It’s a Date!

Thousands of brides and grooms across the country will be heading to the altar on 11/11/11.

Is this wedding date full of luck or a bad omen? The number one symbolizes a new beginning and some say that eleven adds double strength to that meaning. We are not sure if the date is lucky or not, but according to David’s Bridal, approximately 57,000 couples think the date is lucky and have chosen to get married on 11/11/11!…Wow, love will definitely be in the air!

Hotels and wedding venues have had this special date, which only comes around one time in a hundred years, booked up for months. This popular date has truly been one of the most sought after dates in 2011. It doesn’t hurt that the date falls on Veteran’s Day Weekend, so for some this was the perfect time for a three-day wedding weekend.

At Waldorf Astoria Orlando, the lucky 11/11/11 bride is one of our very own!

Naketrice and Danny at Waldorf Astoria Orlando

Naketrice Booker, an Event Manager at Waldorf Astoria Orlando and Hilton Orlando Bonnet Creek, will be marrying Danny Snow, Director of Marketing at Snow & Associates, Inc.

Like most couples, Naketrice and Danny had been discussing marriage for a short time before the proposal. They even discussed what dates they liked and 11/11/11 was their favorite! On November 10, 2010, with the assistance of their kitten Oreo, Danny asked Naketrice to marry him and they set 11/11/11 as their date! Naketrice knew instantly that she had her perfect guy, the perfect date and she knew Waldorf Astoria Orlando was the perfect venue.

We are excited for Naketrice and Danny and we can’t wait to help them celebrate their big day – one that will truly only come around once in a lifetime!
