parents are crazy

Ok so I had booked an afternoon wedding mostly because it's cheaper and I didn't want my parents to pay any more than they had to. I could have done a night wedding someplace else that's cheaper but I really loved where I was getting married.
But tonight, OUT OF NOWHERE, mom comes in my room and says that her and dad want to pay for a night wedding. They think it would just be easier to get ready in the morning and they always envisioned an evening wedding for me.
Alright, I guess I'm gonna be making some phone calls tomorrow. Good thing I didn't book anything else yet.

Re: parents are crazy

I can understand with your parents I feel the same way. When it came to that I just rather paid the extra money because I will be running around like crazy trying to do everything last minute. I find when you have an early wedding it really goes by fast not as if the evening one doesn't but the morning ones go by so quick and I was thinking how many folks would want to get their party on 12 in the evening as opposed to 7pm. Im just not a fan of early in the day weddings. I did not find that it was much of a difference in price maybe like 10 bucks the most.

Good luck.

I agree, this is something you maybe able to negotiate w/ the RH. Same price you are getting for afternoon might be able to be ok for Friday or Sun.
