Underscoring the importance of literal, trendy, wedding dates, 20,000 American couples are already planning to get married on 12\/13\/14, according to a David’s Bridal poll.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
The New York Post reports the weekend, which had only 7,200 weddings last year, is booking fast.<\/p>\n
“We’ve had to turn a lot of people away,” Julie Miller, a production manager at Long Island City venue The Foundry, told the outlet. “We’ve gotten 20 requests for the day since we booked it [a few months back], and December is generally a quiet month for us.”<\/p>\n
While the reasons for booking the date vary among couples, preschool director Jennifer Krysiak told the Post hers: the date’s “cool” factor, of course.<\/p>\n
Last year’s sequentially cool date, 11\/12\/13, also had a spike in weddings. The Wall Street Journal reported New York’s City Hall had twice as many.<\/p>\n
Given that history, wedding stores are stocking up for December 13, and some venues are going so far as to offer 12\/13\/14 wedding packages. Caesars Palace in Las Vegas, for example, has a ceremony-two buffet lunch special for $1,213.14 because you know, it’s a cute way to make money, running off the numbers craze.<\/p>\n
