    Sunday, hands down. If we were doing that, I'd be all about the brunch wedding.

    Sunday definitely. Plus some Sundays have free Mondays. I could pick a holiday weekend Sunday, that way we could still party till dawn, and no one calls in sick.

    I would say a Thursday I think, as long as there were no shows on that night. Can't miss those!

    Sunday - I think people are more likely to be able to come.

    I would choose a Sunday! Maybe it’s a holiday weekend and then people would have Monday off. Also, a lot of people don’t like Monday’s so I feel like they would rather take off a Monday than a Thursday/ Friday.

    Thursday! If it’s planned far enough in advance guests can get the day off, maybe even Friday too, then they have the whole weekend to recover 😁

    Thursday. I can deal with that. I'll just take vacation on Friday and have me a 3 day weekend. And Monday we can all talk about the wedding.

    Thursday because it’s usually cheaper to book a venue. Our wedding is on July 11th, 2019 which is our way to pay tribute to my father who had the chance to pick my parents wedding date and then I got the opportunity to pick and I found that the date was perfect for us, plus it falls on a Thursday

    Between these days I would choose Sunday just because I feel like it would be easier for guests to get one day off rather than two.

    Sunday! Either brunch or an early evening because we’re not late night people anyway—a Sunday evening would keep the open bar tab low. 😅

    Thursday --- So closer family can take off Friday as well for an awesome wedding weekend. And hopefully those that are flying in can find better deals mid-week.

    Sunday. We looked at places "In Season" and it was ridiculous! 10k food minimum for a weekend in season (fri sat). But off season and a weekday or sunday? 3k! Much better Smiley smile
