People put a lot of thought into their wedding date. They consider the season and weather, of course. But they also have to think about holidays, guest availability, work schedules, and so much more.

However, it’s not just one date you’re mulling over—because your wedding day also ends up being your wedding anniversary. And some couples love the idea of securing a special wedding date!

Here are some examples:

  • Palindromes like 6/20/26 (June 20, 2026)

  • Culturally fortunate numbers like 18 in Judaism or 8 in Chinese culture

  • Easy to remember numbers like 2/6/26 (February 6, 2026)

  • Holidays or seasonally significant days like Juneteenth or the Spring Equinox

  • Personally notable days like the anniversary of your first date

  • Dates with full moons (or new moons if you prefer stargazing)

  • Or fun dates like Friday the 13th on March 13, 2026

As you can see, there are a lot of cool options for dates to say “I do.”

But if you’re looking for some suggestions, here are some unique wedding dates for 2026 and 2027.
