundays than Saturdays. Some caterers do, as well. But I haven't noticed that photographers or DJs provide any discounts depending on the day.

    Sundays and weekdays are usually cheaper. Go for a mid week wedding.

    I'm pretty sure my vendors have the same price for any day except the actual venue.

    I read cheap days are mon thru Thursday cheap. Fri to Sunday costly. But brunch reception cheap any day. I was going with a brunch reception at first but we decided to have a destination wedding. Good luck!

    Saturday evening will cost the most for a venue. I don't think other vendors typically charge based on the day, you're paying for their time.

    My time is my time, so my fee does not vary based on day or season. My fee depends on how far I have to travel.

    Some of the venues I researched discounted for non Saturday weddings. However, I didn't notice any other vendors discounting based on day of the week.

    My vendors were less expensive since my wedding is on a Sunday.

    Every vendor I researched did charge more for a Saturday. Sundays were the cheapest day and Fridays were in the middle. That was just my experience though!
