    Is there a reason you want to move it up? Btw...March 22, 2014 is our date!! We could possibly be wedding date twins :-) Original was June 29, 2013. Our reason was numerous illnesses/hospitalizations therefore finances were unavailable for what we want to do.

    There is not a real reason I am just excited and want to marry FI. At first i thought about a November date but was kind of concerned because of hurricane season in Florida by that date it will have ended the day before and then his grandma brought up that she is elderly and might not make it she not sick just mature lol and then after we booked a venue for that date he was like why the wait.. I know that it could be paid for by then I just feel kind of silly for flip flopping the date that's why I haven't really told people what the date was... Also being that nov is a few months away will I still have time to order a dress and stuff and have international family able to fly in and have to get super expensive airline tickets

    I think if you changed the date you should be able to get whatever you want and do whatever it is that you want to do...you still have some time but you could always do something small like a courthouse wedding just to have the grandparents there and still plan for the big event in March and pray God lets them live to see that day as well...HTH

    Agree with misstira. Believe me! We are both anxious...ESP now since shortly after the new year is when we decided to push it out. We could have been having our wedding this June :-( We agonized about changing it, but, it would be less stress...and be able to organize more finances by pushing it. We tossed around the idea of getting married anyway this March because we really don't want to wait (same date, so we could keep same anniversary) and having the big ceremony/reception next March as planned. However, FI lives in FL. I live in Boston. Wedding is held is Boston. Our pastor will not perform our ceremony if we are married and did not complete Pre-Marital Counseling....it's a requirement if I want THEM specifically to do it...and I do. Since FI in FL, it's difficult to try to complete the counseling in less than a month time at this point. Soooo....we decided to wait. Also, decide rather soon with those factors you mentioned if you want to move it up...to allow your distant family time to plan and travel. You have 11 months. You have time. Did you say you already booked a venue? Are they able to change the date for you?
    You have my WHOLE heart for my WHOLE life!

    Hey lady.. Good going. i feel you on being anxious.. and i'm glad you was able to get the date changed. Everything will work out the way you want, and you still have a lot of time.. So what shall we start with first.. Your Dress... DO you have an idea?  and start telling your OOT guests.. Whoever is meant to be there will be there, regardless.. So glad you got what you wanted.. see. it was meant for you to have a November wedding.. :-)
