Try posting on your local boards, you might get more responses there.
Look for something owned or managed by someone of another ethnic background/religion.
The only places around here that are open on Christmas Day are East Indian and Chinese.
Post a query on your local Chowhound Board.
@coquibride: I know it's a sentimental date, but Christmas is on a Tuesday this year...and it's a major holiday for a huge amount of people. A lot of people travel out of town over the holidays. I guess my thought is...why not do it the weekend before or after? If I were a guest, I'd be a little annoyed that I was asked to give up my Christmas with my family and friends.
Just a thought/unsolicited advice.
How about hotels?
They are definitely open for guests and some run Christmas day lunches etc. So that may be a good option!?!?
@abbie017: I was definitely going to add the same thing. I know it's an important day for you and your future husband, but is having your family and friends with you on your wedding day also important? As a bride who did a lot of research about having just a Friday wedding, I read a lot about how people really dont' appreciate having weddings on holidays or holiday weekends. It's typically viewed as a little bit rude. And since it's Christmas, I would be prepared to a) not find many willing to work/cater/coordinate/vend your wedding (I could be wrong, but I would assume it would be REALLy difficult) and b) have friends and family--especially those with children--decline your invite. As Christmas is usually the most important of holidays (for christians), I would say in this case there would likely not be many people who would choose a wedding over a tranditional holiday with family and/or children. If you're not a Christmas-celebrating family, however, I'd say it wouldn't really matter. It would all be a matter of finding the vendors you'd need, which I'd assume would be really difficult
ETA: Also unsolicited advice/opinion, just trying to maybe bring to light things you'd hadn't yet thought of!
