Our wedding is set for October 10th with anywhere from 15-23 guests- mostly family and a few close friends. Some guests, if they confirm, will be likely travelling by plane. Both our ceremony and reception will be outdoors at my fiance's parents house which is on a couple acres so can easily social distance. While we will have masks available and hand sanitizer all around, we've been finding out 'rules' that his parents are instilling without telling us about them. It started with them insisting we have a full floor in the tent, which is honestly our biggest expense thus far. They don't want people in their house so they've designated one powder room for all the guests-fine, we completely understand and the other day we found out through his sister that want everyone to wear masks outside. The rules aren't what's upsetting us but rather that they aren't speaking to us directly about it-we are finding out through other people.
We would never want to put anyone at risk and want to have a safe celebration for everyone. We just don't know what to do at this point. We're considering moving everything to our house instead, but I don't know how much that would solve. We're also discussing eloping. I just don't know what to do at this point.
