Okay so here goes. My Fiance and I decided..with the bridal parties help...that we would throw a Jack and Jill. We are paying for the wedding ourselves..because my mother is not helping and my future...

Has anyone actually ever received a response from the Pope? I was looking through all the old threads about inviting famous people, and I didn't see where anyone has ever received a response from...
So long story short, my parents stopped raising me at 7 and my Aunt took my sisters and I in. I really want to ask her to walk me down the aisle for my wedding but I am not sure how to do it. How did...
