With regard to the holidays like Thanksgiving and Christmas, if the wedding can be themed around it some how, the couple may save big on decor since many venues may have their establishments festively adorned with the holiday's decorations. On the other hand, these dates are hard to book because many may be closed or booked with holiday parties. So it would be something to consider as an option if you can plan it the following year.
ReplyDeleteThat's a great tip because many vendors will need to charge more because of the holiday so if they can save on decor because their venue is already decorated, then that is a bonus for them!
ReplyDeleteGood share...knowing these dates are important!!
