Lol its an old english tradition and part of an old nursery rhyme for days to get married:

 

_____

 

Monday for wealth,

Tuesday for health

Wednesday best day of all

Thursday for curses

Friday for crosses/losses

Saturday no luck at all

 

_____

 

 

... I'm not sure what it means if you get married on Sunday though!!

I chose friday b/c that is when July 4th lands on in 2008. I figured everyone would have off anyway (well almost everyone) and this way people can do a long weekend (thurs-sunday) or stay for a whole week. It doesn't matter to my FI and I, we love having people around. We will probably take a separate honeymoon to the Greek Islands at a later time anyway so it really doesn't matter. I also wanted to build up to the wedding day but I think you should do whatever is best for you and your FI.

It is just a really old saying about what days to get married. Sunday was a religious day, so you never got married on Sunday. We are getting married on Wednesday. Partly because of this saying (I know it sounds cheesy, but I like the idea of luck) and partly because its mid week and I like that. Also, its a less busy day to get married on.

I know I am a little late to this thread but we got married on a wed (kinda happy about that now that I see this old rhyme :) but we choose wed because Jeff and I were only going down to Mexico for a week (Jeffs work is crazily busy in January so he could only take a week off and when his work slows down we figure we will look at a honeymoon) but we really liked the wed, because it gave us time to get everything ready down in PV but then also it gave us a few days after the wedding to just relax and be with each other without having to worry about wedding details! Our guests were great about it and they all loved having the wedding in the middle too because it gave them a nice switch from the all-inclusive in the middle of the trip and for some of them they were then very much relaxed after the wedding day too! Just for our circumstance it worked out best that way but each to their own I figure!

We chose Tuesday not for any reason other than it would work with our work schedule...every 5 weeks FH and I get a week off so we wanted our wedding to fall during that week so we wouldn't have to take much vacation. Tuesday is right in the middle of that week so it was perfect for us :)

The majority of our guest have already made it clear that they plan to leave us alone after our wedding. They know that it is our honeymoon and respect that.

      Cabo Azul Wedding Cost / Review

      By Emmma · Posted

      Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!

      Wedding venues and wedding planner in Costa Rica

      By KristinaH · Posted

      Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
