Time was when weddings were always on Sunday. Now, most weddings in the San Antonio area are performed on Saturdays with the reception following. Their popularity guarantees that some reception facilities are booked as much as 18 months in advance for Saturdays in July and August.
If you can plan a Sunday wedding, or at least a Sunday reception, your choices will be greatly enhanced, and in some cases, your cost might be reduced. If your planning time is under four months, try to plan a Sunday wedding.
Check first with your clergy to see if he/she performs Sunday weddings. Many prefer to devote Sunday exclusively to services and family.
Call your reception facilities to assess availability. Some restaurants will close down exclusively for your reception on Sunday and some have special Sunday rates or packages. Your favorite DJ or band is more likely to have a Sunday free and the same holds true with your photographer and videographer.
