    I chose my wedding date basically because my fiance is older than me and I want him to always remember it because us ladies we remember very little important things and dates that man can't remember so I made it close to his birthday his birthday is June 7th that is a weekday so I put it on the weekend before his birthday we came up with the year Vice and we will get married 3 years after we met and yes we plan to get married few months after meeting each other also I will have a special cake for his birthday beside the wedding cake instead of a groom's cake

    At first we arbitrarily chose our date as it was a free Saturday in December (12/7). It wasn't until our STDs went out that my aunt informed me, that if they were still with us, it would be my paternal grandparents' 73rd wedding anniversary. Smiley heart

    My date is June 28,2020. We picked that date because we met in the month of June 4 years ago. (Will be 5 by the time we get married). We don't remember the day so guestimate it was the end of the month. Lol Plus, we don't have any family/friend obligations in that month such as birthdays or anniversaries so it works out well.

    That would be very special if you're getting married on your wedding anniversary it also could be an inspiration that you would last that long or longer with your mate God bless

    I wanted something I would remember and I’m mathematically inclined so we chose 4/5/2020 because 4x5=20. Also it wasn’t a Jewish holiday.

    We picked 2/2/2020 because it's fun and sounds cool. No special meaning there!

    Picking ours may seem a little complicated but works for us. We wanted a fall wedding on a Saturday (convenient for out of town guests) and wanted to marry in 2020. Then we went with our wedding numerology. Our marriage number is 6. When we discovered October 10th is on a Saturday and the numerology for the date is 6, it is perfect. Plus it's fun that the date is 10-10-2020.

    I chose October 19th of this year because it would have been my grandmother's 100th birthday. She and I were very close and since she can't be there in person it was my way of including her.

    Mine was my birthday. It sort of had to be around that time, after we ruled out the Jewish holidays, the days when our venue was not available, etc. And NotFroofy figured that if it was on my birthday, I wouldn't forget our anniversary. (She'd heard the story of how, during my first marriage, both my ex-husband and I forgot it was our anniversary, and were reminded by his mother.)

    Our date is the day after our 5th year anniversary and the day before my grandparent's. My best friend got married on the day she met her husband. Another friend got married on her grandparents anniversary

    Fun question. We wanted March because it was the last month of discounted “winter” rates but closest to the warmer season (spring is actually my favorite season anyway). We chose the last Monday of the month but a corporation booked it so we chose the Monday before... which turned out to be spring equinox that year! New beginnings. How perfect.

    We chose ours because it’s 3 days after the date of our first date. If we did the date of our first date, it would have been on a Thursday. The other reason is because I thought it would be awesome to have a Friday the 13th anniversary at some point.lol ... wedding date is
    October 13,2019.

    I really wanted September 26 2020 because we started dating on December 26 2015 but my fiance is returning to university so we decided to do August. August 21 2020 will be our 18 month anniversary of being engaged so we chose that date!
