So here's the thing... Since we got engaged, my fiancé and I decided we would go the jazz cabaret way all the way. We just love the music, the ambiance in jazz clubs, cocktails dresses and menswear from the 40s! We even booked the oldest jazz cabaret still in use in Montreal for our wedding ceremony and reception in February 2013! So exciting!
The thing is that we're going to one of my cousins' wedding next month, in February. I learnt recently that his fiancée and him are also doing the exact same theme as us... Music, colours, short dress, name it. I'm very fine with the fact that we are actually using our interest in jazz and swing dance to give a special twist to our respective weddings. But we are also in a very judging family, and I'm alreay scared of all the comparisons and bad comments that may arise from this situation...
What should I do? Changing our theme is out of the question, since the jazz cabaret is already booked and we already gave a deposit. (and we love it so much!!) But how can I prevent anyone from being upset (including myself) in the whols thing and prevent any judgmental comments that could hurt??
