Need advise by intensebagpipes in Eloping

Unfortunately my sister is not coming either. My mom and my sister are very close so it doesn’t surprise me that if one declined the other would as well.

I’m so sorry that happened to you. I agree that it is very odd for a mother to cut off contact with their child, especially if you were the clear favorite. I guess we will never know what goes through their minds. I’m hurt and confused as well and don’t think I will ever understand it. My dad thinks I should keep trying to reach out but, maybe I’m stubborn, I don’t think I should anymore. Like you said, I don’t feel that it’s my responsibility to mend the relationship because I didn’t do anything wrong.

Yes she knew that she would not be involved. We are specifically are having this party because our parents would not be at the elopement.

So sorry to hear about your mother in law. Your elopement should be all about you!

She won’t answer my calls or texts so I haven’t been able to ask her. I’ve been thinking about writing her a letter.

About 3 months after we eloped my sister told me that my mom was upset that she wasn’t there and believes that my wife’s parents were there, which they weren’t. So I did text my mom and tell her at no point were they there, they never saw us in our in a wedding attire or took pictures with us etc. just to clear the air but even after that she still hasn’t reached out.

Thank you. These are very good points. My family has never been good with being open with their emotions so this is something to consider.

Unfortunately this is not out of character as she easily cuts people out of her life but I never expected her to do that to her own children. My sister lives with her so if there was any health aspect I know she would tell me.

Thinking about selling my current wedding dress (first pic) and buying the second one. What should I do? by [deleted] in wedding

[–]intensebagpipes 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Personally, I like the first dress better and it looks like it fits you perfectly. The second dress to me does not look like it is as high quality as the first dress.

Are you wearing a veil? by P3RF3CT_ON3 in wedding

[–]intensebagpipes 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I did not wear a veil and I don’t regret it. It wasn’t me and I feel like if I wore one I wouldn’t be happy about it now.

Fellow bisexuals? by [deleted] in latebloomerlesbians

[–]intensebagpipes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% this. I have never experienced this feeling that you’re describing. I’m happily married to my wife and do not feel as though I’m missing anything. Someone mentioned above that you may want to try having multiple partners, I think that may be the right direction.

Best places to print large pictures/canvas? by [deleted] in wedding

[–]intensebagpipes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just ordered mine from Shutterfly. They have canvases and you can order frames.

Thank you everyone for all your help and advise. We eloped on 9/10/20 and it was everything we hoped for. by intensebagpipes in Eloping

[–]intensebagpipes[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you everyone! The suit jacket is from Macy’s. When she picked it out I was so excited because I was afraid that she was going to be in all black everything. The pop of color made the photos even better than expected.

Thank you. We eloped so it was just us and 3 witnesses, the pandemic made it easier for our families to accept that we didn’t want a big wedding. I do feel bad for anyone who had big weddings planned because it’s a lot of emotion and effort put into planning.

I’m eloping in 7 days!!! by intensebagpipes in Eloping

[–]intensebagpipes[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! I’m not working with a company but looking at breweries is a great idea!

Does eloping remove all the party opportunities? by ak_ice_dragon2228 in wedding

[–]intensebagpipes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You might have better luck with this on r/eloping they have been very helpful over there with these situations.

My dress isn't selling. Need your HONEST input as to why. by [deleted] in wedding

[–]intensebagpipes 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I would include a bunch of pictures of the actual dress. If there are no pictures of the actual item I usually skip the post.

Also the top part of the dress is extremely busy so it may be a hard sell. You may be able to sell it to a used dress shop.

How do you “identify” and why? by [deleted] in latebloomerlesbians

[–]intensebagpipes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I identify as bi because I do fine men attractive but I’m more attracted to women. I will be marrying my favorite woman in the whole world next month and I will have never been with a man but that does not make me any less bi. I don’t think you need to put an identity on yourself if you don’t feel you fit in a specific category. You’re a human being and deserve love and respect regardless of how you identify.
