So 9 months ago we booked our wedding for a Sunday in April 2020, and now i'm starting to worry people will leave early.
We chose a Sunday because we thought the majority of our friends then wont need to take a day off like they would for a Friday, and it was honestly the only option we could really afford. I figured if people wanted to drink loads then they can take the Monday off but then they're no worse off than if it had been a Friday.
Its about a 15 minute drive from our home town, which has hotels and a train station, but having looked into travel costs and hotels it looks like a taxi back will cost about £15 and a hotel around £60, is this too much? I'm worried people will not want to pay out so will just either drive and not drink (not that it matters but they're then unlikely to stay to the end) or they'll just leave early so its cheaper Taxi fare or so they can get a taxi to the nearest station.
most of our friends live a 40 min drive or train ride away, but we [picked the venue as we loved it and its easier for our elderly relatives.
I know i'm probably over thinking it, but do you think people are now less likely to make an effort to stay late or over night?
