No friends,no family, no wedding?

I'm in the same boat. What did you decide to do?
I totally understand your discomfort

Think of all the.people that have made you smile and invite them. People love to attend weddings, it makes them feel special. Invite your boss co workers.lawyer dentist etc😁😁😁Get ready for the biggest day of your life and have fun! Hey invite me lol Anita

I am in a similar boat. I lost a lot of my friends when I got sick a few years ago, and the few I have left live in another country. I have a very small family and my dad may not even be coming. I have thought about cancelling this thing many times and just having an intimate wedding, and honestly if it weren't so close I would. When we first booked our venue our guest list was much bigger, we've since scaled back a LOT and I feel silly having it in a historic ballroom now. Do what you are comfortable with, you could still have a wedding, just a more intimate one. There are gorgeous venues that do intimate weddings! If you still want the wedding you have been planning, try your best to focus on the people who are there, not the people who are not.

I’m sorry that your experiencing this. Just plan and enjoy your day. Don’t worry about who’s not there. I completely understand what your going through I’m in a similar situation. My father is dead, my mom has Alzheimer’s disease, my sister is dying in another state. These family members can’t attend our wedding. I have a son and grandson. I have 1 friend. That’s it. I have helped my daughter in law when she got married to my son, I paid for her wedding gown and gave her a bridal shower at my home. That was two years ago. Last time she spoke to me was March2018. I called her left voicemail twice in June. I will here from her when needs money. So I say forget everyone else and enjoy your life. Good luck!

It's hard. A friend of ours married someone who grew up in a variety of group homes and foster homes in western Canada, 10 between ages 10 and 17. They married in N NH with nobody on her side, 10 months after moving down. She did not want to shop or talk wedding, but did not want to deny her FI his family and many friends. So the whole guest list was his. A few years later, she is so happy. She had no idea how to make friends at first, hesitant to risk getting close to anyone, who all her life would abruptly be pulled away with a move. Her FI had grown up near me, and only went away for school. And sking in western Canada . But though she did not mix well with his young single friends, just before the wedding, and steadily after, they joined mostly young married, living together or long term SO dating. Rural and small city area, People still have dinner parties in their homes, ending sometimes with card games, sometimes rented movies, sometimes pool if they have tables. Summer, many live on or near lakes, lots of swimming and boating by moonlight after meals. And not fixed little groups, usually at least 4-8 couples, but any of maybe 30 couples in the circuit. Once she relaxed, and came to believe those people really came to like her for herself, she let us all embrace her. She works ¾ time in a tech office, talks only with her computer, virtually no people ever. Yet at the recent 3 showers for their new baby, 3 because too many people for one, just the women added up to a list of over 80 who attended, of 90 invites. She was overwhelmingly happy to realize, she told me, she had been a guest in everyone's homes, friends originally his, or family, multiple times, and everyone, she had entertained. All became friends. People so often think of a wedding as the end of single years, one last fling with old friends. But for many it is a start. Proudly become the wife of the man you love. Talk with him about doing things with one or two couples at a time, in homes or out in public. Make that much effort, and you will in time no longer feel friendless . So you come in alone - more people than you realize do. Make a home and welcome others. Life is choices - you have chosen a well liked a D well loved man. Step into his life as he wants you to, and don't look back.
