Thursday Friday weddings

Some of my favourite weddings in Stockholm have been Friday weddings, but the latest news is Thursday is becoming the new Saturday during the credit crunch. Why are Friday weddings good, my thoughts are everybody seems so much more relaxed , guests are happier the weekend has started earlier .. and an extra day to recover in their Stockholm hotels from their wedding weekend.

Thursday is the new Saturday for some couples, says Nick Goldsmid, owner of the Luxters Barn wedding venue in Henley-Upon-Thames. “Predominantly Saturday was the key day, and then Sundays, and now we’re seeing increasing numbers choose weekday weddings – it’s cheaper,” he explains.”People are increasingly looking for a deal by booking late, and then they often play one venue off against another. We can usually help reduce costs somehow.”
