Between one of my close friends, one of my sisters, and one of his sisters, every date between the end of this August and June 1 2015 is blocked off except for a tiny window of time (a weekend) in January (don't know if venues are available yet so close to that time). It is hot hot hot here in the summer and neither of us want a summer wedding. If we push to fall we're on top of another friend's wedding and, let's face it, football season (I love football). Plus, we really do not want to wait more than a year to do something we'd be happy to do at a court house tomorrow if not for family expectations.
If one more key person tells me they are going to live with the pygmies in Africa or some other far flung place I'm going to lose it. We even offered to fly my sister internationally for the wedding and the answer is no. I'm going to hyperventilate.
My sister may have to skype into the wedding. I'm not even kidding.
