Our wedding plans have been a disaster since the beginning. Our proposal was somewhat ruined due to the family members watching making inappropriate jokes and comments. We can't even show our proposal video due to this. We booked our wedding venue in Philly which is close to where we live but our families are all scattered throughout the country so everyone would have to travel. As soon as we informed our family that it was booked they complained and refused to go since it was so inconvenient for them. So, we lost our deposit and booked another venue in the state I used to live in where about 20 of our guests live near. BUT this was also not convenient enough because it was a 2 hour drive for some. We planned to keep this venue to not lose anymore money but I was laid off from my job in November so we had no choice but to cancel this venue as well. Finally we found a very reasonably price place that is literally 15 minutes from where these 20 people live (this includes my parents, siblings, grandparents, and aunt/uncles). I don't even like it but it will do. Now our issue is that no one is willing to help with recommendations for vendors or anything. My mom decided to throw my bridal shower but messed up the invitations, it doesn't even say it's for a bridal shower on them so no one knows what they're being invited to unless they're close to me and already know the date. I also have to drive 12+ hours to attend this because again no one wanted to travel to where I am. My bridal party hasn't offered any help to me and complains about the dresses being too expensive. I gave them 4 options of which 2 were clearance and the others were on sale. None of them were above $120. I had my matron of honor and another bridesmaid drop out. We've had to cut so much from our wedding that we wanted and all the money promised by our family they have since said they can no longer provide. The whole process has been disappointing. Should I even bother continuing with this? I'm not excited about it and neither is my fiancé. We just want to runaway and elope. My wedding is in July so I'm running out of time to make this decision.
