June 2012 Weddings

Ready to go crazy! I wish we could stick with someting!

We changed our date back to the 23rd. Chad's aunts were getting their panties in a twist and we didn't want to deal with it for a year. Chad mentioned that maybe we should do it on a Saturday, since more people can come and that means more potential money. That is what ultimately swayed him. (Bad, I know.)

I told him that he can make that decision, and I really didn't care either way, I was just trying to save us money. We discussed it with is Dad and he would rather have it on a Saturday too. So we switched.

I kind of feel like they "won". They being all the ones complaining. I am kind of irritated by that, but I will get over it. I joked with FFIL that if his sisters complain about anything else, they aren't invited! :) He laughed and said okay. They just have too much time on their hands and nothing better to do than complain about stuff that doesn't matter. It is nothing new, and I kind of expect it. :S

  • it's just a little hiccup.  we were going to do a sunday to save money and decided that saturday would be better for our guests and that was more important to us (the difference in $ wasn't very much).  my sister is getting married on a thursday and FI and i are going to have to miss 3 days of school for it.  in the end, it may be a little bit more money but hopefully the absence of the auntie headache will be worth it.  and i don't think it's bad that your FI was thinking about the gifts!  :)

  • I don't think people realize how crazy planning a wedding can make you feel until they plan one themselves! I'm sorry you had to go through this! Hopefully things will settle down now.

    This is comepletely unrelated, but my FI's name is Chad too :)
