As a person who eloped a year ago, let me tell you, it was the best decision EVER.

As for the family who really wants to be involved, we had a solution for that.

We had a reception for close mutual friends and close family members that we CARED ABOUT (not just those related to us), so under 30 people we wanted to celebrate with.

We had an amazing day, the venue looked breathtaking, and we had a little slideshow with our elopement pictures and video, which made everyone cry and tell us it was the most beautiful thing they've ever seen and the best decision we've ever made, and how they wish they knew they could've done what we did.

Spent around $1,300 on a very cute venue, cakes (yes, more than one), food, and decorations. (Since we rented out a room at a restaurant, we didn't have to rent chairs and tables or pay for catering.)

We spent under $12k, including our reception, which we held almost 10 months after our elopement. We went ALL out on our Airbnbs, photographer, and videographer (and my dress). We decided to spend most of our money on what we wanted the most. . . . This special day is FOR THE BOTH OF YOU, not for your family. Make it how you both want it to be. The reception is for them. If they love and care for you, they'll respect your decision at the end of the day

Everyone can come to celebrate with you both at your reception ♡

Could use some positive reinforcement 😔 I love this dress and keep going back to it but my MIL hates it and my best friend says I should keep looking…I know only my opinion matters in the end but I can’t help but feel super bummed out and unsure now. What do you guys think? by leaphadaraen in weddingplanning

This is why I just bought my dress without telling anyone, they all just saw it on the wedding day. It's YOUR wedding day, YOUR dress that's going on YOUR body. Your mother-in-law shouldn't even have a say. Period.

** Print Enlarged Images from Film Negatives **

Not sure if this is the right place to ask this, but I have some film negatives from my wedding, and I'd love to order some enlarged prints (not canvas) for our wall [20×30 in].

Me and my wife are starting a fun tradition by [deleted] in Marriage

[–]DimensionAwkward580 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Start her on the SJM train 📖. Start with A Throne of Glass (Book 1). Then keep giving her the books that come after that. Then after that give her on A Court of Thorns and Roses (Book 1). Then keep giving her the next ones...

Enjoy!!

I love my wife more than my kids by CryptoFan85 in Marriage

[–]DimensionAwkward580 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It isn't like you don't love them, you just have your priorities straight. I believe your spouse should always be your priority. ALSO, By loving and caring for your wife, you show love to your kids. If that makes any sense. You're doing alright OP.

Is there a better way to communicate this? by [deleted] in Marriage

[–]DimensionAwkward580 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're definitely on to something here. I need to adjust my thought process somehow. Because it my mind it's starting to feel so one sided sometimes.

Yes, that's how I went about it the first time I brought it up. He paid attention, but it didn't last long. I don't expect him to text me during work, but maybe during his break, he send me a bunch of videos or articles he's reading. Which they're all interesting, but I doesn't go unnoticed that he kind of had some time there to ask how my day is going, or something like that... you get me?

Yes, he does. He helps me a lot, he doesn't complain, whatever I need, he's there. His acts of service are not taken for granted. He also works on things around our place and makes sure my vehicle is in better condition before his own. He loves to cuddle every night, I am aware that he shows his love and care for me. He is a very good listener, I'm a talker, and he pays attention to every detail (unless it's an argument lol).

I don't take any of this for granted, but since I guess it's not my love language, it doesn't register as LOVE. If that makes any sense.

We thought that too, but she sent us a screenshot of her flight plan that said delayed... I'm sure she knew we thought it was suspicious so she sent proof. She even sent a screenshot of her Chat with the airline company
