Bridesmaid already busy on potential wedding date?

H & B, 2 December, 2024 at 18:42 Posted on Etiquette and Advice 0
Hi everyone, this is my first post!!
We got engaged in November 2024 and are just starting to look at venues. We ideally want to be married next year, there’s a venue we love and are going to see it this week, initially looking at a November 2025 date, however they have offers for May 2025 which make a Saturday in May the same price as a Friday in November (about 5k)
Obviously I know that it will be a super busy few months to plan a wedding in just under 6 months but a Saturday in May for 5k is sooo ideal for us and we could never afford it otherwise!
My dilemma is I reached out to my bridesmaids (not officially asked yet but we’ve been friends since we were 2 so she knows she will be a bridesmaid) and one of them have said the potential date is her partners 30th birthday and they’ve booked to be abroad on that weekend. I’m really torn because I can’t imagine getting married without her, but (if I can be brave enough to try to plan a wedding in 6 months) this date would be perfect. Would I be horrible to book it anyway and potentially cause her to cancel her partners birthday trip?
