My husband and I recently got married at the courthouse with only our immediate family due to the fact that he is active duty military and it was decided that it was best if we do it sooner than later. We still are planning on doing a big formal ceremony and reception with ALL of our family and friends and it is currently planned for our 1st anniversary. Most of our family and friends know we got hitched and are planning something for everyone to attend. Is it appropriate to have all of the things we would have had if we would have just waited until we had the BIG ceremony (i.e. bridal shower, bridesmaids, save the dates, etc.)
