And, we guarantee these perks will be enough to convince you&#8230;<\/p>\n<h2>Get Married Sooner<\/h2>\n<p>Did you know that peak days at the most popular wedding venues are now booked out from 18 months to two years in advance!? If you don\u2019t fancy the long wait to exchange vows, a midweek wedding is the perfect solution. Due to more availability, you&#8217;ll be able to tie the knot in well under a year with lots of help from your family and friends.<\/p>\n<h2>Save Money<\/h2>\n<p>The majority of wedding venues offer some sort of discount if you book midweek. They are keen to fill empty dates and usually have more flexibility to meet your special requests on these days.<\/p>\n<p>One of these perks at the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.newcontinental.co.uk\/our-weddings\/\" class=\"broken_link\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" rel=\"nofollow\">New Continental Hotel<\/a> is a complimentary\u00a0room hire rate for civil ceremonies and partnerships midweek \u2013 that\u2019s a saving of nearly \u00a3300.00 alone!<\/p>\n<h2>Nab The Date That&#8217;s Truly Important To You<\/h2>\n<p>While Saturdays are the busiest day of the week in the wedding world, opting for midweek will give you much more freedom when it comes to picking that all-important date. Maybe there&#8217;s a date close to your heart such as the anniversary of your engagement or when you first met.<\/p>\n<p>Or maybe you want to go for something fun like Friday the 13th, Halloween or 06\/06\/16.<\/p>\n<h2>Better Availability For Your Preferred Suppliers<\/h2>\n<p>Once the venue is booked, there&#8217;s usually a scramble to sign up the most popular bands, entertainment or photographers from your area. It will be much easier to book your preferred choice midweek due to less competition. Sounds good to us.<\/p>\n<h2>Don&#8217;t Stress About The Guest List<\/h2>\n<p>Midweek may mean fewer guests, this could be a plus or a minus depending on how you look at it. Fewer guests may be able to travel if you\u2019re getting married on a Wednesday, but a smaller more intimate celebration may suit your budget better.<\/p>\n<p>Many couples fret about asking friends and family to take time off work for a midweek wedding. Be mindful by sharing your your date and details as early as possible. After that, stop stressing and trying to please everyone. Those closest to you\u00a0will make it their business to be present to celebrate your special day.<\/p>\n<h2>More Honeymoon Options<\/h2>\n<p>More flights are scheduled midweek and you&#8217;ll have a higher chance of scoring a bargain. Most people working the standard nine to five from Monday to Friday, will book flights around the weekend &#8211; ultimately cutting the number of days holidays used. Hence, flight and accommodation prices tend to rocket at the weekend. If you&#8217;re thinking of jetting off on a romantic break, you couldn&#8217;t pick a better time than midweek!<br \/>\n<strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><em>For more details on midweek wedding offers and packages at the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.newcontinental.co.uk\/our-weddings\/\" class=\"broken_link\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" rel=\"nofollow\">New Continental Hotel<\/a>\u00a0or to book a show-around, call the team on\u00a0<strong>01 752 220 782<\/strong>.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Image Credits:<\/strong> <a href=\"http:\/\/harwellphotography.com\/\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" rel=\"nofollow\">Harwell Photography<\/a> via <a href=\"http:\/\/www.brides.com\/wedding-engagement\/engagement-rings\/2015\/12\/wedding-ring-photo-ideas#slide=36\" class=\"broken_link\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" rel=\"nofollow\">Brides<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Saturday weddings are old news.
