Who has been tempted to elope instead of plan a big wedding? Who said it? Next Question: Who said it? - “We have to invite all of my cousins”

    Neither. We both have always desired to have a wedding and we both come from big families. It would probably start WWIII if we did. HA!

    We both have said this a few times, especially when I start getting overwhelmed about everything. But when push comes to shove, we both want the wedding with loved ones there.

    Me too! At least 3x in a day. I've had to move a date several times for various reasons so I get frustrated but we are still moving forward with the wedding...

    Hi Teresa! That's great you've both always had your eye & focus on the traditional wedding day? Will yours be a big or small wedding? Smiley heart

    Maren-

    We are having a smallish wedding. We have about 118 guests on the list, but if 30% don't show, it will be more like 85 people. We look at it as a hell of a party interrupted by a wedding!

    I've honestly thought about it but what most people refer to as "eloping" isn't actually eloping. Most people say it and more so are referring to a destination wedding, not truly running away and getting married secretly.

    That's true, the definition and idea of it has definitely evolved, depending on the situation! I never thought of it that way

    Neither of us. We've waited 33 years to be together so we want to celebrate that

    My parents! Hahaha. They offered to contribute $x for the wedding and give us $(1/2)x if we eloped.

    Most definitely me. I do not like attention, so I was okay with not having a big wedding.

    Me! I say it pretty much every single week! I want to just go right back to Iceland, and have something small for just us two.
