Wedding planning has been extremely stressful for me, mostly because I work pretty much around the clock and can't handle high added stress. Also because it seems like everything has gone wrong.
At the beginning of our planning we experienced personal loss which postponed the wedding. Then we scheduled a date, cancelled due to high stress, and rescheduled a much smaller wedding. It was all going smoothly- but now that we are a month away, I am being bombarded by everyone asking if they are invited (obviously not since they didn't get an invitation,) having to explain to people that its just immediate family. People who are sincerely offended by that for some reason. My sister in law won't stop asking me about flowers, cake, my wedding veil, alterations on my dress.
All but 3 of my invitations that I worked so hard on are M.I.A, my mom moved shortly after I mailed my invites and didn't even tell me, so at least two of them (if they even arrived) just went to waste.
Yesterday I sat down with FH and just had to cry it out because of everything going on. I want to get married, but I am starting to realize that maybe a court house wedding is the right thing for us.
He agrees, but now how am I supposed to tell everyone? I told my best friend (who had already bought her airline ticket), she was super understanding and obviously I'm going to send her a check to cover that.
It's 28 people, most are family. I think the issue I don't want to face is people asking even more questions, and even more people being offended.
