Here's a thought...I am starting to think about my wedding and considering we have many out of town guest I have been seriously considering Christmas Eve. Not "Armenian" Christmas... but December 24...it falls on a Monday which is strange, but I am thinking if I can start late like 6pm ceremony than its like partying into Christmas Day.
I just dont know how people will react to this... most of the guests attending do not even do much on the 24th... but I am still unsure.
Any thoughts?

I think its a GREAT idea! Most of the guests at your wedding will be friends and family and I am sure they will enjoy spending the evening with one another! I have personally worked on numerous New Years Eve weddings and I feel like in those situations the couple felt the same way you did and after all was said and done they were very happy with their decision! Let us know how it goes!
