Weekday Weddings on AP {New Press}

weekday weddings | AP News

If you have been considering a weekday wedding, you are not alone! Weekday weddings are becoming part of the norm as the industry navigates an unprecedented “wedding boom” in the wake of the pandemic — and it turns out couples and their guests are actually loving the midweek nuptials!

Not only do weekday weddings tend to be more cost-effective, but you will also have a better chance at booking top-notch vendors if you intend to tie the knot in 2022 or 2023. So if you have a dream wedding venue or vendor you want to book, picking a weekday can make it easier to secure them!

But be mindful: As bookings increase, time is still of the essence. In 2022, the wedding industry will produce the most weddings on record since 1984. Venues and vendors will be busier than ever, so it’s time to get to planning!

Our very own Kevin chimed in on the subject for AP News in an article, So long, Saturdays: More couples embrace weekday weddings. And we can confirm it’s true: Weekday celebrations have definitely been on the rise in Livermore!
