Autumn Wedding
If you know me, you know that Dan and I have been together for seven years now. The plan is to get engaged soon, although up until now I really wasn't ready. Having my own parents go through a terrible divorce before I can remember, most of my childhood memories involve two adults fighting over what weekend was theirs. I remember in small child mind that you were supposed to share your toys so why not your kid too? Daniel also comes from a divorced home, although his happened when he could remember the details... sometimes I think I was lucky, I mean how can you miss something you never had, right?
But this entry isn't going to be depressing, that was just to explain why I was hesitant on the while to death do you part business. I am ready now. And I am hoping that we can have our wedding in October or November of 2013 (providing that whole Mayan Calender thing doesn't wipe out life on this Earth as we know it- hardee har har!) so that is what this blog is dedicated too, either our wedding in our home state- or destination wedding in Key West, FL.

As I don't have a lot of friends so I am sure that the wedding party will be somewhat small. We are also on somewhat of a budget... a small one. Which is why I think destination may be the smarter way to play. However, my grandmother isn't in the best health and I know there's no chance in hell that she could ever make it to Key West, FL. I've always loved fall so either way I want to get married in late October or early November, it would be beautiful here so the foliage could be caught on film, but, I would hate to rent a venue and no one show up. Then you just wasted a lot of money. So here are some pictures of what I would do no matter which we choose.
That was for our home state kind of wedding, which has a sort of whimsical kind of quality to it. But this would be our destination wedding, after living in Florida for as long as we did it's also home.
So really, how are supposed to decide between the two? They are both so pretty and both are probably pretty expensive!
Love and white dresses,
Stephanie
My sister is getting married in Aug 2013, her and her fiance went through the same dilemma, it was when they started looking at venues that it slotted into place where they should marry- Like a dress you'll probably come across a destination that is 'the one' too!
ReplyDeleteGood luck xx
thank you! it's very confusing and stressful and we are at the starting point! can't wait to see if it gets worse before it gets better! lol!!
DeleteWe chose destination because we only wanted the people who truly care for us to be there. We knew only those who really wanted to be there would travel and we wouldn't end up having to pay for rude people we didn't even like, but showed up anyways :) So excited for you and Dan!!
ReplyDeletei know that's my thought. i don't want to have an open bar and feed people that are only there for the free food! but even if i had it in tulsa, it would still be like a destination wedding for some of my family! i will keep it posted here as the plans go on!!
