reverie_maiden said:*thinks about it for a few seconds* It would be hard to believe. I would feel like I was dreaming. Neither one of us having to leave would be strange at first, but I am sure we would get used to it and realize we don't have to leave on a plane anymore to go home.
I agree. My dad will still be angry with me for leaving early to head 2 hours down the road for our hotel room that night. I swear he still thinks I am 6 years old and he can't let go....butterfly... said:I find it very difficult to please everyone. Its annoying...
I wish someone could tell my dad that. *rolls her eyes*Glorianna said:You're your daddy's little girl. It's the same way with me but my dad is learning that I'm an independant woman now.
Lol, it will be like a slap in the face for him. He needs it though.Glorianna said:He'll be forced to learn once you're a married woman, don't worry.
My fiance is already hurting about all this. The wedding is already driving him up the wall.Sascha Fitzpatrick said:I would be hesitant just relying on a marriage to do that though.
I see too many problems of parents and children that are still attached at the time of the marriage to advise that.
Seriously, work on it now - you'll save a lot of heartache, particularly on your husband's side...

Thank you so much finally someone who can actually see my side of things.Sascha Fitzpatrick said:I would be hesitant just relying on a marriage to do that though.

Goodness gracious, you are lucky. Joey and I can't do it that way though, because we would have a lot of angry relatives on our hands...oh and parents too!MN John said:I'm so glad after reading this that we're going simple... probably about 5 guests. We're thinking of going to a restaurant afterwards as a mini-reception.

Yeah I know. There are people I wish not to invite, but my dad insists they come. Very frustrating!Sascha Fitzpatrick said:I think that's part of the 'bonus' of getting married older - there is a definite correlation (at least on here) of age and number of guests.
As you get older I think you just start to realise that 'hey it's OUR wedding, we want people there that REALLY mean something to us, so we'll restrict the numbers to show that', or something like that.
I've realised it on here - the younger couples seem to be looking at numbers of 100-plus, and wouldn't dream of not inviting the entire church and all extended family; those slightly older (ie. upwards of 25) are wanting absolute maximums of 50...
That's probably the difference between you and MN John, Reverie - with your age you will probably find it much harder to stake your independance in regards to your wedding.
Not really fair, but understandable...

My fiance would love to read this post, because someone is finally defending his side of the arguement. Joey and I have been fighting over a week now about just what you were talking about. So, I am guessing I am the problem huh?bliz said:So... you'd rather make your husband-to-be angry than your relatives and your parents...
You are starting off your marriage making the wrong choices. You are defering to everyone but the man who is going to be your husband.
You can Joey can have any kind of wedding you like - or no wedding at all. But if you leave Joey out of this, you will be starting your marriage on a very wrong foot. Who comes first - your husband or your father?
