So i went to my venue today to book it for the date i wanted 13.7.13...but it was booked. aswell as every other sat round about it.

the only date they can offer me is the 15th June or 17th August.

i really had my heart set on july as it goes into the Glasgow fair wen myself, my OH and my parents are all off so i thought it would be ideal for us all to get a break.

what date would uz go for out of the other 2 i have been offered.

im awful upset so i didnt get it booked...sad times! Smiley sad

    I don't think we can choose your date for you!

    Maybe the thing to consider would be school holidays... Because June might be cheaper for honeymoons but August more people might be able to come.

    Tough decision! But HTH a bit!

    If you are hoping for a break after, then I would say the June date. That way you can have the day and the stresses etc but you know you have the break coming.

    I agree with the others, if u want that specific date then maybe look elsewhere? Or if it is the venue you have dreamed of then maybe u can compromise?

    If it were me I would go for June 15th- only because I am biased and we get married on June 16th next year! A week after my birthday!

    Good luck with your choice! ?

    I'd go June, cos August could be really hot, although in England maybe not! We are having an April wedding, as the date we wanted in May was booked. June also wont get in the way of peoples summer/family holidays away. But if you really have no preferences, pick it out of a hat lol.

    Well i only wanted that date because of the holidays following. and also iv bn abroad for my birthday for the last 19 years and thats the 23.7. which is also wen we got engaged.

    i have looked at every other venue possible in or near my area. all too expensive or not what i am looking for.

    this venue has a great package and its really nice with great views around it.

    ahhhh

    It sounds like you have your heart set on the venue, you could try and think of it as a different date to celebrate, cus rather than celebrating anniversary, birthday and engagement anniversary all in a couple of weeks you'll have an extra celebration! and after this year you could still carry on being away on your birthday every year.

    Ultimately only you and H2B can make that decision. I would go for 15th June personally, the weather is appalling in August. My birthday is August 12th and it has rained every year for 23 years (sorry to anyone getting married August 12th!). But then you never know, the British weather is so unpredictable.

    My birthday is August 13th and the weather was fine last year by comparison lol. I've had some great August birthdays and some not so great, weather wise! We're getting married 27th August so I'm thinking positively!!

    I imagine it is probably nice and dry on August 13th because it has already emptied its buckets the day before! Haha

    I would go for June because the weather should be ok (we get married in June so I have my fingers crossed anyway).
