    Thursday for sure! It's during the week so easier to find venue places available rather then weekend were it's harder to book.

    I would choose Sunday. Weekdays are definitely out of the question. Weekends are more convenient for most.

    We're getting married on a Sunday! It's cheaper. It's a DW so it kinda sucks for guests, but we had to make that call.

    I would choose Thursday because it's cheaper and give my guests a lot of anticipation to ask for the day off

    I think I would choose Thursday, because if it was Sunday, there's a chance that it would make it harder for guests to fly in and then back out in time for work. Either way, they'd have to get 1 or 2 days off work... If I was inviting a lot of guests, I think I would choose Sunday over Thursday. But if there were only 30, I would look at seeing how many guests could make it on Thursday without work being a problem.

    Probably Thursday. Then we could have the weekend and next week off for the honeymoon.

    This is hard! But, I'd have to say Sunday. Then you could have a whole weekend to get prepared and spend time with your closest guests.
