As to the wedding date, many couples will decide a special day for them to hold their expected wedding. Usually some couples will decided on the day they met first time, or another meaningful date to them. Valentine’s Day is a special day for all lovers, and have you considered to have your big day on the valentine’s day? It will be sweet and romantic to have a Valentine’s Day wedding, however, there are some protecters who think it will be a nightmare for them to have their wedding on or around February 14. Here are some pros and cons of getting married on Valentine’s Day.
Wedding Theme
· Advantage:Valentine’s Day weddings come with a built-in theme. Think red roses, red bridesmaid dresses, centerpieces with heart-shaped bases, candy Valentine hearts on the tables, and anything else you can imagine. If you’re the sentimental type, you can have a blast coming up with sweet little details.
· Disadvantage: You might feel pressured to do a Valentine theme even if you don’t want that. The hearts-and-roses theme is pretty cutesy and may not be for you.
Wedding Guests
· Advantage: For out-of-town guests, February generally is an inexpensive time to travel. Hotel rooms and airfare discounts will be much easier to find than in the warmer months.
· Disadvantage:Your wedding may disrupt other people’s romantic Valentine’s Day plans.
· Disadvantage: Some people hate Valentine’s Day, especially if they’re single. If you think it’s depressing to attend a wedding without a date, try attending a Valentine’s Day wedding without a date.
Wedding Expenses
- Disadvantage: Rental fees and other wedding expenses can skyrocket around Valentine’s Day. The weekend closest to February 14 is probably quite pricey, especially if Valentine’s Day actually falls on a weekend.
- Disadvantage: Floral prices may be at a premium!
- Advantage:With the exception of Valentine’s Day, February is generally an inexpensive month to get married. Warmer months almost always are more expensive. If you’re willing to have your wedding a few weeks before or after February 14, you might actually get some great discounts.
Weather Concerns
- Disadvantage:It’s the middle of February. Ouch.
- Disadvantage: Winter travel may be difficult for your out-of-town guests.
- Advantage: If you live in a warmer climate, out-of-town guests will enjoy flying in for your wedding. Besides, what’s more romantic than getting married on Valentine’s Day and at a beautiful location like a beach?
Wedding Anniversary
· Advantage: If you’re the sentimental type, an anniversary on or near February 14 is so romantic.
· Disadvantage: If you ever get divorced, Valentine’s Day may be ruined forever.
· Disadvantage: Just like kids who have birthdays around Christmas, you’ll be getting lots of combined Valentine’s Day-anniversary gifts.
Wedding Venue Availability
· Disadvantage:Popular wedding venues book quickly for Valentine’s Day. If Valentine’s day falls on a weekend, it may be quite difficult to locate an available venue unless you book months or even years ahead of time. You might also be competing with other Valentine’s Day functions.
· Advantage: Again, February is a slow month in the wedding industry, so venues might be easy to book a few weeks before and after the 14th.
