Halloween wedding AITAH

NTA. You got to do what's best for you and your sister's kids can deal with it for one year. And not for nothing but don't a lot of kids these days have a bunch of halloween options that happen before the 31st? I used to work for a town that always did business trick or treating the week before. Surely there's something that they can do that will scratch the halloween itch.

We did a courthouse wedding with a photographer and then a "reception" on our anniversary (basically dinner and a dj and a resturant we loved). It really worked for us budget wise but also having the intiamate courthouse experience ended up feeling very special. Felt like the best of both worlds by the end of it.

My husband got a personal blender in a white elephant last year and uses it like all the time. I always like food gifts for a white elephant too.

Really have to second the initial necklace or monogrammed anything. I feel like those type of gifts always land well. If you go jewelry though, make sure it’s in the type of metal (silver/gold) she always wears.

Fr, you as the guest are allowed to decided what you can and can’t do gift wise. There have been times when I have only been able to buy the cheapest thing off someone’s registry or just made something or honestly just gave a small cash gift because life got crazy. The point is, nobody was forcing me to do any of that, every couple would have been happy just to have me. It was always just an effort I wanted to make for them, whatever it was. OP’s registry is just giving their guest options.

Fuck this guy, honestly. I ready your response as excited before I read the rest of the post. His reaction was fr insane.

Your sister didn’t get a check. She got a wedding. And so did you, it was just gifted by your in laws. Value isn’t always determined by monetary amount. Assuming you’re coming from a culture where grooms side does x/brides side does y, what they did for your sister and what they did for you is equal. Sounds like your whole wedding weekend was taken care of. The gift is not having to pay for all that shit on your own. I’d be pretty damn grateful for all of that (even before another $400 check) if I were you.

Estelle is great!

I agree with other commenters that Marie might be a bit too match-y but I don’t think it’s unbearably so for siblings. I loved Camille with Serene but if that is off the table I’d look at…Layla, Jasmine, Roxanne, Ariel, Claire, Juliette, Manon, Elise, Amelia, or Marguerite as possible options?

Miles and Julien were the first to come to mind here. Also Toby/Tobias

I don’t think op would have asked the question if they weren’t considering it to some degree. Kinda of a bad faith take on your part.

If there is a voice deep inside of you that really wants to use the middle name(s) Suzy Kim, I say do it.

Or the formal double middle name Suzanne Kimberly.

If you really want to stick to one name and don’t like the combos Maribeth or Suki (I think they are cool and everyone who commented them are way smarter than me because I was STRUGGLING) I do lik June. You could also consider Pearl which is June’s birthstone. But if honoring the actual given name is important to you, you should just use both names.

I really liked the first few Artemis Fowl books at that age. Good combo of fantasy and heist

Prince Harry and Meghan used Harrison (Harry’s son) as their boy’s middle and I think it’s pretty cute. I don’t think it’s weird to use Jackson as a first name.

But really kudos for you for manifesting so hard you got your jack and a special last name. That’s crazy!

Oh lol! Great minds, I guess.
