Marriages on 9/11

Do you think the number of marriages on that date in the USA have, on average, dropped since 2001?

Just wondering.

I have no idea how to find marriage stats.

Try here or here.

EDIT : Fuck those .pdfs, this looks more direct. Appears to have gone down slightly, but still within 10% of the 2001 marriage total.

I meant marriages occurring on 9/11 of each year since 2001. If peeps actively avoid getting married on that day. In the USA.

I imagine radical muslims may like being married on that day.

Gordon, your kid and mine were almost born on that day. Wouldn't that be a great birthday?

My next one might be even closer to that day.

Good thing for us the infamy of that day has been downplayed so much since it happened.

Well, 9/11 on a Saturday doesn't happen much, but i do remember articles in the paper the first time it happened about people moving dates, and some people getting really good deals by getting married that day.
