So, me and my Fiance are/were supposed to get married on October 30th, but apparently his manager said he might have to go to New York for work and my Fiance would have to work in his place. We still hope everything works out to where we can get married on that day still, but if not we will just get married on another day. He said the soonest he has after October 30th that he can ask for the day off is November 20th. Not sure I really like that day. Does anyone have any ideas? Me and him are both Pagan technically. He's Pagan, I'm Wiccan! It would be kool if they have any Pagan holidays coming up in November that we could get married on that day. Anyone have any ideas?

Edit: I just looked it up and the full moon in November is the 25th. I'm thinking maybe that day.

Is there a Pagan holiday celebrating the fall harvest? I would think so. Maybe marry on that day.

Anyways, Nov. 20th is my birthday, so I always like that day.

If you all are Pagan/Wiccan, shouldn't you know when your religion has a holiday?

Lol, your funny! I'm kinda new to being Wiccan so I don't know much about it yet. My Fiance probably knows the holidays though.

Wasn't trying to be funny. I would expect that one would have considerable knowledge about a religion before calling oneself a member of any group.

angelwings are you still in the epilepsy monitoring unit? if not what were the results. if the tests showed you do have it there will most likely be some things you are going to have to deal with (choosing non seizure causing colors, safe proofing the location, making others aware that you have it so that the person performing the wedding knows what to do should you suddenly drop down into a seizure, the form of the wedding may need to be changed ie it wouldnt be the best thing for an epileptic to be jumping over a broom at the moment that their brain fires off erratically especially if you are just being diagnosed and the right combo of meds havent been found yet to prevent sudden onset of a seizure...my point when someone has seizures certain precautions have to be put in place. )

as for pagen wiccan holidays no there are non in november, and pagan wickens dont celebrate full moons thats a myth found in many sci fi movies and tv shows. they do believe the moon just like scientists do that the moon affects things here on earth and some people are sensitive to the moon's powerful gravitational pull but pagan\wiccans dont worship the moon. a traditional ritual called an Esbat is what a cerimony during the full moon is called, it is usually done once a month, in old times before phones and internet they used the full moon as a way for everyone to know when to get together to celebrate those in the coven who have accomplished great things. example if someone in the coven made their first hunting kill that coven would celebrate by having an Esbat word of mouth would pass along john jr (not a real name) killed a lion. every one would know to go to the meeting place at the next full moon. obviously people dont travel by foot from tribe\coven to tribe\coven anymore but people do sometimes still use the idea of celebrating someone in the coven by having an Esbat on the next full moon from when they accomplished that. your coven can help you get all the supplies like a moon candle, the special kind of cake and the alcoholic beverage, considering you may be on epilepsy meds you might want to forgo the alcohol and replace it with apple cider and leave out the alcohol from the special cake\cookies. and other supplies for the Esbat

angelwings wanted to add another tip for your wedding considerations....you might want to go to your clerks office to start the application process for getting the marriage license. here in America no matter what the religion including pagan wiccan legally a person is not considered to be married unless they have the marriage license. some locations it can take up to a month or two to get it processed due to clerks offices being backed up with applications and their other duties, plus there will also need to be a blood test done for it which can also take a bit of time to get done depending upon what the clerks office process is, some are able to do the blood tests and send it out and others require you to go to your own doctor with a form and others send you to the ER and some locations do not require the blood test at all. also the fee for getting a marriage license in Arizona used to be 76 dollars. it might have gone up so thats something else you will need to check into for your up coming wedding because with out the marriage license you can not get married in the State of Arizona (or any state in America). then after you have the marriage license you will have a time limit on how long that marriage license is good for. some states you only have a matter of days to marry after getting the license other states you have up to a year. so make sure to set your date, and make sure that date of the wedding is far enough in advance for you and your guy to complete the requirements of the marriage license and plenty of time to plan the wedding after you know how long the marriage license is good for. most people who plan a wedding do so by setting a date of one year. that way they can know exactly when to get all the legal aspects of the marriage done. and still have time to plan whos going to be in the wedding, wedding colors, wedding style, time to get the clothes for everyone, planning the reception for after the wedding, so much goes into getting married. have fun but dont forget the legalities like that marriage license. otherwise in the US you cant get married.

10/30/2009 here. For obvious reasons, I can't argue any other date when October 30th is your first choice!
