About wedding

I personally would feel uncomfortable if all my partner's family was present and mine was not to the point where I would just elope.

View Quoted Comment True I just know they wont come regardless so it like whatever at this point.

View Quoted Comment And since we already made payment etc.. I just dont want to lose the money if we cancel .

Go forward with the party and have fun with those who show up

I’d go forward with your plans. My daughter just got married- her father & her wife’s mother were no shows. The people that are there, that love & support you are your family.

View Quoted Comment No worries. It's ultimately up to you and your future spouse

View Quoted Comment That makes sense. So sorry. I hate it when ppl can't be honest and assertive ahead of time. Does your fam have a history of avoiding confrontation?

We going to move forward since we already spend so much for food ,dj , hotel venue, cartoonist and the minister. I just felt certain way that all .

View Quoted Comment Not sure since me and my family dont talk much and always have to hear it from third party . Plus my mom been giving me excuses since she got the save the date for the wedding and I get it just be honest and say no I cant be there or something.

View Quoted Comment True that what my hubby says his family is mine too .

I'm getting married the same day and having the same issue. However, most of my family is older some wirh health issues right now and have to travel through multiple states or fly. So some aren't comfortable with traveling during covid. From my side I'll only have 8-9 out of 30. It makes me sad and we will livestream but I'm close to my FH family. It may not be what I pictured but at the end of the day I'm still going to be married.

Just enjoy the day! It’s about you two.

You are not alone and it’s ok to feel disappointed. Hindsight is always 20/20 but based on you saying everything is planned and paid for I would agree with your friends and proceed. Our wedding is April 17 and I’m experiencing the same thing with my family but I’ve decided to proceed regardless. What makes me sad is that we were always super close but then not attending is not because of Covid (except my gma she’s high risk) but petty drama after my mother passed last year. I’m trying to remain positive and just be excited for our day and take it as a blessing bc hopefully that will mean our wedding day is drama free. I agree with your friends and would definitely move forward as long as you and your fiancé will be happy with it! The ones that are there for you will be there for you in person, virtually, or otherwise.

First congratulations to you! We started with 100 people, now it's 50 and I'm sure it will be less than that when we get married in September. I changed my entire venue from one state to another because of the people that I know are not coming. March is right around the corner, I say go for it because no knows when all of this pandemic stuff is going to be over. I agree with having the celebration with the people that are definitely going to be there to support you and your future partner.

View Quoted Comment Thank you . 🙂 will do .

View Quoted Comment First we had put down for 50 ppl than change it when we got the rvsp back to 25 so yeah will do that move forward since everything been paid for even thou now only 19 ppl .

My family didn't come to our wedding, and it turned out great!

It's really your day, focus on the two of you.

Yes have ur wedding thats ur day bride enjoy mines next year due to virsus but it all about you congratulations

I’ll be upset myself it’s your big day and your family and Friends should be there to make your big day more special I hope they all be there at your wedding.

If you know you won’t be happy seeing everyone there and knowing your family decided to not attend, I wouldn’t continue. It ruins the entire mood for you if you are just doing it for the ppl that attend and not for yourself. However if your personality can overcome your family not being there and just having fun with your partner, then go for it.
