Which is more important: your date or your venue?

Date didnt matter to us we just picked a date our venue had. we dont have any summer anniversaries or anything so we picked a random date

Date, it's the day after our engagement last year and we couldn't do it on a weekday cause of work, but we decided the next day was best

Our date was most important to us as we chose to have it on the date of our first date!

Venue! It’s in your photos and you want to create your vision for your special day. The date is not important in my mind.

We started with a date, that I was in love with. But the venue did not have that date available. I was in love with the venue and all that it offered. So we changed our date by a few weeks.
I'm still glad we kept the venue.

The date!!

My late mother passed away at the age of 48 years young of pancreatic cancer. I was an only child and my father chose not to be in the picture. So for 29 years of my life, it was just me and my Mom. I unfortunately lost her while I was 9 months pregnant with my 4th daughter. So rather than mourn her every year on her birthday, my one biggest stipulation of my wedding was the date. October 3, 2020 my Mom would have been celebrating her 62nd birthday. So we will celebrate her at our wedding. We will have a seat reserved for her at the ceremony. My bridesmaids are wearing dresses in her favourite colour.

We started seeking out vendors very early and luckily booked our venue two years in advance on our chosen date. Had the venue not been available, we would have chosen another venue!

110% date. i have this thing with patterns and so does he so when we first picked a date we picked 8/8/18 but i ended up in the hospital. so we decided 10/10/2020 which also happened to fall equally between our birthdays. his being the first and mine the 20th. i knew at the end of the day if we couldnt find a venue my step moms parents would offer up their land to us for the day

For our current situation the date was the most important, our venue is pretty basic haha

That sounds magical! Now I'm wishing I'd done a winter weddingXD

I was super lucky and my date and venue lined up, but if I had had to pick one to prioritize it would have been the venue. I love love love the venue, and my FH and I felt that whatever date we get married on will be special to us. The only thing I was careful about was that nothing major had happened in history on that day, as I didn't really want people associating our anniversary with the signing of a treaty or something worse.

The Date! We actually switched the venue because it wasn't available at at all that month (despite the fact that i try to book 2 years in advance)

A little of both. We booked our venue based on the pricing for off season. We could get so much more for our guests by having a winter wedding. Now I'm dreaming about a light snow fall in a winter cape...hoping against hope that we don't end up with a blizzard.

Date! our venue was never that important to us

The venue was more important. We had a date that we were leaning toward but ended up going with a week earlier since it wasn't available.

Our date was most important. We really wanted to get married on our current anniversary. Only 18 days left!

Both to be honest. However the venue would have trumped the specific date if the venue could not accommodate. Luckily we got engaged so far out that it was not an issue!

Venue- Ceremony venue was most important to us and then we chose a date

We picked our venue first then booked the date of 09.20.2020. We love both our date and venue! Though because the venue is very popular, all Saturdays are fully booked, our date is on a Sunday. We still went ahead with because we love the venue so much

Our date for sure.

Venue! We would’ve changed our date but we booked so early it wasn’t a concern for us. Our venue is perfect - we couldn’t give it up.

We picked our date first and then picked our venue. But I think if our venue wasn't available we would've changed the date. We love our venue.

I think our date is more important, 10.19.19 just sounds cool, and it is a week between our dating anniversary and our engagement anniversary. The venue happened to work out for us since we're off-season and booked pretty early!

Our venue was more important to us. We knew that we wanted to have it there, and were not super concerned with the date. We just wanted to make sure it was a good time for us, and thats all that mattered

Venue is more important to us. Our date doesn't have any special significance to it on it's own. We fell in love with our venue and then picked based on availability, proximity of Christmas, probability of snow and such

Venue being the where is more important because of how the day is envisioned to celebrate the special day of your life. The overall outlook is what matters over the day personally and having the guests enjoying at the same time mingling in between events.
