About Holy Week and the Triduum
The three days of the Easter Triduum, from the Mass of the Lord's Supper on Thursday to the Easter Vigil on Saturday, are the most solemn of the year, and Catholic churches do not hold weddings on them. In the Philippines, Spain and Mexico Holy Week is also a family and processional time, and few couples would think of marrying then. Anglican and Protestant churches do not forbid it, but few clergy are free. Good Friday is the day most strictly kept.
