We've Decided On A Wedding Date!

[MyRegistry.com]

Every time couples get engaged, I wonder how they decide on their wedding date. I mean, they've come a long way deciding to get married, but how is the wedding date decided? I understand it all depends on the season at times, but do couples close their eyes and point to a random date on the calendar?

I know it sounds silly, but do couples pick a random date to get married? I know some don't. For example, a friend of mine got married on Halloween because it's she and her fiancee's favorite holiday, and I know a couple that is getting married the same day she and her fiancee started dating exclusively. Interesting, eh?

Did (or does) your wedding date had/have a hidden, significant meaning behind it? How did you decide when you were going to get married?

I think it just all depends on the couple. I know someone who's getting married Halloween because the place where she's having the reception at offered her a discount, compared to the other places she was looking into.

I don't know, though.

It doesn't matter what day you decide. don't think too much about it. I've heard people who decided based on their favorite season or holiday. My husband and I decided to get married two years from the day we got engaged.

I didn't want to have a winter wedding bc i would freeze to death, i didn't want to get married over the summer bc i would sweat like crazy, and I hate the fall because I think it's depressing. so i decided to get married in the spring when the flowers are about to bloom and the weather is just perfect. so, i decided to get married in may... the perfect fit :)

It's the person you're going to spend the rest of your life with... so choose carefully. either you'll love your wedding day or hate it (hopefully love it!).
