Why weddings always hosted on saturdays (lets share our opinions)

Saturday is a not a week day.

More people tend to be free from their jobs on Saturdays so fixing a wedding on a Saturday makes sense since it can get many people the opportunity to attend the wedding.

It's because it's a day most people are off duty. Sunday is a worship day otherwise it would have been mostly Saturdays and Sundays.

Some happen on Fridays. When I lived outside the country, couples picked any convenient day of the week. Thursday for some reason was a favourite. Saturdays and Sundays were also used.

So that family and friends who work in companies and establishments can be free to attend such occasions.

80% of workers are free on Saturdays
So many people will have time to attend

If you don't want many people to attend
Then Fix your wedding on Monday

E go shock you.The number of people wey go show up for your rice and chicken.

Do your wedding Christmas period and know if Saturday matters

Re: Why Are Weddings Always held On Saturdays? by Jogs1900: 6:01pm On Jan 14, 2023

I know churches like Apostolic faith don't conduct weddings on Saturdays..
They conduct their weddings during the week.
I think it's a matter of choice for those that do conduct on Saturdays.

Let us answer the question in further details grin

Weddings are often held on Saturdays because it is considered to be the most convenient and popular day of the week for many people. There are several reasons why this is the case:

Convenience for guests: Many people have work or school during the week, so holding a wedding on a Saturday allows more guests to attend without having to take time off work or school.

Availability of vendors: Many wedding vendors, such as venues, caterers, and photographers, are more likely to have availability on Saturdays, making it easier to secure the services and vendors needed for the wedding.

Tradition: Historically, Saturday has been the traditional day for weddings in many cultures and countries, and it has become a norm over the time and many people follow it.

Logistics: In some cases, the logistics of planning and coordinating a wedding may be easier on a Saturday, as certain tasks such as setting up and breaking down decorations, or renting equipment, can be done more efficiently on a weekend day.

It's worth noting that while saturday is the most popular day for weddings, it is not the only day and many people choose to have their weddings on other days, such as friday, sunday or even weekdays. The choice of day depends on the preference of the couple and what works best for them and their guests.

Why are elections, parties, examinations, etc. held on saturdays sef? Knowing fully well that there are some people who actually worship on saturday. For example, Seventh Day Adventists......
To make it balanced, let elections, exams, parties etc. be held on sundays too.

Until I attended a wedding in Ikorodu where Ewa Agoyin & Dodo and Asaro featured in their menu. I couldn't believe it. I forfeited every other dish and grasped the Ewa Agboyin, ati Dodo with both hands abeg. Cos it's a rare occurrence, jare.

that is for those that like to follow society definitions and rules like mindless sheeps. Thereby leading to unnecessary tension and financial stress.

happy are those who are man enough to break free from NORMAL and do our thing our own way. not everyone likes paparazzi
