We are just coming off of October which has been a whirlwind month. My 14 year old daughter from my previous marriage just started high school and is in the marching band. Turns out Oct is their most busy month with competitions, Homecoming, amongst other games and community things they perform at. I'm wondering if our date of 10/1 is fairly reasonable given it is the beginning of October. Thing is, we are getting married in Vegas (we live in WA state), and I would have to pull her from either a competition or game that weekend.
I don't want to change my date as we have our venue and our hotel rooms booked. My question is, can we do it all? A little stressed over this, didn't realize how busy band was until this month. It's dying down now as our football season is over and they have only one competition remaining. I'm not terribly involved in the band stuff, except for donating meals, food, etc, I just don't have time to allocate to volunteering or attending EVERY function, and I have been side eyed by some of the parents. I don't want my daughter to get in trouble because we have our wedding during their busy season, but come on...
Thoughts? Anyone done this before?
