Coming up with a wedding date can almost be as stressful as the planning itself. Nobody mentions this as everyone is more on the planning than the timing which is equally important.
You wouldn’t want to plan an outdoor wedding during the rainy season. Will you?
Here are a few tips to consider when setting your wedding date.
1. Venue
You have to be sure that your proposed or desired venue will be available on the date you pick.
The availability of the venue is also a key determinant.
2. Availability Of Guests
Inasmuch as you shouldn’t hinge your wedding plans on another person, knowing when your loved ones or family member will be off work/business is also important as regards setting your wedding date. Well, except, you want to get married only in the presence of your spouse.
3. Personal Schedule
Take your schedule and that of your partner’s into consideration, this ought to be top on the list.
You wouldn’t want to get married on the day when clients/business partners are blowing up your phone because of one important business meeting.
Also, it is good for you and your partner to pick a date where you can both get a reasonable time off to honeymoon.
4. Your Budget
Getting married at the beginning of the year might be tricky because most people would have spent heavily during the festive period. It is good to consider when you and your partner are buoyant enough before setting a date.
5. Time Of The Year
Weather, as was mentioned earlier, is an important factor to consider. For an outdoor wedding, nobody wants their guests – terribly wet and cold on their big day.
Fixing your wedding date should be ranked as high as the planning. It determines a host of things.
