Almost nobody comes to my wedding? my fiance told me last night that a large part of his family will not be able to come because of the possibility of loss of employment and the economy. fine, ok, it sucks, but it cannot be helped in their case. However, between my family (i havent talked to my parents or my sisters in more than one year, their choice, not mine-not to be ahead, two sets of g'parents died, Aunt and an uncle, I probably come Arent-aunt and her husbands family go on vacation in Myrtle Beach, even if they have obtained their post date before Christmas have been on this for more than one year, and that the planned trip to the beach recently as the last few months, the uncle doesn't want to drive 6 hours by himself, or invest in a suit and i do not care about this last piece, MILF but has launched an adjustment holy hell about it, the rest of my family probably used appear as a result of age), MILF and make it as stressful as possible by refusing to pay until we have almost lost a seller (fh she said she would pay for certain things to help us), informing me that I better do fsil (which is just six months. preg.) moh (I stopped on it and so do fh the only person I want to post that I feel is pretty close to me why are my sisters, I explained to both of them, and the only one who has a problem Is fsil MILF loves more than me), and generally do everything it can cause stress (which she didn't do as regards marriage and fsil fbil). Now 10 weeks before the wedding, she refuses to even talk about marriage or something to do with it, or even help w / any of the things that must be done. fsil (bm the MILF does not care) care does not work either. she didn't even bother to post my shower invitations until six days before the shower.
We also noted last night that the friend is supposed to be running our ceremony is going through a divorce from his wife (who is a bm and whose daughter was our flower girl). as it is more likely than not a difficult divorce and evil (with custody battle), we'll probably end up having to find another officiant in less than 10 weeks.
MILF has made clear it has no interest in our marriage or anything associated with it, as has fsil (she didn't even shower invitations to mail six days before and im pretty sure, there were few, it didn't send any at all b / c didn't like anyone MILF). when fbil fsil married a little over a year ago, everyone was so happy and chomping at the bit to come. with our marriage, people ..... are not. DONT get me wrong here, I understand that w / the economy what it is, people just cannot do things they did, and things are more difficult for many people. but as my aunt who is a blood relative who has known during my wedding was supposed to be over a year now, suddenly decides to go on vacation in Myrtle Beach the weekend of my marriage (as, Thursday , for leave to Myrtle Beach to spend the weekend and return Monday or Tuesday) w / her husbands family.
I just did a count and 150 guests on the guest list, it is looking like only maybe 20 of them will actually come, and there are some 20 who can not come.
Im just so disappointed I think. much time and much money has gone into this (especially mine), and all of our sites, food, etc. are 125-150 people. I 125-150 pre-printed personalized invitations, napkins with personalized matchbooks and caketopper with our wedding date. If I knew that was what would happen a year ago, I would simply not worth it. In fact, I cried last night. I do not know what I would do.
I agree with Gram. Focus on having a good time with your family and friends who come.
If you've sunk enough money into a reception for 125, or expand to A.
