So my FH and I live in Salt Lake City, UT and we live here because we love to recreate and play in the surrounding mountains (ski, hike, mountain bike, camp, etc). The mountains are big part of us, it’s our favorite place to be, it’s where we met. Thus, we plan on getting married in the mountains surrounding Salt Lake. So we chose and booked our dream venue that’s in our budget and it happens to be at 8500ft.
Here is the issue…my mother(MOB) has COPD. This means she dosent do well in high altitudes, and has to wear oxygen. She has an oxygen device (looks like a medium sized purse) and wears it when she flys on planes, but typically doesn’t wear it a majority of the time when she’s below 6000 ft (she lives at sea level). She is now SO upset about the venue we chose and that she will have to wear her oxygen at our wedding.
However, the only thing that matters to us with our wedding is our wedding location... We want it to feel true to my FH and I. And theres no other place than in the mountains above 6000ft.
But, are we being selfish? Do we change our wedding venue just for her?
