So FH brother is getting married 6 months before us, which is fine, i just find myself struggling as i plan the wedding, knowing that half the ppl that are going to be at my wedding will also be at theirs and i dont want them to be the same, i want them to be seperate enough from eachother....anyone know where i am coming from??
ultimately i know my weddings really about FH and i getting married, but still, ive bee dreaming about my wedding since i was a child...
okay, i feel better now haha

Re: Need it to be different.....
aww! I feel your pain. One of my friends picked her wedding date to be 2 weeks before mine, and we are friends with a lot of the same people, and we are both having it on the water, so I have a feeling it is going to be similar, and I dont want people comparing. I just want both weddings (mine and hers) to be nice, but have different feels to them.
I am sure it is harder because it is family though! Your wedding will be wonderful! and like you said (I agree completely) it is about you and FH getting married. I understand though that you have been dreaming about it for a while! you will add your own personal touches to the reception though to make it your own! Everyone will love it I am sure!!!
Dont stress!

Re: Need it to be different.....
I am 1 month and a day after a friends wedding. Fortunatly they are different venues with different feels, and the bridal parties will not be the same. I totally get what your saying in wanting to do something original! photobooths arents the most original but are a hell of fun! maybe that? idk.

Re: Need it to be different.....
I totally know where you are coming from!!! My FBIL is getting married 3 months before us and I have some of the same concerns. The only thing I can suggest is DO NOT go with the same DJ. In my opinion the DJ really makes the party, and each DJ has a unique style. Unfortunately, the DJ's style stays the same no mwtter what wedding he is doing. SO if you really want to stand out don't use the same one.
Of course there will be comparisons. But you will automatically think your wedding was better

2010'er crashing ...
I TOTALLY know what you are going through!
My FH's brother and fiance decided to get married
SIX friggen WEEKS AFTER US!
Things were ok at first, but then when FH'sa brother realized that our budget was a lot higher than his he started pitching fits ... FH and his brother have not spoken since last may AND WE LIVE IN THE SAME HOUSE!!!
Our weddings are going to be REALLY different ... ours is a sat night at giorgio's and theirs is a sunday morning .... I personally do not think people will compare them at all, I think they should both be pretty great!

Re: Need it to be different.....
It ***** that people get so touchy about budgets, but I kinda understand it. My FH and I are paying for the wedding ourselves, but FSIL's parents are paying for their wedding. It is a shame that your FH and his brother can't work things out. All that grief for only one day does not seem worth it in the end.

I know! we are paying it all ourselves ... and have cut back to invest in the wedding. Thats why we moved in with FMIL (that's another post all together!)
