So, my FH and I have always been Halloween people. We always host the parties and celebrate the month like its Christmas. It's just our holiday and always has been!

The issue is that this past Halloween is basically the only one in any relevant future that will fall on a Saturday. Our wedding is coming up next year, and originally it was going to be on October 31st which is a Monday. Obviously there is some backlash about this day (specifically from my father) because it is just so inconvenient for guests. I totally understand that and can sympathize with it, however to choose Saturday instead for the convenience of our guests would mean being married on October 29th, which is just not all that special to us.

Originally my FH was totally against not having it on the 31st, and was really upset that I cared more about the guests than our actual wedding. He doesn't see the point in changing it because of "social norms." He is sure that having it on a Monday would be the best choice, and would even ensure that only the closest of our friends and family would want to attend anyways (keeping the guest count down, costs down ect). 

To counter this I suggested a Sunday wedding with us officially signing papers at midnight. No one would be rushing home from work to get ready, and we could still have an anniversary on the 31st. He sort of agreed to this idea but I feel like his feelings haven't changed, and he really is just trying to appease me. I don't want to choose Sunday if it isn't all that much better than Monday, and will make my FH secretly disappointed.

So, I guess my
