bash and BSD date, 10096 bytes

As an alternative to Toby Speight's answer but using BSD implementation instead of GNU one

s=(1 2)
m="-v$2y -v$(($1+1))mv$1 -v+1m -v1d"
date $m -v-$((s[$(dates[`date $m +%w)]+1+%w`]+1))d +%A\ %eth | sed%eth|sed s/1th/1st/

It has the following limitations:

months can be integers only, not strings (October or sep for example)
separator is changed from / to blanks which is natural shell arguments separator

There's certainly room for tweaking.
