I always dreamed of the "typical" large wedding, probably mostly because that's all I've ever known. FH and I have decided to have a really small town hall wedding and only invite immediate family, and just go for lunch afterwards. I'm fine with that because neither of us like being the centre of attention.
However yesterday and today I've started noticing myself get a little sad that I won't be having the typical wedding, and this morning I got a message from my favourite aunt/godmother asking if we'd decided when and where we're going to get married and that they'd love to come if they're invited. This is the first time that I really feel REALLY bad about saying that it's only immediate family. When my friends asked when we announced our engagement it was fine (sad, but fine) but I am feeling really sad about this. I was assuming - because my family all lives in Australia and we live in Germany - that none of my family other than my parents would be able to make the trip.
