Another dumb thing........our paper puts out a big bridal section  (wait for it)....like first of August!   How about April-May for the June brides?  I've always thought that is the biggest 'twitt' schedule to publish wedding information.


@fthunt

If it’s the bridal section I remember, there are wedding stores,

photography, venue information, yes? If so, it’s called planning.

 

Most weddings have a 9 month planning period.

Take the most popular wedding month, May/June, 

back it up 9 months...boom...end of July/first of August.

ONE DAY before Thanksgiving, my newspaper has Thanksgiving and turkey recipes all over the place.

 

Why don't they publish this stuff ONE WEEK before Thanksgiving so you can have a chance to do the shopping, test the recipes, etc.?


For many, one day is not a big deal.

There are those who like to live Life ‘by the seat of their pants.’

And add another ‘turkey’ holiday in the next 4 weeks...

Re: Why do they do this?: Thanksgiving

The most popular wedding months now are September and October.  But I dare say, June is late if anyone is still looking or ideas for that same year.  But it's perfect for the following year's Sept/Oct.
