Say "I Do" To A Friday Wedding

The weekend begins on Friday, so why not kick off your wedding festivities then as well?!

From perfecting your ideal wedding celebration to freeing up the rest of the weekend, here’s why Friday weddings are such a big hit:


THE AVAILABILITY


One of the biggest advantages of opting for a Friday wedding is increased availability and flexibility when it comes to booking your vendors. With a Friday wedding, you're more likely to have your pick of dates giving you greater freedom to choose the perfect setting for your special day. Do you already have your eyes set on the perfect photographer, DJ, etc? Having your ideal vendors

to be a part of your special day is crucial in making your dream wedding come true! Plus, we promise Friday weddings are a blast!

THE COST

Another significant perk of a Friday wedding is the potential for cost savings. Many wedding venues offer lower rates and/or minimums for events held on Fridays compared to peak Saturdays. By choosing a Friday, you may be able to stretch your budget further and allocate funds to other aspects of your wedding or even splurge on something special. Maybe it allocates more money towards décor items or gifts for your wedding party. The extra possibilities are endless!


YOUR GUESTS


While you may initially be concerned about your guests having to take time off work for a Friday wedding, most guests will appreciate the convenience of having the rest of the weekend free. Your loved ones can often make a long weekend out of the event, allowing them to travel, attend the wedding, and still have time to relax or explore the area before traveling back home and returning to their regular routines. Plus, who doesn’t love a three day weekend? (We sure do!) It’s a win-win for everyone!

Hosting your wedding on a Friday allows you to extend the celebration throughout the weekend. Instead of cramming all the festivities into one day, you and your guests can enjoy a leisurely weekend together. Whether it's a post-wedding brunch, a fun get together at a local sporting event, or simply relaxing by the pool, a Friday wedding provides the perfect opportunity for additional quality time with your favorite people.


In conclusion, Friday weddings offer a variety of benefits - cost savings, vendor availability, extended celebrations and more. For couples looking to create a memorable and personalized wedding experience, go ahead and book that Friday wedding - you won’t regret it!
