Has anyone had people make negative comments about your wedding date? My wedding isn’t until 2022 (due to COVID) so they haven’t said anything about that interfering but it is on Nov 11 which is Veterans Day and we do have 4 veterans coming to our wedding (who we asked and they said they had no issue with a wedding on that date). And once that was resolved, people started making comments about how my fiancé and I both have birthdays in late October so a wedding a few weeks later wasn’t a good idea? I don’t understand, it’s like 16-19 days later and not in the same month, is it really that big of a deal? Do you think that’s too close? Sorry for rambling, it just feels like someone always has an issue. And it’s not like our wedding is around a major holiday like thanksgiving or Christmas so I really wasn’t expecting all this push back over our wedding date. Do you agree with them that our date is problematic?

I don't think it's problematic at all. Maybe they think you will want "double" gifts because of it. I at one point had suggested my FH and I get married right in the middle of our birthdays which is 10 days apart. Fortunately neither of us wanted an August wedding so it played out well. I would ignore the comments. You can't please everyone and you'll ALWAYS displease at least 1
