When are Weddings held for the Amish?

November and December are when most wedding take place. This is because the harvest has been completed and winter is around the corner. A full day is needed to set up for a wedding. While the bride has been making her preparations for some time, most of the set up happens on the day before the wedding. Most weddings are held on Tuesdays or Thursdays with clean up the day after. I have known weddings to happen on Wednesday. This is only done when there are lots of weddings. Some would ask why don’t they have weddings on Saturday like most of the English? Then they would have to do cleanup on Sunday which would be sacrilegious because that is church day.
