So this seems like a dumb question the more I type it out but I can't find an answer anywhere on google so I'm hoping to just get some opinions here.
My boyfriend of 6 years just proposed to me this past Friday (6/22) and I'm already in full-planning mode. Our anniversary is 3/22 and we would like to keep the date of our anniversary the same for simplicity sake so that means having the wedding the same day. The only problem is i'm finding that because it's less than 9 months away, almost all the wedding venues in our area are booked for 3/22/19. There is one specific venue that I have absolutely fallen in love with and is EXACTLY what I've always had in mind for my "big day." The issue of course is that 3/22/19 is already booked. They do have other dates "around then" that are available so this is my question:
Would it be possible for me to get married at the courthouse on our actual anniversary date for "official" purposes, telling no one, and then hold the actual ceremony later? I just want to know, in the long run, how important is the date of the actual ceremony if our certificate and all that says 3/22? Does it even matter? Am I over-thinking this? Lol.
I would like to mention this is a same-sex wedding. so almost everything we're doing is already unconventional--what's another thing? LOL.
thank you for any help in advance!
