    OP, ever heard the phrase "Man plans and God laughs"?  I'm LMFAO at your wedding "plans".  Good luck with that!

    On a serious note...

    OP- Why is it so awful for your FSIL to have a 2.5 hr gap, but yet, it's ok for you to have an 8 hour gap? I don't see the logic behind this.

    Also, BOOM. It's clearly not "a Catholic thing." Catholics clearly don't ski, nor have we EVER consumed alcohol in excess like only THESE people do, so don't blame this gap on us.

    As a guest I would be PISSED to have to wake up before 6am and drive home after midnight OR spend $$ on a two night stay a resort (that I cannot afford). Plus with being cold and uncomfortable as hell from standing in the freezing cold in heels, and then have to spend a crap ton more on entertainment for 8 hours (never cheap or free stuff at a resort) or beg for a place to get cleaned up for the reception if I drove in so so you can have an evening reception. Yeah I would be pissed and definitely would not be giving a gift.

    Pfft if by formal you mean a down parka, omni heat pants, and insulated boots! I would def not wear anything formal to that ceremony.

    It should be fine. Your guests will have plenty to do in between, don't worry about all the snarky comments here. Your wedding sounds wonderful.
