Remember that your ANNIVERSARY will be coming up on a yearly basis...Make sure you pick the 'right' date.

To heck with Bass season, you can catch them when ever you want.  That would mess up your hunting season.

Bass. You can catch them anytime, you just can't keep them. Catch and release hunting is much more difficult.

Here's an Idea tell her to pick a date thats not on a bass/deer/duck/ice fishing special day. there are plenty of them.  Your both getting married right? My wife knew better.  Your friends won't appreciate having to screw up their special day to go to your wedding.  Had to go to the wifes cousins wedding on thanksgiving weekend one year in Pennsy.  got to travel 81 and see all the guys in blaze orage and the deer running all over the friggin place.  Best part was the neighbor shot a monster 11pt that day that "came right from your woodlot"  Sh**heads got divorced two years later!

Hunting season is OFF LIMITS to wedding dates. Lose the one day of bass season. You'll be much happier the rest of your life.

Bro get married in the summer it is much better, warm weather and everyone seems to be much happier.  i got married 2 1/2 years ago in July and loved the weather.  So I say pick summer, your more than likely to get your wife out for bass fishing than out in the woods hunting with you.
All I need is ice and the fish will come.

Might I suggest... just dont do it at all...lol  ;D
Its only a pice of paper and you dont need that piece of paper to live with each other and co-exist happily!
With this in mind... no dates will get screwed up at all!
And that piece of paper that says your officially married now, changes alot of things...lol

In all seriousness... good luck with the marriage! I would go with a mid summer date as well... after the walleye opener!

out of a whole year, you can only come up with those two dates  ???
sounds like she wants to own the two times a year you actually put your foot down and say this is my w/e. no matter what you choose, you lose.  :'(
i'd put it off another year so you can get a different w/e to ruin  ;D

do it on a holiday like christmas, you're already screwed out of the day anyway, it would be easy to remember, or, teach your wife to hunt and fish with you.....that little trick works great.....
