Are you struggling to find your perfect wedding date and frustrated because many of the weekend dates are already booked? You’re not alone. First off, take a deep breath. It’s going to be okay, promise! A lot of couples are in the same predicament right now due to COVID-19.

As couples have rescheduled their 2020 weddings, many 2021 weekend dates (particularly Saturday) have been scooped up earlier than normal. And yes, that sounds overwhelming… but chin up! We’re here to tell you why having a weekday wedding can be a great option to consider.

Weddings have long been celebrated on weekdays, but due to COVID-19 they are becoming increasingly popular. Here are some major bonuses to consider!

You can have your wedding sooner… Yep! You read that right. You don’t have to wait until a Saturday date is available at your preferred venue. If you have to reschedule your wedding, or are newly engaged and simply want to get married right away, a weekday wedding could be just the ticket!

Your chances of securing your dream venue are much higher… Many couples book their venue soon after getting engaged. Is your dream venue booked on prime dates in 2021 (and beyond!)? Ask them about their weekday availability.

Get more “bang for your buck”… The popularity of Saturday weddings tends to come with a higher price tag to match. Couples leaning towards a weekday wedding can plan a high-end wedding at a lower cost. Your vendors are more than likely thrilled to accommodate a weekday soiree on a date they normally wouldn’t book.

You can enjoy a more cozy, intimate party… A smaller guest list typically comes with a weekday wedding, which means you can create a more intimate celebration. Worried about guests having to take off extra work time? If they are coming from out of state, chances are they are going to need to travel for more than one day regardless. While some guests may not be able to attend, with ample notice, your VIPs will have plenty of time to make travel plans to join your special day!

Taco Tuesday wedding theme? Or how about Thirsty Thursday? When planning your weekday wedding, you can choose a fun theme or a popular date!… How fun would it be to have your weekday wedding on 2/1/21, 10/20/21, 11/12/21, 2/2/22 or even 2/22/22?! Bonus — 2/22/22 falls on a Tuesday! Hello Taco Tuesday! Complete your wedding day theme with margaritas and tacos!
