Oh parents. So well-meaning but can really get you wound up inadvertently. Let me guess—you need to plan for out of town family and stuff?
well the trouble with E and I….everyone is out of town except for us and our friends here. I was just hoping to keep it say..50 ppl small, and now it looks like we’re either need to do 200 ppl small and/or do a couple receptions in Edmonton and possibly Vancouver.
Receptions! You can travel. Plus, more food. :)
Ahhh but feeding people several times…and flights…uggh. I know. It all gets out of control so quickly. and suddenly it can feel like it isn’t about you guys anymore so much as it’s accommodating everyone.
..it’s allowing the community to show their support…. aaaand on the upside it sounds like mom and dad will pay for a lot of it to help do what’s right. the beauty of the internet… it’s not just the village anymore..it’s the world lol
I vote for travel, and maybe see if there are restaurants that can do a buffet instead of renting a hall. Downside: less dancing.
I’m sure it’s going to turn out beautiful and that everyone will have an amazing time – I’m sure everyone reading this is looking forward to seeing how tea will be incorporated into the wedding, hehe.
(We eloped, by the way.)
Anna… sounds great! hahahaha
OMG – E would be fine with less dancing. haha
on a random side note.. E totally wants to have it in chicago at the museum…apparently you can have your reception in with the dinosaurs and sleep there over night hahaha
The Field Museum is AWESOME, I so love that E’d be down with that – I’ve seen them prep for receptions and it’s really something. (I also got married in Chicago, at the Hancock!)
I recently went to a wedding in Chicago at the Shedd Aquarium… best wedding ever! Having cocktail hour with the dolphins and eating next to a huge coral reef was amazing.
ooh fun!
OMG… with dinosaurs and sleeping there???? What event can I have…
hahaha a tea party nicole!
That settles it. Once I win the lottery there will be a tea party with dinosaurs.
YAAAY!!
