So, I finally found our PERFECT venue for our ceremony right in our price range! It will be an outside ceremony in front of a beautiful fountain in Savannah, GA. I went ahead and paid the deposit (non refundable) and then told my parents we had found the venue and were super excited! Well, my dad is really mad that we will not be getting married IN a church. My parents are non-practicing Catholics, and my fiance and I are not practicing in any religion and my fiance really does not want to have our official wedding ceremony in a church which I am fine with but obviously by dad is not. I am really close to my dad and it is important to me that he is happy, but I am not willing to give up my perfect ceremony venue. My first thought was maybe a blessing ceremony in a church the morning after our wedding, which my fiance is fine with, but I dont even know if that is possible. Does anyone have any advice on how I can make a compromise that will make my dad and my fiance and I happy?
