My cousin just announced via Facebook: We wanted to have a huge wedding this year that everyone is invited to, but sadly we can't afford that. So we decided instead to have a smaller wedding and in a year or so we are going to have a big wedding that everyone is invited to!!! She then goes on to say, sorry for those I haven't been able to invite yet but it is a really small venue. (So, I guess I'm not invited, when I was invited to her previous plan, which is completely fine but I didn't expect to find that out from a Facebook post haha).
I probably won't say anything to her but I would be thankful to hear suggestions. I just don't want to come off as judgmental because I am having my dream wedding later this year so I know we are in different financial situations. It's just that after reading the PPD boards I completely get it, by her saying she already wants a second wedding she has in her mind that the first one won't be special enough. I completely disagree, just because a wedding is small that doesn't make it any less special and there is NO reason to reboot it. Honestly, the only thing that frustrates me about this situation is that some family members might choose her wedding over mine due to financial reasons. Which I would normally be fine with but they will choosing a wedding that the bride doesn't even see as special enough. Hopefully as she starts to plan her wedding she will get more excited and realize she DOESN'T need a PPD.
