Unpopular opinion: People who have their wedding on a holiday weekend are inconsiderate.
By @finny · Hot Takes
You're essentially forcing your guests to burn one of their few precious 3-day weekends on you, and probably pay more for travel and lodging to do it.
The full story
I said what I said. A holiday weekend is a gift of a free day off. I don't want to spend it traveling to your wedding, being on your schedule, and paying surge pricing for flights. Just have it on a regular weekend like everyone else. Am I wrong?
