Conveniently Located for Kentucky & Tennessee Couples
Owensboro → Bowling Green → Louisville → Nashville → Lexington → Paducah → Elizabethtown
JANUARY
January 1, 2027 — New Year’s Day
Start your marriage at the exact beginning of a brand-new year.
January 1 falls on a Friday in 2027, making it a memorable option for couples who love the idea of beginning their marriage with a fresh start.
Your wedding day becomes the first celebration of the year, and every anniversary gives you another reason to celebrate the beginning of your life together.
January 22, 2027 — The Wolf Moon
If you're dreaming of a winter wedding with a little magic behind it, January 22 is worth looking at.
The first full moon of 2027 is the Wolf Moon, traditionally associated with January and named for the howling wolves heard during the winter season.
A winter wedding followed by photographs under a full moon?
That could make for some incredible evening photos.
FEBRUARY
February 14, 2027 — Valentine’s Day
It doesn't get much more obvious than this one.
Valentine's Day falls on a Sunday in 2027.
For couples who love the holiday dedicated to romance, February 14 gives you an anniversary date nobody is likely to forget.
Of course, there is one downside: everyone else knows this date is special too, so popular vendors and venues can book quickly.
MARCH
March 20, 2027 — The First Day of Spring
Spring officially begins on March 20, 2027.
That makes this date especially meaningful for couples who love the symbolism of new beginnings, growth and a fresh season of life.
A spring wedding can also bring beautiful opportunities for fresh florals, greenery and outdoor photographs.
March 28, 2027 — Easter Sunday
Easter falls on March 28 in 2027.
For couples who celebrate Easter and want a wedding weekend with religious or family significance, this could be a meaningful date.
APRIL
April 22, 2027 — Earth Day + The Lyrid Meteor Shower
Now this is a fun one.
April 22 is Earth Day, and in 2027 it also lines up with the peak of the Lyrid meteor shower, which is expected to peak during the night of April 22–23.
The Lyrids are one of the oldest recorded meteor showers, with observations dating back more than 2,500 years.
Imagine an evening wedding followed by guests stepping outside to look for shooting stars.
That's a pretty memorable wedding night.
The Lyrids can produce up to around 18 meteors per hour under good viewing conditions.
MAY
May 5, 2027 — Cinco de Mayo + Eta Aquarid Meteor Shower
Cinco de Mayo falls on a Wednesday in 2027, but that's not the only reason this date caught our attention.
The Eta Aquarid meteor shower reaches peak activity around May 5–6.
Even more interesting?
The Eta Aquarids are created from debris left behind by Halley's Comet.
Yes, the same Halley's Comet that makes its famous appearance from Earth roughly every 76 years.
The next time Halley's Comet will be visible from Earth is expected to be 2061.
A wedding date connected to one of the most famous comets in history definitely gives you something interesting to tell your guests.
JUNE
June 18, 2027 — The Strawberry Moon
This may be one of our favorite summer dates.
The full moon in June is traditionally called the Strawberry Moon, and in 2027 it falls on June 18.
The name is traditionally associated with the time of year when strawberries ripen in parts of North America.
Think:
Strawberry-inspired cocktails.
Berry-filled desserts.
Summer florals.
Golden-hour portraits.
And, weather permitting, a beautiful full moon over your wedding celebration.
The Strawberry Moon is one of those wedding-date details that can easily become part of your entire wedding theme.
June 21, 2027 — First Day of Summer
Want the ultimate summer wedding date?
June 21 marks the summer solstice, the astronomical beginning of summer in the Northern Hemisphere and the longest day of the year.
That means more daylight for photographs, outdoor ceremonies and enjoying your wedding day.
The 2027 summer solstice occurs on June 21.
JULY
July 4, 2027 — Independence Day
July 4 falls on a Sunday in 2027.
If you're looking for a patriotic summer wedding, this one comes with built-in celebration.
Think red, white and blue details, summer florals, outdoor festivities and possibly fireworks depending on your venue and local rules.
Just remember that holiday weekends can be extremely popular, and travel, accommodations and vendor availability should all be considered.
July 7, 2027 — 7/7/27
If repeating numbers are your thing, stop scrolling.
7/7/27.
This date is a Wednesday, but let's be honest — the date itself is pretty fantastic.
Seven has long been associated with luck, completeness and significance in many traditions.
And years from now, when someone asks your anniversary?
“July 7th.”
Easy.
July 18, 2027 — The Buck Moon
July's full moon is traditionally called the Buck Moon, named for the new antlers that begin growing on male deer during this time of year.
In 2027, the Buck Moon occurs on July 18.
For a Kentucky wedding surrounded by beautiful countryside, rolling hills and outdoor scenery, this could be a particularly fun theme.
The Buck Moon also has other traditional names connected to July, including Thunder Moon and Hay Moon.
AUGUST
August 8, 2027 — 8/8/27
Another repeating-number date.
8/8/27.
August 8 falls on a Sunday.
The number eight is often associated with abundance, prosperity and infinity because of its continuous shape.
Whether you're superstitious or not, it's a date that's easy to remember and looks fantastic on invitations.
August 12–13, 2027 — The Perseid Meteor Shower
Now we're getting into some serious nighttime magic.
The Perseid meteor shower reaches peak activity on the night of August 12–13, 2027.
The Perseids are one of the brightest and most popular meteor showers of the year and can produce up to around 100 meteors per hour under ideal conditions.
They are created from debris associated with Comet Swift-Tuttle.
Imagine ending your reception, stepping outside with your new spouse and looking up at the night sky while shooting stars are passing overhead.
That's a wedding memory worth making.
The exact visibility depends on location, weather, darkness and the timing of the shower.
August 17, 2027 — The Sturgeon Moon
August's full moon is traditionally known as the Sturgeon Moon.
In 2027, it occurs on August 17.
The name comes from the sturgeon fish that were historically more readily caught during this time of year in parts of North America.
For couples who love an outdoor summer wedding, this is another beautiful full-moon date to consider.
SEPTEMBER
September 6, 2027 — Labor Day
Labor Day falls on Monday, September 6.
While a Monday wedding may not be everyone's first choice, a holiday weekend can give couples and guests an additional day away from work.
And September is one of the most popular months for weddings for good reason.
Warm days, cooler evenings and the beginning of fall make September a beautiful transition season.
September 9, 2027 — 9/9/27
Another date that immediately stands out.
9/9/27.
A Thursday wedding with an incredibly memorable date.
If you're looking for something unique without having to rely on a holiday or astronomical event, repeating-number dates are an easy way to make your anniversary unforgettable.
OCTOBER
October 10, 2027 — 10/10/27
Let's be honest.
10/10 is a pretty great date.
October 10 falls on a Sunday in 2027.
October weddings are known for beautiful fall colors, cooler temperatures and cozy evening celebrations.
Add the easy-to-remember date and you've got a strong contender.
October 15, 2027 — The Hunter's Moon
October's full moon is traditionally called the Hunter's Moon.
In 2027, it occurs on October 15.
The name is associated with the time of year when people traditionally prepared for winter by hunting and preserving food.
For a fall wedding surrounded by changing leaves and an evening full moon, this date could create an incredible atmosphere.
The Hunter's Moon has also been known by other traditional names, including Drying Rice Moon.
October 31, 2027 — Halloween
Yes.
Halloween falls on a Sunday in 2027.
For the couple who wants a wedding that is anything but traditional, Halloween could be one of the most entertaining wedding dates of the year.
Black wedding dresses.
Moody florals.
Candlelight.
Costumes.
A spooky cocktail hour.
Or go completely elegant with a sophisticated black-and-white Halloween-inspired wedding.
The possibilities are endless.
NOVEMBER
November 11, 2027 — 11/11/27
11/11.
This has become one of the most recognizable repeating-number dates on the calendar.
November 11 falls on a Thursday in 2027.
It's easy to remember, visually appealing on wedding invitations and gives you a date that stands out from the traditional Saturday wedding.
November 17–18, 2027 — The Leonid Meteor Shower
The Leonids are another annual meteor shower that typically peaks around November 17–18.
The Leonids are associated with Comet Tempel-Tuttle, which takes approximately 33 years to orbit the Sun.
For couples who love astronomy, this is another opportunity to build a little celestial magic into their wedding story.
Meteor showers are weather- and visibility-dependent, of course, but the idea of celebrating your marriage beneath a November night sky is pretty incredible.
November 25, 2027 — Thanksgiving Day
Thanksgiving falls on Thursday, November 25.
A Thanksgiving wedding could be perfect for couples who love family, food and gathering everyone they love around one table.
Think:
Long family-style tables.
Warm seasonal florals.
Pumpkin and apple desserts.
Comfort food.
Candles.
And plenty of reasons to be thankful.
DECEMBER
December 12, 2027 — 12/12/27
One more repeating-number date to put on your list.
12/12/27.
And yes, it falls on a Sunday.
A December wedding can bring a completely different atmosphere: winter greenery, candlelight, elegant décor and cozy reception spaces.
December 13–14, 2027 — The Geminid Meteor Shower
If you're willing to brave the cold for a little nighttime magic, the Geminid meteor shower is one to watch.
The Geminids are considered one of the most spectacular meteor showers of the year and typically peak around December 13–14.
And here's the really interesting part:
Unlike most meteor showers, the Geminids are associated with an asteroid rather than a comet, asteroid 3200 Phaethon.
That gives you another fun little fact to include in your wedding story.
December 21, 2027 — Winter Solstice
December 21 marks the astronomical beginning of winter in the Northern Hemisphere.
It is also the shortest day of the year.
A winter-solstice wedding could be absolutely beautiful with candlelight, warm colors, evergreen details and a cozy indoor celebration.
And there is something pretty symbolic about getting married on the day when the seasons officially turn toward winter.
The 2027 winter solstice occurs on December 21.
December 31, 2027 — New Year's Eve
End the year by beginning your marriage.
New Year's Eve falls on a Friday in 2027.
Imagine counting down to midnight with all of your favorite people, and starting the new year as newlyweds.
It doesn't get much more memorable than that.
SO WHICH 2027 DATE IS YOUR FAVORITE?
There are plenty of beautiful Saturdays on the 2027 calendar.
But sometimes the best wedding date isn't simply the one that happens to be available.
It's the one that has a story.
Maybe it's the night of a full moon.
Maybe it's the first day of summer.
Maybe it's a meteor shower.
Maybe it's 7/7/27.
Maybe it's Valentine's Day.
Maybe it's Halloween.
Or maybe you simply pick a random Tuesday because it is the date that works for the two of you.
At the end of the day, the best wedding date is the one that means something to your story.
And if you're searching for a wedding venue in Kentucky for your 2027 celebration, we'd love to help you find the date that fits your vision.
Your wedding day only happens once. Choose a date you'll love remembering.
One important note: Astronomical events such as full moons and meteor showers can vary slightly by time zone, and a meteor shower's visibility depends on darkness, weather and location. The dates above are intended as fun planning inspiration, not a guarantee that a specific celestial event will be visible from your wedding venue.
