My soon to be finace and I are planning on getting married before he deploys in Sept 2011. At first we thought we'd have a small wedding with immediate family members and close friends and then have a big wedding (vow renewal with the reception being a big party) when he comes back from deployment. Its always been my dream to have a big wedding, but I'm wondering if by having a small wedding if the big one will be pushed to the side and just never happen. Is it smart to just go through with the small wedding and have a big one later or should we just have a medium sized wedding that way we don't have to plan two weddings. My Marine is fine with either option so I just don't know what to choose!! Any advice would be appreciated
