If you are having a winter wedding consider one just before Christmas when the location will be decorated for Christmas anyway. Our church had greenery and red velvet bows, banks of poinsettias, and candelabra down the isle. I just went with the whole winter theme, and that saved a lot on the florist expense.

Oh, you’re going to like this one, Adam. My ex-husband and I remarried last October 2007. We had reconciled a year or two prior, and finally started making plans. I thought it would be real special to wait until both our sons were 18, so they could be both sign as our witnesses on the marriage certificate. Our youngest turned 18 on the 6th, so we set the date for two weeks later. I got the okay from work (where they let us have the wedding and reception free), from our pastor and started lining things up. In the back of my mind, the 20th seemed like a significant date, but my mom’s birthday is the 18th, so I thought it must be that. About three weeks into planning (I only had about four months) Mr. A says to me, on the way home one day from work, “Isn’t the 20th the day our divorce was final?” I thought for a moment, and then it hit me. Indeed it was. We were remarried 15 years TO THE DAY that our divorce was final. Some people freaked out and said we should change the date, that it was a bad omen. We thought it was awesome and like a sign that we were “meant” to reunite.

We planed to have our wedding on Friday morning, but the place was near a highway so you could see the road and the power lines – not very inspiring, So we decided to have it on the following Sunday night and still managed to save some money by not doing it on Thursday night, which is the most requested day of the week. We had our wedding on August, because during the winter I still had to attend university.
