SURPRISING REASONS TO CHOOSE A SUNDAY WEDDING!
Is your ideal Saturday date taken? Consider this…when planning a wedding, Saturdays often come to mind as the ideal day to celebrate. However, a rising trend among savvy couples and wedding industry insiders is the Sunday wedding. This often-overlooked option comes with tons of benefits that make it a smart choice. Here’s why Sunday weddings are becoming an industry secret worth considering!
SAVINGS One of the most compelling reasons to choose a Sunday wedding is the significant cost savings. Savings from our reduced Sunday rates (up to 40%!) can be allocated towards other elements of your wedding, such as hosting additional guests, enhanced bar packages, adding special touches to your décor or even extending your honeymoon! Remember, your photos will look just as stunning on a Sunday as they would on a Saturday – the day of the week doesn’t show up in pictures, but the extra touches you can afford certainly will!
AVAILABILITY Sundays open the door to your top-choice vendors, entertainment, and timing, so you’re not settling or compromising during the planning process.
“I always tell my clients not to sleep on Sundays, they really are a sweet spot for celebrations. With more availability and often more flexibility in pricing, you’re more likely to book the venue and vendors you truly want instead of settling.”
— Melina Mayfield, Owner & Creative Director, By M Squared®
EXTENDED CELEBRATIONS Many couples opt to start their festivities on Friday or Saturday with a rehearsal dinner or a casual get-together, extending the wedding celebration across the entire weekend. This can create a mini vacation feel for guests, giving them more time to enjoy the occasion. You can also host a delicious Monday brunch for your guests before they depart! Imagine giving your guests a full weekend experience in the beautiful Finger Lakes wine region. Arrive on Friday, settle in and host a welcome gathering. Saturday becomes a day for exploration — wine tastings, boat rentals, watersports, paddle boarding, hiking, shopping, helicopter ride, taking in a local concert and more! Sunday rolls around, everyone is relaxed, acquainted, and fully immersed in the celebration mood.
EASIER AND CHEAPER TRAVEL Guests can arrive Saturday and leave Monday, avoiding rushed travel. In many cases, Sunday and Monday flights are also more affordable than peak Friday travel.
BETTER ATTENDANCE Saturdays fill up fast with sports, weddings, and commitments. Sundays are often more open, making it easier for guests to say yes.
A MORE INTENTIONAL, MEMORABLE EXPERIENCE Sunday events feel different, in the best way. Guests are more present, more engaged, and more focused on the experience. Rather than the usual Sunday wind-down, your event becomes the highlight of the weekend, leaving guests with a lasting impression and a perfect way to end on a high note.
“There’s something about a Sunday event that feels more relaxed, joyful, and intentional. It gives guests something to look forward to at the end of the weekend, and creates an atmosphere that’s just as festive as a Saturday, sometimes even better.”
— Melina Mayfield, Owner & Creative Director, By M Squared®
While Saturday weddings remain popular, Sunday weddings are an industry secret that offers numerous advantages, from cost savings and flexibility to creating a relaxed and intimate atmosphere. If you’re planning your big day and looking for a way to make it unique and memorable, consider the benefits of a Sunday wedding.
