My fiance's entire family as well as some of my family is in Greece. We met here I was born here most of my family and friends are here. Bottom line, we have a lot of people here and a lot of people there. We decided to have a wedding there since we will be living here. I want to do this for him and his family since we do not get to see them as often as we would like. Also, I think for those who will be able to make the trip that it will be a great memory and experience.
I still need to host something for the people here who will not be able to make the trip. I was thinking of having a shower before the wedding, which is something that my mother and I would have to plan since I am not having a bridal party. I know that majority of the guests and their families will not be able to make the wedding in Greece. Is this bad form? Should we not do a shower and just have a party when we return from Greece? I am going to send out save the dates and was planning on sending invitations to everyone and see who comes and when we come back send wedding announcements and invitation to a party after but how would I word that? I'm lost...if anyone has any suggestions...I can use some fair guidance.
