Good News!!!! (long)

As some of you know, I've been having some issues with my FH and RH re: my ceremony and pics.

Recap:
- FH will not get married in a church
- FH is incredibly concerned about everyone staring at him through the whole ceremony so he only wanted to invite immediate friends/family to the ceremony (about 1/3 of the total guest list) - causing me angst and worry that people would be offended
- I did not want to see FH before ceremony so I didn't want to take pics before ceremony
but
- RH will only allow us to have the ceremony 30 mins before the CH, and since we want to be at ALL of our CH, there is no time for pics after cermeony.

Because of all of this, we considered having the ceremony somewhere else - we could do it several hours prior to the start of the CH and take pics after the ceremony, and those people not invited to the ceremony would not be able to show up early and see who was invited and who wasn't, etc ... but I was having trouble finding a place that offered indoor and outdoor areas in case of rain, and we would then need limos, something we really don't need if we have it all at the RH.

SO.....

Last night, while discussing all of this with FH ....

HE AGREED TO INVITE EVERYONE TO THE CEREMONY!!!!!



I told him that if we did this, we can have it all at the RH and that I would take pics before the ceremony so that we could go right from the ceremony into the CH. All of my friends and family will be there, no one will be mad and I have one less thing to stress over!!!!!

I feel as if a HUGE weight has been taken off of my shoulders.

Just had to share!!!!!

So glad to hear that you guys were able to compromise on this .... its good practice for your marriage, it will be the first of many

That is great news!!!

I have the same issue as your FH - i do NOT like attention and people looking at me. I spoke to my doc and he gave me Xanax to take so that the wedding isn't a complete nightmare for me.

Maybe something he should look into....

congrats!!
im glad it all worked out

We will probably both be on it!!!!. I am not afraid of the people looking at me - I love to be the center of attention - but I will be nervous of everything going right and getting done on time.

WHAT A RELIEF!!

aww! that's so great! I'm glad you were able to compromise!

So happy it worked out for you!!!!

BIG relief! My family will be so excited that I do not have to pick and choose who's coming now.

Awwww, I'm glad the 2 of you were able to come to a compromise and work it out!!!!!

That's what marriage is all about!!!

Glad it worked out!!!!
