Thinking about a ceremony on a Sunday for less money. Did anyone else consider this?

    I did not, yes it is more money and that’s a good thing! But I feel like not as many guest will show up due to having work the next day

    I picked Sunday that happened to be the day we met four years prior. It also landed on Labor Day weekend so we have Monday off to enjoy the after bliss. It’s still has been cheaper as well

    My wedding is on a Sunday because it is cheaper and it is within budget.. I am having my wedding from 3:30 to 9pm. Most of my guests are in the area. Only of my guests are out of town. Sunday are a good day to have a wedding. You will have to think what time you will have it for you and your guests.

    Our 7 year anniversary(the date we chose for our wedding next year) happens to fall on a Sunday, which is cheaper for venues. Win win!!

    I’m doing a Sunday wedding. It it saving me money, but it also allows for people to decide if they want to take the next day off or not.

    We considered. Ultimately chose not since we’re moving out of town on that Sunday. Our venue is on Saturday and we got a discount so it worked out. Good luck!! I’ve also known people to do friday weddings!

    I knew I wanted a Sunday wedding from the start. 100% of our families are out of town so they would have to travel anyway. Plus I am using it as a guest list cutter because many people won’t understand a Sunday wedding unless they are planning or have had a Sunday wedding. I think its super romantic and rolls of our tongue so beautifully when we say, “We are getting married on the first Sunday in June!” Happy planning!!

    We were considering a Sunday wedding originally but we chose to get married in a church so the timing didn't work out for a Sunday wedding! If we could though, we would totally do a Sunday!

    I am. Unfortunately, the Saturday wasn’t available, but at least I saved $500 on the venue having the wedding on a Sunday. I also, got a $250 discount on the photographer/videographer for the Sunday booking. I guess it was worth it. Only downside is the rehearsal dinner will be on a Thursday.

    We did Sunday at 4pm and save $2000 off the package plus 50% off the wine/beer package. We only had 6 no shows that were coming from out of state that apparently didn’t realize until that weekend that the wedding was on Sunday and didn’t take off for Monday. 🤦🏼‍♀️

    Did you have an issue with your guests leaving early? I’m having terrible second thoughts about my Sunday evening wedding

    We did not have a Sunday wedding but I definitely have heard of Sunday Brunch weddings, and that it can be a huge savings!


    If you're looking at a Sunday the two things I would consider are 1. The time of day and 2. How many guests will be traveling. With many people going to work on Monday morning, a Sunday evening/night wedding and reception may have a lighter turnout than expected or with more guests ducking out early. If any of your "I can't get married without this person here" people are traveling a significant distance for the wedding, maybe talk it over with them to ensure they could still make it Smiley smile Ultimately, if it works for you, have that Sunday ceremony and put that money in the bank!

    My fiancé and I we are on a tight budget so Sunday was a cheaper day plus some of my family wouldn’t be able to come on a Saturday so Sunday was best fit for us, our budget, and our guest

    I'm getting married on a Sunday and right before Labor Day. Sundays are cheaper than Saturdays, here at least!

    I’m doing this! We’re having our ceremony at 2:30 and reception ending at 8, this way if people want to head home and recoup for work the next day they can and if not, we have the hotel rooms for them still

    We are doing a Sunday because it was cheaper and there was no reason for most of our guests to not come. Also, it’s my grandparents anniversary. My grandma passed a little over a year ago and my grandpa is really sick but it made him happy when we told him the date.

    We're getting married on a Sunday, saving over $10k


    We're getting married July 5, 2020 & we figured make a weekend out of it and have people remember their weekend by ending with our wedding.
