I wanted a Church wedding so our family & friends could be there to share our special day with us but the closer it gets the more i wish i would have eloped with just the two of us.

I wanted a Church wedding so our family & friends could be there to share our special day with us but the closer it gets the more i wish i would have eloped with just the two of us. I had no idea something that is suppose to be a happy occasion would turn into me wishing we wouldn't have decided to go this way.I am so tired of all the "you should have done this instead of the church wedding" and the "you need to do this instead of that" crap. I'm also sick of being told my wedding has turned into a big mess. FH & I decided we wanted a church wedding but we never knew when we chose the church wedding so many people would be so negative and try to run things.I am so sick of people saying why is this person invited? they just now started having something to do with you and they weren't there before" I 'm aware of who and who hasn't been there for me until lately. i am especially tired of my brother saying he won't come to my wedding because i wasnt able to be here for his bday end of rant

    Stacy- i wish people would be like that with me instead of demanding i do this or that. lol My mom & I have pretty much planned my wedding. I have never helped anyone plan a wedding before so this is my first rodeo. At first we thought we'd go to the courthouse then have a small reception after but too many people kept wanting to come and we wanted to be able to share our special day with them so we changed to a Church wedding. I've even had people pick about the date FH & I chose because it's a Wednesday but like i told them my FH is out of state a lot and that's one of the days he will be home & most of the people we know have asked for that day off or traded shifts with someone but we understand if they can't come due to work reasons. Hopefully my wedding day will be so amazing i can look back someday and not even remember all the drama & stuff.

    I hope I don't remember all the drama either. I'm sorry that people have had a problem with the wedding date being a Wednesday. I've had people complain that August is too hot. My sister got married on a Wednesday too and the people that she really cared for made it there despite their jobs. It will work out. Just hang in there and focus on the positive, you found a great man to spend the rest of you life with!!

    I've been thinking about it lately. Only because I want to get pregnant soon and I refuse until we are married. The only thing holding me back are the deposits and the honeymoon booked. Smiley smile Just wish time will fly by.

    Stacy- Thank you. Sorry about that. I had someone complain because my reception site is a boy scout cabin and has no a/c. Fh's sister tried to get us to change the date because she wanted to go to the beach the week of our wedding. That's true! He has been so good to me Smiley smile

    Heather- Time will fly by. to be honest. FH & I were talking back in December about wanting to start ttc but we decided it'd be the best thing to wait until we got married even though it was really hard Smiley sad... Now that i look back on it time went by really fast... i'm too excited thinking i only have a little over a month to wait!.... Good luck to you when you start ttc Smiley smile

    Every day and twice on Sunday. It's actually what I originally wanted to do, but fh wanted a "real" wedding. So I get saddled with planning this and he has to do very little. At least in 19 days it will all be done!

    That was my idea but it turned out to be an expensive wedding so far
