Which day to marry

The Friday nikah, the Saturday wedding of the West, the Sunday of the Philippines, the lucky Wednesday and Thursday of Hindu and Greek choice: the day of the week a community prefers, and why.

SundayThe wedding day of the Philippines and much of Latin America, of Sikh and Hindu families with a day off, and of Greek village weddings.6 customsMonday today"Monday for wealth" in the old English rhyme, a day of Shiva for Hindu brides, and today the cheapest day to hire a venue.5 customsTuesday"Tuesday for health" in the rhyme, but a day many Hindu and Greek families avoid, and one the Orthodox rule counts as an eve of a fast day.6 customsWednesday"Wednesday the best day of all" in English folklore, the Talmud's day for a first marriage, and a fast day for Orthodox Christians.6 customsThursdayJupiter's auspicious day in Hindu practice, a common wedding day in Israel, and the eve of the Gulf and Iranian weekend.6 customsFridayThe Muslim day of congregation and a favoured day for the nikah, but a no-go for Jewish and Orthodox weddings and a day of ill omen in English folklore.7 customsSaturdayThe standard wedding day of the West, the most common day in Greece and Italy, but never for observant Jews, and "no luck at all" in the rhyme.6 customs
