    We got married during the week so I would pick Thursday. The prices are more affordable.

    For the sake of my guests and not having to take off of work, Sunday. But if it were completely just about me, I would pick Thursday

    Either way, most people have to work the next day. If I really had to pick, it would be a Thursday. Then we could have an extra long mini honeymoon!

    Definitely a Sunday. Middle of the week weddings are always hard to make due to work and other weekly obligations.

    I would totally get married on either day. We are hopefully going to plan for a Friday anyway, so any day other than saturday is perfect.

    I would go for a Thursday evening before a Friday holiday. That way people would have plenty of time to get there after work and no one would need to work the next day.

    Thursday honestly, but we’re doing it on a Sunday because it’s in August when the kids have school and that wouldn’t be a problem if we didn’t have kids in the wedding party and if our venue wasn’t 45 minutes away from their school

    Well mine and my fiancee 3yr anniversary is on April 18th which falls on a Thursday this coming up year . So we both agreed that would be the best time to do it because he will only have to remember one date.

    I went to a Thursday wedding once, hardly anyone was there because of work, and those who were there left the reception early because they had to work the next day. If I had to pick between the two it would be Sunday since more people would be off work

    Definitely a Sunday because I would do a brunch, with a wedding midday!

    I don't like the thought of getting married on a weekday or Sunday because my weeding will be a celebration which means ppl will definitely have a blast so Saturday will give them Sunday to recover from all the fun but if i had to choose Thursday or Sunday i'd say Sunday

    I would on a Sunday, because most people have week jobs during the week, and they would be off on weekends.

    Sunday for sure, at least most people would already be off. Me being a hair stylist means my coworkers would have to try and make it off, but I’m sure we could figure it out!

    Yes, a brunch wedding. I think it will be ideal for dealing with guests' food restrictions...and who doesn't love mimosas!
