My fiance can't get the Navy to grant leave time for our wedding date. He is in Guam... the wedding was to be in Arizona. The date we picked- March 15th... is very significant to both of us...

Do I fly out to Guam solo so we can still get married on our day?

Or do we wait another year?

My family will not attend regardless of where/when.
His mother suggested this alternative, even though his family will miss our day... (we would have a reception at a later date when he can get leave time).

Thoughts?

Tis your choice.

If its true love then the "ceremony" is just a process..you can wait another year...right?

I would wait another year. You want family there on your big day! And, you've been together for awhile I'm assuming-so what's 1 more year?

you can either go there and get hitched then have a fancy ceremony when he can get leave or wait, personally i would just have a fancy one after the fact.

singing, if you are ready then go and be married on your special day and then pick a good time for the party. it is never about the party. and everyone will be so happy that you did not have to wait.

Go go go! The marriage is about the two of you. Especially if it is a special day and you can get yourself there and can make arrangements for the kiddies.

Reception at a later date so I can wear the butt bow dress!

Hugs, M

WOW! I love you guys!

I was thinking the same things you are...
most of my "real life" friends said it was nuts to even consider it. They said "If he loves you he'll make the effort"... BS!

YES- I am ready (now)... S1ow... if I have a cam... I will throw cake at you... wait... umm... if there's a cake...

AND Michelle... you are totally wearing a BUTT BOW dress... (in plum purple)...

I will send lots of pics...bigsmile
