Hello all.
My fiance and I are getting married 10/2/10 and just found out the church we chose a year ago can not marry us, due to a street festival in the city that day (which the pastor did not advise me of at the time of booking). At any rate, I've found 2 other available churches. One is the church my parents got married in 43 years ago, where I was baptized, and where I attended Sunday School at, etc. The reason we didn't initially choose to go there is because it didn't fit my "vision" of the church I wanted. I've always envisioned that big center aisle where the doors swing open and you see your future husband for the first time right before you two get married. The second church that's available DOES fit my "vision". So, my question is do I go with the church that does not fit my "vision", but that has history for my family OR the church that DOES fit my vision, even though we have no ties to the church whatsoever. I also feel like everything happens for a reason, so maybe the reason we had the church dilemma was because I'm meant to get married at my parents church?!?
I'm just SO confused right now...my heart says family, but my head says it's MY wedding and I should have everything I want. Any suggestions?!?!
THANKS!!!
