Naturist Couple Trying to Arrange Ceremony

Honestly, nudity is something you can't force on anyone.

I love my family and friends, but if ANY of them were getting married in the nude, I wouldn't go.

Just accept that some don't embrace your ideas on this and forgive them if they don't come.

Would you consider like a flesh toned body suit? That's a pretty good compromise!

Hey Kimberly, I see where you are coming from with that idea but it would feel like cheating... also I don't want to look like I don't have nipples! That would be weird.

Are there going to be children at this wedding?

Will your engagement party also be au natural? I would hate for your coworkers to miss out on anything...

Yes. Out of all of this it would be weird not to have Nipples.

Decide what's more important. Your family or being nude.

LOL yeah I didn't think of that, I guess that would be a little wierd. Maybe just your FH? You know, guys nipples aren't really as pronounced anyway, you wouldn't be missing much.

Unreasonable family drama? You can't be that out of touch that you think it's unreasonable for your family to want you to be clothed for your wedding.

I don't blame them for not wanting to go to a nude ceremony. I wouldn't go. Also-- was the engagement party you were going to throw also going to be in the nude?

Assuming this isn't just a really creative troll...dude, I don't even like looking at my own naked ass. No way do I want to look at anyone else's, especially at a wedding.

Unless you're Ryan Reynolds.

Vajazzling!!! Think this is the only time when I would reccemend getting it all blinged up

It's not unreasonable at all if you are hosting your wedding at your legally predetermined location. You are wanting to go beyond what is publicly and LEGALLY accepted. Because of this, you have become the "family drama." You are "strangely". Why the change and moving off the compound? You know this will be confrontational. Are you wanting drama?

Why are you having the the ceremony and reception of the naturist compound? There it would be accepted and legal, off the compound though I'm afraid you'll run into laws that are against nudity in public places. I don't see how you can make this work in a venue that has to follow local jurisdiction law.

ETA. Words

I can see where your family isn't too keen on this idea. Could you and FH maybe elope, or have a private ceremony and then host some kind of celebration?

Are you going to post a BAM? Because i'm pretty sure that's a violation of the CGs...

Being a nudist is your thing not your family's thing. I wouldn't want to see a bunch of people at a wedding naked and I'm pretty sure unless you're doing it on the compound you're definitely going to run into trouble with the law being naked in public. I definitely wouldn't want to be seeing my family members get married naked so I see where your family is coming from. If getting married naked means so much to you I suggest doing it privately and then having a clothed reception with your family. my dad would be furious if he watched me get married to a naked man.

This might be my favorite thread I've ever read. :-)

I can't shake the feeling that Ali knows this post is controversial. Troll? I don't know but definitely someone looking for drama. The naturist isn't controversial but her choice of words used to describe those who would have a problem breaking the law is. A nudist/naturist in a compound would know their legal rights.

I just googled "Nudist weddings."

Yeah, to each his own but I wouldn't be able to stop staring.

How many of your family have seen you butt naked as an adult? How many of your family has seen your FH butt naked as an adult.

Ya, as someone who does not surround my day to day with seeing everyones parts I would be very distracted and uncomfortable.

Can you have the ceremony on the compound invite your family but encourage them to just come to the reception that would be somewhere else and everyone will be fully clothed?
