Mid week wedding. Will guests still drink/ party and have fun?

I will have a sunday wedding and am hopefull for a good party(if covid allows). We would have loved a saturday but it was just not in budget. However we are optimistic for sunday as a lot of our guests come from quite far away. Our wedding is in Scotland but we have family and friends coming from england and germany. So many people attending will take holidays(at least the monday) in order to come anyway. So confident at least those will stay to party. We are completely aware that some people will leave early(driving distance that have kid needing to go to school next day or cant have a late start at work on monday) but we hope that this is a minority. So I think you can have a good party on a weekday/sunday but it really depends on your guests/ their situation. As your guests will likely have to already take wednesdays holiday to join you they might not wanna take thursday off as well. You could always ask around what people think. But obviously wednesday is much cheaper budget wise so if that's what you need go for it and maybe just try to get the music started a bit earlier or so. It will be a magical day no matter what. All the best

We were due to get married on a Saturday this year and due to covid, postponed to a Monday next June (as our venue were booked up on all weekends). Before this whole covid situation, getting married on a Saturday was so important to me but now, I really do think a majority of weddings next year and even the year after will take place on weekdays - so your guests will be used to it! Similar to the post above, I'm getting married in Scotland so my guests (who all live in London like me) will need to take the Monday and Tuesday off in any case.

Hopefully by next summer we'll be allowed some sort of wedding resembling the normal ones - and I'm sure everyone will just want to have a good time and let their hair down after the mess of this year. Also worth remembering that while some people may understandably need to leave early due to not being able to take a day off/childcare commitments etc, those closest to you would have factored in a day off and will be there to party and drink with you until the dancefloor closes.

I've already had quite a few friends reassure me recently that they have loads of holiday days left due to the covid situation so are happy to take a few days off for my wedding (fingers crossed they'll be able to come with the potential limit on numbers!). But I think whatever day of the week you're getting married, guests will have a great time.
