Once your man puts a ring on your finger, the next thing that usually comes to your mind is setting THE date. But with 365 days to choose from, this seemingly simple task could be much harder than people think. So here's a list of some considerations any bride and groom-to-be must think about when choosing their wedding date:1. Type/Theme of wedding
The kind of wedding you want to have is an important consideration when choosing your wedding date. If you want a beach wedding or a garden wedding, it's better to have the sun shining brightly--so your best bet would be the summer months of March, April and May. If you have a winter or holiday theme in mind, then the Ber-months will probably suit you and your theme best.
2. Budget
Couples on a tight budget should veer away from dates that fall on worldwide occasions such as Christmas, Valentine's day, New Year's Day and Mother's Day because the price of flowers (which is a staple in weddings) tends to skyrocket on these dates and sometimes, even venues charge more. Peak wedding months in the Philippines are December and January, and these months can be more costly, too. Plus suppliers are very busy during these months with countless weddings lined-up, so if you want the full attention of your suppliers, then it would be wiser to look for alternative dates.
3. Church Calendar
The Church Calendar is usually an untapped source of wedding date ideas, but looking at the liturgical calendar is a good idea, too. The wedding ceremony is probably the most important aspect of your wedding day, and if you want yours to be filled with joyous songs and lush floral arrangements, then you should know that a wedding date that falls on the Lenten season is a definite no-no. The season of Advent, on the other hand, can offer couples with churches already adorned with Christmas decorations and Christmas carols for communion and pictorial songs.
