Here are some considerations that you may need to take note when it comes to choosing your wedding date:
1、Traditional Method
Wedding date is traditionally selected from a list of lucky days from the Chinese calendar. The 8th month of Lunar Calendar is the most popular month as round moon symbolize a “rounded” relationship. If you are looking at getting married in the 8th lunar month, do plan your wedding early!
The traditional custom taboo against getting married on the parents’ birth dates, couples’ zodiac sign clashing dates & months, 3rd/7th/9th Lunar month and San Niang Sa. For more detailed explanation, read our previous post: LINK
2、Wedding Peak Period
Every wedding venue has its own peak period depending on different circumstances (weather, venue ambience, etc). If you would like to get married during the wedding peak period, do plan and book everything early, including your emcee, photographer, hotel, gown, etc. Else, if you don’t have enough time for planning, it is advisable to avoid wedding peak period to avoid any unnecessary pressure and reduce your wedding budget. You will not have to worry if your guests have already been “booked” by another wedding of their friends/family on the same day too.
You may also consider choosing a day that is normal to others, but significant and memorable to both of you, such as anniversary date.
3、Working Schedule
There are a lot of things that the couples have to handle and settle during wedding planning. To avoid affecting your working schedule, it’s best to select your wedding date after your working peak period or upon return of your outstation business trip. Not only you get to enjoy a peaceful honeymoon after your wedding, you would not run the risk of cancelling or postponing your wedding due to any unexpected working “surprise”.
4、Weather of the Day
With the uprising trend of outdoor wedding, such as garden wedding or beach wedding, it is also important to check the weather forecast beforehand.
After taking into the consideration above, you shall be above to narrow down the list of auspicious dates available and choose your perfect wedding day!
