I already booked the venue, but I find out that it's on the same day as the college graduation. There isn't many hotels in this town, and the only two I find acceptable for my out of town guests are BOOKED! Otherwise it's a 50 minute drive to a decent resort hotel.
We are hoping to change the date to the following weekend (if the venue allows and it's not already booked. Nothing was booked in that time a few weeks ago) but when we mention this to my fiance's mother, she wants us to wait until next month when she finds out ithe date of the convention she will be attending which is usually in May, but could be in June.
I'm afraid of waiting that long to change the date on the venue, plus our save the dates should have been sent out a long time ago.
Am I out of line to book the date like NOW? I can't check with everybody to see if our wedding date fits their schedule or summer plans. But I would hope her son's wedding is more important than a convention. She's already got me feeling bad about having a photographer at our wedding since she is major cameraphobic, and guilty about having even just 35 people because she has a social phobia issue.
