Answer 1

Remember it is your and your partners day, dont let anyone ruin it. Remember too that it is only one day and over in the blink of an eye, I got married this august and dont have family on my side apart from my mum and (3 aunties that i dont get on with) they were informed that i was getting married but not invited, we got married on a friday so only people that really wanted to be there were. You should let them know so they cant say you didnt give them a chance, but go with your gut feelings. You can have a beautiful day for next to nothing, personally i wanted a dress that made me feel like a bride, so looked at all the sale dress in the wedding shops, and found one for £60 from £700! it needed dry cleaning and taking in but hey £60 to feel like a princess! I felt photos were the most important thing to us, memories of our day, so phoned around photographers 2 weeks before and asked if they were free on the friday for the registy office, i ended up with a proftional all day for £100. Is there a nice hotel that would do a buffet for you for after? What about just doing 1st drinks and cake? Is there someone you know that could do the cake? Ask everyone you tell if they know someone. For flowers what about buttonholes for him and bestman and flowers on your wrist for you? Best of luck, remember it's about the rest of your lifes not just one day.

Answer 2

Yes you should tell your father that you are getting married. He might even like to give you away that could help to heal the rift between the two of you.

Also you need to tell your partner that your wedding is going to be the happiest day of your life and you do not want to go to the pub afterwards. Why don't you just have a small wedding at a registry office and then afterwards you and close friends and family can go to a nice restaurant and celebrate.

Or why don't you visit some hotels and she is if would be possible to get married in once of them.

An alternative would be not to have the wedding in this country but combine your wedding and honeymoon and have it overseas

Answer 3

You should definitely tell them you're engaged. If you don't get on with them now, wait until you see how mad they are when they find out they weren't told you were getting married. If you ever want to make up with them you need to bite your tongue and tell them.

Now on to the wedding. You dont' have to spend loads of money to have a lovely wedding but you don't have to just have chips down the pub either. How about booking one of those wedding holidays where you get married in Barbados that way you have an excuse for not inviting anyone you don't want to come. In fact you can just go the 2 of you and have a party down the pub for your mates when you get back.

Answer 4

If you could spend a little money, a location wedding would be wonderful. You can get great packages to get married at Jamaica or the Beach or Vegas. This would make it a little more memorable and nice, not there is anything wrong w/ the JP. You could even ask two special friends or another couple to go with you so they could be your witnesses.

As far as whether you should tell your family...trust your gut. You will have to tell them eventually so why not go ahead and tell them. It doesn't mean you have to invite them to the ceremony.

Whatever you end up choosing...Good Luck & have a happy future together!

Answer 5

Honey, you're getting married. Wait a day on the chips. Informal is fine, but casual becomes careless far too easily.

As to your family, by all means tell them. Certain things you tell family: if you're having a child, a sex change, a major operation, or a wedding. It's up to them to support you or not, but at least give them the opportunity.

Congrats on the wedding. Enjoy the day!

Answer 6

How about a civil ceremony at some kind of "pub-like" venue? That way, he gets his pub atmosphere and you get your ceremony. You can usually customise these in any way you like as long as the basic wording is along the lines of the marriage ceremony.

Talk to the local registry office.

Answer 7

I would tell them, you may get presents!
Also, get married at a friend's home with your friends and *family of creation* there to celebrate with you. Friends of mine got married in my backyard and then we had a huge Bollywood style party where everyone dressed in Sari's, and I cooked a feast...and no one in the group was Indian! It was awesome and full of love. People left very late, and we all had a great time.

Answer 8

nicely as quickly as the couple are married and on my own she shud tell him btw i'm compelled.. if he became right into a acceptable guy he could set her unfastened from his and her misery. a guy can not stress himself on the spouse yet relies upon what u recommend by making use of that. If a guy (my husband) does it in anger then i could kick him there yet whilst i became into drained and he wanted it i assume i could sleep with him if he did not anticipate lots of me lol. this could nicely be a severe answer. She could merely declare rape if that's what it became into.. _______________ nicely she married him to delight her relatives suitable?? the two tell him u dnt wanna be married or sleep with him. A husband has rights too not his fault she became into compelled.. all adult males prefer intercourse after so she the two be's honest or does it. she would be in a position to't marry somebody and say no in many circumstances going on.. did he stress himself on her thinking she became into shy? like in a jokey way there are alot of issues that a guy can think of.. confident FFS examine good.. no rely if that's RAPE THEN confident @jihad, she agree's to extreme high quality intercourse not somebody attacking her 4 it. And if she became into compelled to be with him he shud be placed off no?? she is a human with thoughts not an animal.. that's the reason i reported she could tell him how she feels not merely say no like that. he will think of she;s the two shy or not waiting.. he will nevertheless attempt regardless.

Answer 9

Sounds like what I just went thru.... I decided to go to Las Vegas and for aout $200 I got about 100 pic. flowers, limo, and the chapel and minister.... I didn't tell my parents.... I am going to send a pic in with my christmas card.... Then that way they can see how much we love each other...
