My now husband (still feels weird) and I dated for 5 years. He proposed two weeks before we went to Vegas for my brother's birthday; 30 minutes after, he asked if I wanted to get married while we were in Vegas. I agreed and we started to research. We found an option where we were able to live stream the ceremony for our families to watch, and even to post the video up on social media.
So we got married on 2/8/18 and are still planning a reception for 8/25/18. I keep seeing posts about how it's rude to register for gifts or accept gifts or money from family and friends. I guess I'm a little confused because, at least in our case, we still included our friends and family in our ceremony and we're still spending the money for a big reception.
Please keep in mind that how anyone chooses to start their life as a married couple is up to them, and I'm just looking for everyone's opinions, not their judgments. Thanks
