07.07.07 - This Day Next Year!

If you still haven't decided which day to get married, you may want to consider this date - that is, if you're one who believes that seven is a lucky number. The date falls on a Saturday next year so you may want to book your desired suppliers this early as other couples might beat you to it. Needless to say, the date 08.08.08 two years from now (August 08, 2008 will fall on a Friday) will be another popular wedding date especially for the Chinese. Fact is we've been getting inquiries for the auspicious date listing for 2007 this early, but what we currently have are only the 'good' dates for 2006.
