Our 1st wedding was in a courthouse and my husband knows how much I want to have a wedding. Are there any do's or donts that I should know about?

    Just one:  Do It YOUR Way!!!!

    If I understand correctly, you are already married?  If it was recently, you could have a reception and go big...or will you be renewing your vows?  I'm a bit confused but regardless of your situation, there's no reason not to have the whole big wedding with all the trimmings if it's what you both want and you can afford it!  Just make sure you're both on the same page before it takes off like a runaway train...and it will, lol.

    Congratulations!

    You're already married - it's a vow renewal.  Your wedding was the courthouse.

    yes it is a vow renewal. We are looking at doing it for our 3rd Anniversary, 2013. Our original wedding was kind of rushed due to geographical circumstances.

    A lot of people here really object to big fancy vow renewals as a "I-didn't-get-the-wedding-I-wanted-in-the-first-place-so-I'm-having-a-do-over" celebration.

    However, as long as all of your guests know that you are already married, which I'm assuming they do, and it's truly a vow renewal, then go for it.   You shouldn't expect any showers (since you're already married) or bachelor/bachelorette parties.  And I would try to tone-down some of the "newleywed" stuff -- bouquet/garter toss, etc.
