Personally I would have been way too anxious
and nervous doing the whole ceremony part in
front of too many people, I really wanted it to
be very intimate. So we decided to have our big
party with extended friends and family the next
day for New Year’s Eve instead.
Another big reason behind doing it small was
because I really didn’t want to go to work on
my wedding day, which inevitably would have
happened if we had a lot going on with loads of
people to host.
I could give plenty of advice to couples planning
their weddings but the one thing I’d say is
to please please please, do what is right for you
and your partner.
Yes it might cause a few eyerolls from the
aunt you see once a year, and questioning from
your parents neighbour but at the end of the
day, how much of a role will they play in your
life and marriage? If they are integral to your
daily life then of course they will be on the
guest list, if not and if they truly recognised
that your wedding is about you and not them
then they will wish you well and support you.
I always say plan for your future and not your
past, while I’m sure your better half or parents
would like to invite everyone they ever met in
school, college, work, that one time in the local
pub, along to the wedding, well when was the
last time you really spent anytime with those
people, and do you actually know them?
So, you do you! You won’t regret it, I promise
you!
