I've always pictured myself to get eloped while on the "honeymoon". Something between me and my SO and that's it. However the time has come and he proposed (YAY!!!) and he has voiced his opinion finally. Absolutely no to what I had in mind, and he wants the huge wedding of 200+ people. Money is not the issue so I cant tell him no because of that.
I have no idea on how to compromise as I am stuck in the mindset of this is turning out to be nothing that I want. I personally don't want anything larger than parents and siblings (that's 18 people) if we have to include anyone.
I do not like large social events, let alone the fact we would be the center of attention. I don't want to remember the day as exhausting and non-enjoyable either.
I am in need in desperate help of any ideas or advice on how to change my mindset and how to compromise.
I am very close to just telling everyone to do whatever and I'll show up with a smile.
Please and thank you so much!
