So after this weekend, FH and I have decided to elope. Maybe I will have a reception to involve our friends/family but seriously, after the drama that FHs oldest keeps creating, issues with some of mine, friends begging to be in my wedding, his friends being butts about it..... we have decided this day is for US and noone else. We are getting married. We want to spend the rest of our lives together. Grow old together. If all we are going to have is stress in regards to our wedding, then to heck with everyone. We will run off to Vegas and get married just the 2 of us. I will still be planning the trip over and probably get a dress, but won't have all the other details. We had 3 hours of discussion this weekend about if we should move forward or not. If we are creating the problems or not. And all we see is everyone jockeying for "position" in our wedding. No wedding...no fighting. We love each other and can't fathom life without each other. We met over 25 yrs ago and went our separate ways and regretted it back then, we are not making that mistake again.
UGH.... Once we decided to elope, so much stress came off of our shoulders. No choosing BM or GM and someone getting upset, kids fighting over what position they get in the wedding, parents wanting this or that, etc. Seriously, this is our best decision because we are no longer stressed! :0) I am so at peace with this decision.
