I'm wondering if anyone has tips on this one, sorry it's a long one but everyone is complaining, we are ready to leave town but would like to share our day with the people we care about.
We don't really feel the need for a bridal party, it's not practical for us, financiall, spatially and emotionally. First off, financially we can't afford the extra cost, second, it's in my parents backyard garden/patio, in the city and there isn't a lot of space, a bridal party would be blocking everyone's view and third, I have 2 friends vying for the position of maid of honor, yet it would have to be my sister and they don't seem to understand that I just want to keep it simple.
Next, one of the same friends (we are life long friends) is trying to push the idea of having a flower girl but we are not even inviting our own neices and nephews. She even mentioned today that her husband may not come them to stay home and watch her because how can they find a babysitter for a Sunday? I don't understand this because they have until August! She did mention that he was "frankly offended that the daughter wasn't invited".
How do we handle these situations? I thought the adults would love a night to themselves, I know that we would.
Thanks ladies for any input and for letting me get it out!
