About Friday the 13th

In the United States, Britain and much of Europe Friday the 13th is a date of ill luck, and some couples and some guests will not marry or travel on it. Others choose it for the same reason, since venues cut the price and a date that is unlucky to some is easy to remember. The Italian version of the belief is Friday the 17th. Few churches or registry offices refuse a wedding on it.
