My siser, 33, has a 2 year old and her husband to be has an 11 year old from someone else. They have been together for years and got engaged last Christams. Her original date was Oct. 27. A few months ago, she moved it up to Sept 4. I have always wanted a summer wedding and so does my fiance. I'm also 36 1/2 and we'd like to have kids right after the wedding. I am also a teacher and can't afford to take a week of work off unpaid. So, we want to get married July 24, which would be before my sister. However, my sister and my family are not approving of this! They said Fall or next summer. We said we can help our financially too. Baisclly, this entire process should be fun, exciting, and enjoyable, but it's becoming nothing but tears and stress. What are your thoughts? Am I being unreasonable? I think we have waited this long and should be able to have the wedding we'd like as well. It shouldn't have to completely revolve around someone else! Please help! This is tearing me up inside!
