About Tu B'Av as a wedding date

The Mishnah says that on the fifteenth of Av the young women of Jerusalem went out in borrowed white dresses and danced in the vineyards, and young men came to choose a bride. In modern Israel Tu B'Av is a day of love, and many couples marry that day. It falls shortly after the sorrow of Tisha B'Av, so it is a turn from mourning to joy.
