Too Old To Make a Big Thing of My Wedding

I see nothing wrong with it. Go for it!

I was married for the second time on my 56th birthday. And we did the whole thing, with a synagogue, dresses, veils, and two receptions (one after the ceremony in Massachusetts, and one back home).

We didn't do wedding expos only because a lot of them are heavy with the most expensive vendors. But that would have been true regardless of our ages or whether there had been any previous marriages. If you find them fun and/or a good source of ideas, there is no reason not to go.

I'm 48 and never to old to be excited to be getting married to the love of your life. Enjoy every bit. Congratulations!

Do it girl! You're never too old to love, or to be happy. Good luck!

I'll be 45 when we get married. I'm having a dress, veil, the works lol. Embrace being a bride weddings are ageless

There's nothing wrong with feeling like a princess again. Enjoy the moment! Your age has nothing to do with feeling excited. Enjoy! Congratulations!

I'm 38 and my fiancé is 47, and he wanted a big wedding..I was good for a nice elopement..I say run with it and have fun!!

I think the only reason this has ever been side-eyed was that as we get older our priorities tend to change and the age group overall look more to the practical side. Doesn't mean it's a rule or etiquette or anything else. You plan and enjoy whatever style celebration you both want. You probably have more disposable income than the young ones and it's your right to spend it any way you want.

I'm 45. This will be both my FH and I 2nd wedding and we are going all out this go around. Neither one of us had a big wedding our first time around. We are both very excited about planning our dream wedding.

Enjoy your day! As long as it's the celebration you want you should do it! You shouldn't feel like you can't celebrate it based on what you think others will think.

It is a wedding. It is a BIG deal!

Too old?! You're not too old at all!

We are both 59 and on our 2nd marriage. I already have a relative telling me a church wedding is wrong. Your comments were so reaffirming to me. I agree. Let’s rock our day!!!

You do you and ignore the naysayers who say you can't do things because of your age.

I asked this question a but ago - I am 51 and have been married before.
I felt like I was being really silly, I am SO INTO THIS! I got lots of encouragement to enjoy myself and do what makes me happy, and you should too!
My kids - 18 and 23 are super excited. It’s kind of cool, we are connecting as more like friends planning this instead of mom and daughters. Have the wedding of your dreams!

I say do what makes you happy. I personally don’t believe in “too old for” thinking. I’m 43 and this isn’t my first marriage either. I’m doing what WE both want to do. My personal thoughts are I want to enjoy my life to the fullest, create memories and if this makes me happy why shouldn’t I do it. Just my view.

Go for it! I am 61 my F/H is 62 this will be the second marriage for both of us. We are having the biggest party we can. Our bridal party include 16 people. We are doing it all big dress, tucks and gowns! My children are grown. So, if I can do it you most definitely can!! Do whatever you want!!

My friend was only 34 getting re-married and didn’t want a bridal shower because it was her second wedding and I legitimately thought she’s insane. She ended up having one skipping the registry. For the wedding she went all out
