My wedding is Valentine's Day 2018.. any advice?

Thank you Celia, If people want to go they will and the ones that don't will stay home. The day will go on any way and yes vendors are still gonna wanna make money

I'll definitely try to wait till about 8 months or so to send out the save the dates thanks for the tips

I decided to just do it wine

You should at least do beer and wine.

Yea I can do that... beer and wine sounds good to me

If you happen to find any save the dates/invites that you like since you have your information to create those and there's a sale, order them! We did that! We had our save the dates like 10 months before our wedding and our invites about a month after that! You can never pass up a sale!

I personally would decline a v day wedding invite. My only advice is hopefully you never divorce, could put a bit of a damper on Valentine's Day in any new relationship.

If I was going to have a Valentines themed wedding, I'd do something close to this... http://noveltybride.com/blog/pretty-in-pink/ I love everything about it!

I would attend a Valentine's wedding, it would be nice. I don't think everyone would hate it and as long as they get a heads up on it being a weekday, you should be fine. I attended a Thursday wedding and I thought it was so lovely. I agree with Celia, vendors are going to work anyway and if people don't want to attend, they won't. Have fun planning!!!!

I don't think you are moving too fast. I was about the same as far as progress a year out and now I'm actually a little behind.

Do you have a wedding planning book or online checklist yet? You could just go through each step one by one. If you're a bit ahead of the game in the planning department, just move on to the next month's checklist No problem with being ahead of schedule.

Yes I may do just that Iyla and I have some things bookmarked on Pinterest but it's so much on Pinterest that it can get a little overwhelming

TheWrightGirl... if the wedding wasn't mine I would attend a Valentine's Day wedding too.. it's not taking away from the couples, bring a special someone, eat free food, drinks and celebrate love...it's a party not a funeral

Thanks for the vote of confidence Blair. Who even says that?

To me, the Wednesday is more problematic than the Valentine's Day. Unless your wedding is down the street from my office, I can't take off that much time to go to it.

I understand the Wednesday issue way more than the Valentine's Day issue...that's why I'm doing it at night to try to accommodate more people

Thank you Nikki and I agree with you...yes the Wednesday part does make it a little weird but I will be respectful of time Bc yes it's a workweek...thanks for the encouragement

It's better to wait on the registry in case things are discontinued or change price dramatically. I just noticed a suit case I put on my registry for $125 just jumped to $500!

You could start working on your wedding website as a side project.

Congratulations what about a live band or a dance party?
