Traditionally January and February have quiet periods giving us the opportunity to chill out after a very busy Christmas period.  Not for me though, February is mental as far as weddings are going.  I had weddings last Saturday, Sunday and Monday (yes, Monday!) and again tonight, tomorrow and Saturday.

What I think is happening now is that weddings are now becoming more of a “all year round” type affair rather than the traditional summer wedding.  As the weather here in the UK is so up and down (remember last year’s so-called summer?) good weather cannot be guaranteed and there’s something quite alluring and romantic about a winter wedding.  The same goes for the day you actually have your wedding, with most venue’s offering generous discounts for midweek celebrations the traditional “saturday night” party seems to have gone out of the window.  Sundays are very popular as are Fridays.  We have several celebrations on Thursdays this year as well.   It appears that there quite literally is not enough weekends in the year to accommodate all of your parties!
