KnowInsiders will help you choose the best dates for your wedding in 2022!

Choosing a wedding date is one of the most important planning decisions that you'll have to make as a couple — it will impact every other aspect of your big day. You may have an idea of where you envision yourself walking down the aisle or what you want your cake to look like, but until you decide when you'd like to get married, you can't commit to anything. You might be asking yourself, "How do I pick a date that works for everyone and is still special to me?" or "Where do I even start?"

Best Wedding Days In 2022

Saturday, April 16, 2022

Day before Easter is a good time to get the family all together! This isn't usually a popular date for guests to travel out of town, so many of your friends and family will most likely be there to celebrate!

Friday, April 22, 2022

4/22/22 sounds pretty cool, right? Not to mention, venues sometimes cost less on Fridays, rather than Saturdays.

Sunday May 29, 2022

The next day, Monday, is Memorial day. This is a day that a lot of people get off work, so coming to a wedding on Sunday, sounds pretty good! And the price of the venue on a Sunday sounds even better!

Sunday, September 4, 2022

The next day is Labor Day! Again, a long weekend and spending less money sounds pretty good!

Saturday, October, 22, 2022

This date isn't going to last long, I'd jump on this one ASAP! It's got a nice *ring* to it and it is in a month that starts cooling down for the perfect temperature for an outdoor wedding.

Friday, November, 11, 2022

If you identify as a Type A and need everything in order, 11/11/22 is the date for you. Weather is nice, Friday is less expensive and the date is hard to forget!

Capricorn - Best Wedding Days 2022

Typically considered the most overworking of the signs, you find yourself taking on many responsibilities, oftentimes overbooking and overextending yourself. A good time to set the date would be during your half-birthday in July, when you get a second wind. Half-birthdays are a good refresher and can jumpstart the rest of your year, that’s why July marks the perfect time to focus more on your love life and less on your work.

We always think of July as a fun summer month. It kicks off with the 4th of July and the party keeps on going while the sun’s out. This is the time of year when we traditionally grill and picnic with family, and it’s an awesome idea to make your wedding celebrations part of the alfresco fiesta.

National Kissing Day is Wednesday, July 6, 2022. If comfort food holds a dear place in your heart, you’ll be interested to know that International Mac ‘n Cheese Day is Thursday, July 14 … we happen to offer an exceptional wedding-appropriate Mac and Cheese option if you want to add it to your celebration.

Expect picture-perfect wedding weather across most of the country in July 2022 with blue skies to make your wedding portraits gorgeous. You’ll have 14.5 hours of daylight and sunset is just after 8 pm.

Lucky Dates: Friday, July 8; Monday, July 11; Thursday, July 21

Cute Dates: Thursday, July 7 (7/7/22); Friday, July 22 (7/22/22)

Full Moon: Wednesday, July 13 (this will be a super moon)

Aquarius - Best Wedding Days 2022

Aquarians like anything unique and even unusual, so you’ll probably be taking your wedding guests on some crazy adventure. You’d rather do something different and just go with the flow, so August will be a great month to set for your big day—the unpredictable August weather will do the planning for you, and it will surely be something to remember!

Did you know August 1 is National Girlfriend Day? That makes it fun for all your wedding guests – especially if any of them are planning a secret proposal! Tell A Joke Day is on Tuesday, August 16 if you think that might help with speeches. On Friday, August 26 it’s National Dog Day which makes welcoming your pooch to your wedding a perfect idea. We love doggie ring bearers!

Expect 13 to 14 hours of daylight on a typical August day in 2022. Sunset is usually between 7:45 pm and 8:15 pm.

Lucky Dates: Wednesday, August 5; Friday, August 7; Saturday, August 8 (double lucky = 8/8/22); Wednesday, August 19

Cute Date: Saturday, August 8 (8/8/22)

Full Moon: Friday, August 12

Pisces - Best Wedding Days 2022

Best Wedding Days For Every Zodiac Sign In 2022

The best time for your fairytale wedding (that you’ve been planning since forever) would be when the Sun enters your sign, so late February/early March. Ideally, you’d embrace your Pisces element and get married near a body of water, but your sign’s season also marks the end of winter, so it might be a little chilly. As the most romantic and emotional of the zodiac, perhaps a beach destination wedding suits you? Or stay in the warm indoors with the ceremony by a giant window overlooking a lake.

As the most romantic and emotional of the zodiac, perhaps a beach destination wedding suits you? Or stay in the warm indoors with the ceremony by a giant window overlooking a lake.
March is a popular month for weddings because it’s when some of the warmer states start to see the first new leaves appear and beautiful bouquet options like hyacinths, daffodils, anemones, and viburnum burst into flower. In cooler states, winter is beginning to warm up but still sports beautiful snowy accents.

Daylight saving time kicks in for many states on Sunday, March 13, and the Spring (aka Vernal) Equinox in on March 20. This is one of two days each year when the day is equal to the night. If you’re looking for even more meaning: The International Day of Happiness is also on March 20.

Lucky Dates: Sunday, March 3; Thursday, March 14; Wednesday, March 20

Cute Dates: Thursday, March 3 (3/3/22); Tuesday, March 22 (3/22/22)

Aries - Best Wedding Days 2022

Fiery and full of energy? Check. A bit impulsive and impatient? Definitely. You don’t want to wait for peak wedding season to start in May, you want to beat your friends down the aisle! That’s why your sign’s season is the best time for you to get hitched. Spring is alive and well in April, what better time to begin your new married life?

“This sign is best suited to the start of summer, so June—perhaps a summer solstice wedding on the longest day of the year—would suit this dynamic sign,” Statham says.

With April, we begin to really see the buds of spring! This month is traditionally a special time for new brides as it vied as the season of birth and life in olden times. In 2022, there are lots of religious observances throughout April. Swinging the other way, Tax Day is Monday, April 18, and International Dance Day is on Friday, 29 April 2022

Sunset is around 7:30 pm during April 2022 and the days start to get longer with 13 hours of daylight.

Lucky Dates: Sunday, April 1; Wednesday, April 11; Friday, April 20; Sunday, April 11

Cute Dates: Monday, April 4 (4/4/22); Friday, April 22 (4/22/22)

Full Moon: Saturday, April 16

Taurus - Best Wedding Days 2022

Although you’re an Earth sign that is very grounded and loyal, Taurus do prefer the finer things in life. The perfect time for you to tie the knot is in February, when St. Valentine’s romance fills the air around you the entire month, making the join in matrimony even more lovey dovey!

While February is famously our shortest month, it’s full of wedding opportunities. Valentine’s day falls on a Monday in 2022, as does President’s day – which is perfect for anyone who wants to make their wedding celebrations part of a long weekend.

Guaranteed popular dates have repetitive numbers. In 2022, that means one of the most desirable dates will be 2.2.22, and it's extra easy to remember.

In February 2022, days span 10-11 hours, with sunset between 5 pm and 6 pm. Couples generally choose brunch and early afternoon ceremonies in February to make the most out of the natural light. Alternatively, an after-dark evening event is full of romance and character.

Lucky Dates: Sunday, February 4; Monday, February 5; Thursday, February 22

To correspond with your playful spirit, Gemini, you should set the date around Halloween. Halloween is a fun time and you’re always looking to keep the party going. You’re easily bored so you love to bounce around and socialize; the changing leaves and crisp fall air will only add to the excitement.

This month is ideal for all types of weddings. Crisp blue skies with a touch of weather make for glorious sunsets and fantastic sunsets. We’ve seen plenty of October 31 weddings that choose to play up or play down Halloween. And since all Hallows Eve is on a Monday in 2022 – most will have already celebrated the holiday over the preceding weekend.

Lucky Dates: Monday, October 7; Tuesday, October 8; Friday, October 18

Cute Dates: Monday, October 10 (10/10/22) and Saturday, October 22 (10/22/22)

Full Moon: Sunday, October 9

Cancer - Best Wedding Days 2022

Cancers are natural home-bodies and are extremely family-oriented. The perfect wedding for them will be a small gathering with loved ones in January. They may also be pulled toward their Water sign instincts and want to wed near a body of water. It might be too cold for an outdoor ceremony, depending on where home is, so consider traveling to a beach getaway. It will still feel like home when you’re surrounded by family and close friends.

January represents a new beginning. January 1st, New Year’s Day, is a feast day in many cultures. Want to try something more unique? A super cute date is National Cuddle Up Day on January 6, 2020, when you’re encouraged to snuggle up with your sweetie. Another idea . . . Spouse’s Day on January 26 is exceedingly appropriate for your wedding day. For those interested in major holidays, Martin Luther King, Jr. Day falls on January 17.

In January 2022, days are around 9.5 to 10 hours long and sunset is between 4:45 pm and 5:20 pm. With January weather typically crisp and changeable, spectacular sunsets are extremely likely.

Lucky Dates: Monday, January 7; Friday, January 11; Wednesday, January 23

Cute Dates: Saturday, January 1 (1/1/22); Sunday, January 2 (1/2/22); Saturday, January 22 (1/22/22)

Leo - Best Wedding Days 2022

As a Leo, you’ll want to say “I do” in a hot, summer month like July, to match your fiery personality. You love to entertain others while being the center of attention. Mid July puts you right in the middle of wedding season, but that’s not intimidating to you—you know your night will be one that guests won’t forget!

Cute Dates: Thursday, July 7 (7/7/22); Friday, July 22 (7/22/22)

Virgo - Best Wedding Days 2022

As the perfectionist of the zodiac bunch, every detail of your wedding day will be meticulously planned to go off without a hitch. Whether you pick spring or fall, your ideal big day should be outdoors in mother nature. Perhaps on the spring or fall equinox, which mark equal parts day and night.

March is a popular month for weddings because it’s when some of the warmer states start to see the first new leaves appear and beautiful bouquet options like hyacinths, daffodils, anemones, and viburnum burst into flower. In cooler states, winter is beginning to warm up but still sports beautiful snowy accents.

Daylight saving time kicks in for many states on Sunday, March 13, and the Spring (aka Vernal) Equinox in on March 20. This is one of two days each year when the day is equal to the night. If you’re looking for even more meaning: The International Day of Happiness is also on March 20.

Full Moon: Friday, March 18

Libra - Best Wedding Days 2022

October is airy Libra season! Libra is the sign of the scales, ruling marriage and contracts, making it even more fitting to tie the knot in your birthday season. No wonder October is one of the most popular wedding months. You can easily incorporate others into your life, so planning a wedding won’t be that difficult for you. Keep your scales balanced in harmony and peace in an early fall ceremony.

This month is ideal for all types of weddings. Crisp blue skies with a touch of weather make for glorious sunsets and fantastic sunsets. We’ve seen plenty of October 31 weddings that choose to play up or play down Halloween. And since all Hallows Eve is on a Monday in 2022 – most will have already celebrated the holiday over the preceding weekend.

The sun will dip at around 6 pm and night falls at 6:45 pm. Daylight lasts for 10.5 to 11.5 hours.

Lucky Dates: Monday, October 7; Tuesday, October 8; Friday, October 18

Cute Dates: Monday, October 10 (10/10/22) and Saturday, October 22 (10/22/22)

Scorpio - Best Wedding Days 2022

You are a private, intense, and mysterious person—and not to mention jealous. You can’t help it, you want what you want and are passionate about it. A winter wedding is exactly what you’ll need to cool off. Walk down the aisle at sunset leading into the longest night of the year, the Winter Solstice.

A December wedding is ideal if you love snowdrops, primroses, winter jasmine, and holly. Of course, you could buck trends and choose glorious tropical blooms to accent your celebration. This is the season of rich jewel tones and we always admire stunning velvet accented bridesmaid’s dresses in deep maroon or navy.

If you choose any outdoor activities, a perfect wedding favor is a monogrammed blanket that your guests can enjoy on the day, and for years after. The sun will set at 4.30 pm and we love pairing long nights with a S’mores bar or hot cocoa.

Across America, we have every choice for a winter wedding - select a cozy fireplace and snow scenes in Colorado or enjoy Arizona where it's relatively warm and dry in December. A destination wedding is a great choice if you need to travel to find your chosen temperatures.

Why to Consider a Weekday Wedding

2632-wedding-wishes-and-quotes3

More Availability – Many 2020 weddings that were postponed due to COVID have already been rescheduled. Couples seeking a weekend wedding in 2021 may have issues finding a Friday or Saturday open in their desired wedding venue since many couples have already re-booked their wedding dates.

Don’t have to settle – If you are set on having a Friday or Saturday ceremony, your dream wedding venue may not be available. You may have to find a wedding venue you aren’t crazy about to get married during a weekend. You may want to reconsider a Thursday wedding date so that you can have your dream wedding location.

Wedding deals happen during the weekday – Did you know, to help fill in slower days, wedding venues offer discounts or promos? Well, if you didn’t know – they do! In some cases, you could save big bucks getting married during the week.

Save on travel – If you are having a destination wedding or your wedding guests need to travel, hotel and flight rates might be cheaper during the week.

More time to with your loved ones – You can make the entire week all about you! You will be saving money on travel and getting wedding deals with your wedding venue. You will have extra money to have a “welcome dinner”, “farewell brunch”, or any other wedding gatherings.

Plan the wedding: What to consider

2041-wedding-wishes-and-quotes

Step #1: Take the weather into account.

The most popular months to get married are June, September, and October and it's no surprise why — the weather is absolutely beautiful in early summer and fall. In general, you can plan for weather based on past records and standards, but always remember to continue to track it throughout your planning process as well.

Step #2: Consider all the factors of an off-season date

Getting married in January or March might help cut your rental venue fee down, but you have to be prepared to make sacrifices in other areas. For example, let's say that peonies are your absolute favorite flower and you can't imagine having a bouquet with anything else. Depending on the time of year, it may be hard (if not impossible) for your florist to find them at a price that fits your budget. (In general, off-season flowers are incredibly expensive.)

The same concept applies for Friday vs. Saturday weddings. Although a venue might be able to give you a break on their minimums for a Friday reception, be aware that the rest of your wedding vendors might not be able to.

Step #3: Lead the date selection process by creating a list of what you envision for your wedding day

Imagine that your wedding day has finally arrived — what do you see? A lush rose garden as the backdrop for your ceremony? Vineyards dripping with grapes ready for harvest? Snow-covered mountaintops? By narrowing down your potential wedding date to one season (or two) you can cut down your options in half.

This is where the girly side of me comes into play! Jesse loves fields and greenery — he's Irish, so it's in his blood — and I'm a total flower girl. As much as I love November and December, I knew that flowers would be slim pickings during those months. So for me, it came down to wanting to create a beautifully lush setting for the entire day, ideally in a field in the middle of nowhere (more on my venue search in an upcoming blog post!).

Step #4: Think twice before getting married on a major holiday

In addition to Christmas, Valentine's Day and New Year's Eve, you may also want to reconsider tying the knot on religious holidays, event weekends (depending on your location), major sporting events, Father's Day and other holidays of this nature, and September 11th.

Although holiday weddings can be super fun and festive, your wedding date is something you want to celebrate for years to come because of the meaning behind it — not because it was also NYE. Another thing to keep in mind is the significant costs that are associated with holidays weddings. For example, the price of roses during Valentine's Day is unbelievable, so having them at your big day could really put a dent in your overall budget.

But perhaps the biggest factor to consider is your guests. As much as they love you, do they really want to spend a major holiday celebrating you instead of being able to celebrate them? Yes, your wedding is about the two of you, but you also want to make it an event that your guests are excited about and can afford to attend. Hotels, flights and car rentals can all get very expensive, especially during a holiday weekend.

Once we narrowed it down to springtime, Jesse and I had to decide whether we would get married in March, April or May. March is St. Patrick's Day, and as much as I love a good themed party, I don't see myself having a St. Patrick's Day wedding. May is Jesse's birthday month, so that was out! April it is.

Step #5: Focus on what you want your wedding day to be and how to portray that in a date

At this stage, you should have your potential dates narrowed down to a month or two, and this is where it gets fun! Within the months that made it to the final round, are there any dates that are meaningful to you as a couple or as individuals? Do you want to honor a family member who is no longer alive by getting married on their birthday or anniversary? Are there any dates you want to avoid?

Step #6: Give yourself plenty of time, and don't rush it!

I have planned full weddings in just a few months, and we've all seen how weddings can be pulled together within weeks on TV. However, what you might not be aware of is the cost that it takes to ensure that a big celebration can be executed quickly.

Step #7: Think about other aspects of your wedding and how they will all play out

Now, depending on what other aspects of your wedding are important, you might want to keep an open mind to a few dates. What if your dream venue is booked or your favorite photographer is out of town? Better yet, what about the important people in your family? You will want to make sure they can attend!
