The age-old debate rages on: Does planning a wedding on or around a holiday enhance both celebrations, or are they overly-inconvenient for guests?
Some would say that since family and friends are often scattered around the country (and world!), that planning a wedding around a holiday may save travel expenses, since many guest could be flying to be with their families anyway.
Others argue that it ends up being too much to coordinate, and that weddings unfairly take the focus away from what "should" be celebrated at that time.
And still others go the more diplomatic route, ans say "it depends!" It depends on which holiday it is, how elaborate the wedding, how far away the family...
What do you think about holiday weddings?
I am having my wedding on July 3rd, so I am all for holiday weddings. We planned a whole wedding weekend and all of our out of town guests that we don't normally get to see will be here with us. All of our guests seemed to be excited about it.
