My fiancé and I got engaged in January 2020, we were supposed to have an engagement party in April of 2020 but because of COVID it had to be canceled. We had put a deposit down and paid for half of...

I've been dealing with a lot of crap recently, and had to come to terms with the harsh reality that basically none of my own family are going to be at my wedding. I think in total, I'm only going to...
