orangele Posted January 9, 2007 Posted January 9, 2007 Well I am planning to get married in San Diego where I was born. The main reason being to help save costs as well as the travel for my elderly mom. The issue is that I really am pretty shy and not very social, and I really want a very small wedding. I have alot of family in the area (cousins, uncles, aunts) that with the exception of one aunt, have had virtually no contact with in many years. Would it be in really bad taste not to invite my cousins, aunts etc. who live close by? My fiancee is from out of the country, and none of her relatives can come, so ALL the guests will be from my family.
laRubiaBonita Posted January 9, 2007 Posted January 9, 2007 yes... i do think there would be hard feelings there. why not just invite them to the reception?
Craig Posted January 9, 2007 Posted January 9, 2007 Look it's your wedding and if you want it small keep it small and don't worry about inviting the local relatives. There is a reason they call them small weddings.
O'Malley Posted January 9, 2007 Posted January 9, 2007 It's your wedding, so do what makes you both feel comfortable. If anyone asks, just explain your fiancee's family isn't able to come and you both prefer a more quiet ceremony.
