Wedding favors for the lucky 07/07/07 day
Soon to be newlyweds hope this Saturday brings them luck. And the reason is the date, 7-7-07. Many brides are looking for a little luck. But at www.weddingfavorthings.com we might just need some luck of our own
Weddingfavorthings.com already knows this week is going to be crazy. Last minute buyers can put a strain on our order system, but its built to handle it.
"We've had quite a few brides ordering from our site weddingfavorthings about nine months ago to a few months ago, making sure they get their order in early for this weekend's date and we've had to double up on our efforts to meet them," said Gerry J at weddingfavorthings.com.
Specialtyribbon.com Owner, Gerrard Francis had to alter the schedule too. That's because 44% of his July weddings are on Saturday alone. And this being a holiday week only adds to the chaos.
He says, "Most of our orders have to be out on the Wednesday, Thursday or Friday before the wedding. With the Fourth of July on Wednesday, we have a very hectic schedule for Thursday and Friday,"
It looks like everyone could use a little good fortune this weekend. Some brides could've used it months ago. One bride we ran into was hoping for a triple seven wedding but had to switch to the 6th instead. Every hall she called for her wedding venue was already booked.
Not all couples are so superstitious. Gerry and Francis have heard everything from ‘it was my old softball shirt number in college’ to ‘it's just easier to remember my anniversary’.
There are many theories as to why the number seven is a lucky number. Some say the bible. Other theories look to the Egyptians, Hindu mythology, and even Norse lore. Chinese weddings are hugely popular right now with this date. Weddingfavorthings.com says they have never had to say we dont have it in stock right now for a theme wedding.
