    We are doing an early Saturday wedding. 11am ceremony, reception is over at 3:30pm. It’s saving us a few grand.

    We are doing a Saturday ceremony at 3, and reception to follow. 70 or so people and it’s super intimate but we considered a fri which was a smidge cheaper but with everyone working during the weeks, Saturday was just easier for us and everyone as well.

    Yup! Monday night. But only 15 guests, mostly retired family. Saved a ton money on our wedding and cheaper hotel costs for our guests. 👍👍

    That’s what i my thinking as well Monday -Thursday day not a weekend. I can save so much money that way. Only concern is family taking off work.

    Are guests local? A Sunday night (early) might be best, or maybe a Thur night if a lot of our-of-town guests.


    We had a DW 8 hours drive away (1 hour flight). Again, with so few guests and mostly retired family, we had a 100% RSVP. But we checked our date & venue with everyone first to make sure they could attend and we researched several hotel/AirBnB options.

    If you are having a small wedding look into that because often it can manage up to 20 people.

    Ours Is On A Saturday At 4pm, With Cocktail hour And Reception To Follow Ending At 930PM. We Chose The Weekend Because We're Both Navy And It isnt Always An option To Take Leave, Same With Alot Of Our Guests. The Weekend For Them Would Be Easier To Attend.
