Picking a wedding date can be harrowing, especially when you have a lot of options. However, it is one of the most important tasks related to your wedding. While you choose your wedding date, you have to see many things, like government holidays, special occasions, exam dates, etc. All this is to avoid any kind of confusion or avoiding any situation when your loved ones are not able to make for your special day. Here in this post, we are sharing with you the Wedding Dates to avoid in 2020, 2021 & 2022.
Here we go…….
Personal Special Occasions
There is no point picking a date that already has a particular significance in your life. For instance, choosing your parent’s wedding anniversary, or your cousin’s sister’s birthday, or your partner’s birthday, or college reunions, or family weddings, or any other significant event, like big conventions or events in your city.
Major Holidays and Significant Days
You can choose to marry on a holiday weekend, but that’s not a great idea altogether. For instance, you would want to get hitched on Martin Luther King Jr. Day, which is always a Monday. But, you need to think before doing so as you will end up getting exhausted every year as you will have to head to your work also the next day. It is better to choose a Sunday for your wedding so that you have Monday to relax a bit. Also, you need to consider the impact of your Holiday weekend wedding on your guests as well. Probably, many of your guests would not be able to make for your wedding for sure.

Father’s Day
Like mother’s day, father’s day, also fall on Sunday every year. And the same rule goes with father’s day as well. Definitely, your partner would want to keep two most essential occasions of his life, his wedding anniversary, and father’s day separate. You can always check with the groom if he is okay to celebrate both the two events together.
Halloween, the eve of the Western Christian feast of All Hallows’ Day
The day is actually meant to celebrate with your family and friends in a different costume, and unique get up. Of course, your wedding anniversary is not meant to celebrate the way this holiday is celebrated. So, it is better to avoid this date.
