Wedding Blues...

You are lucky enough as you are married now. You spent little on your marriage function. And now you are enjoying your life after marriage. You have no need to celebrate as you told wedding like fairy. Time has gone and their are hundred and one chances to enjoy the life. You would get a baby a and you should celebrate the birth day of your new born as you wish like fairy wedding. You should wait till that the happy moment of your life come and give you chance to spend much and more. But remember that it is not wise way to spend money on useless functions.

It isn't too late to do a nice one down the road if that is your desire. All you got to do is save and plan and then it will be a reality. You could do it in five years or sooner as a renewal of vows. Nothing wrong with that. Lots of folk get married and they don't have no fancy schmancy affair. I will never forget when I was a child, when they were remembering folks who got married and this one couple got married in the Depression. anyway, they claimed that they didnt have anything, nothing at all, but they did the best they could with what they had. same with you. Just work on something fancier down the road and look forward to that.

Wait and have the reception. It will be well worth the wait. My husband and I had a very small wedding and I regretted it for some time afterwards as well. But in time I became OK with it and you will as well.

Hi, there. Five years to save up for another wedding or renewal of vows sounds reasonable. You can start saving now and then assess on the fourth year if you still want to have your dream wedding. I had the wedding I wanted. I think I must tell you that while it is natural for a girl to have a dream wedding, she must define first what her dream wedding is. I liked my wedding because it had everything I wanted -- a solemn ceremony, no strangers during the reception, we had a lot of inexpensive but pretty flowers and the groom really looked happy! That's about it. In other words, it was not a circus. LOL! I guess what I am saying is that you can have a beautiful wedding without spending too much. Have a nice day!

In my opinion, wedding exists only one day, while life is each day.Happy wedding will be a good memory, while happy life is going with you every day. If only one can be chosen, what will you choose? Obviously, happy life is the key. But the plan of big wedding in the future is also not realistic. Maybe you'll get rid of this plan as the time goes away day by day. Of course, there will be additional one coming into your family. Maybe you can do something worth treasuring up with your child. Anyway, I hope you and every one happy every day.

I'm in a similar situation. I've been with my fiance for a few years now. We already own a house together and almost a year ago had a little girl. I really don't want to go to the justice of the peace to get married but at the same time with weddings being so expensive its really hard to pull off a "big wedding". Right now during my wedding planning it doesnt seem like the wedding industry is even affected by the recession. Items are still expensive and trying to put together something on a budget is hard. I've been told by many people to get married and then have a wedding later and I feel as if we did do that then I would lose sight of a wedding. Kind of what you are going through. I also have been told to do a small wedding and save the money for the honeymoon. Someone brought up a great point in my eyes, you have a life time ahead of you to take "honeymoons" and vacations. To do a wedding instead and enjoy your one special day. I would say if you can have a wedding and its something you have always wanted try and have one a little bit bigger than what you had. Shop around a lot!!! I've found a lot of great deals on ebay and other places. If you want to go all out and do the fairy tale thing and have plans of it being fairly large then I would say to renew your vows at your 5 year and do it then. Best of wishes to you! =]

hey you can get re-married anytime, it seems to big a big thing now a days, save a few bucks and when ya get enough have that blast. save some money and rent a horse and have hubby come prancing in on that white horse. i myself like small weddings, this way you get to spend some quality with good friends before you take that limo to your new life. i think you should really have that wedding you want, but if it takes time so what you'll get there, ive been with annmarie for 11 years and the both of us decided we dont need that piece of paper, now, maybe when it will be in our benefit, when we get older for tax purposes.

A friend of mine did this exact same thing and she keeps saying that she's going to have her dream wedding someday but now they have a two year old so the cost of having a big wedding really isn't practical. I say to save up and have your fairy tale wedding now, you only get to really do it once and every girl deserves it. When you look back at it, you'll be grateful that you did.

Well my dear you are married and you should appreciate the ceremony that you had. What do you want have a lot of so call friends and strangers to come and dine with you and then couple years down the road you wish that you had save this money to purchase a home or to start a family if indeed you already has the family then save the money for the kids education. Appreciate the wedding ceremony that was small intimate and special. It is not the persons who were present but the vow that each of you as individual make. If and when I am getting married it will be as small as you. I will be happy because I will be with the one that has make my heart jump from day one.

Your case is very simular to mine... We got married without any ceremony or wedding or even a marry ring(:-() because we couldn't afford to do anything. He told me we would have a real wedding later maybe this sumer but I have asked him recently how he is thinking about the thing, I think he totally fogot it and was not really going to plan it. It has been bothering me since then, everytime if I said something about this, he said he doesn't know... What you said is exactly right, guys don't care about the wedding and stuff but I really want to be a pretty bride in the church very badly... it only happen ONCE in the life, I don't see it is not important... Oh I really want to put on the whilte wedding dress, have him put on the ring on my finger... :-( I would suggest you to have a fairy tale wedding because 5 years later is gonna be too late. I wish you the best :-)

I understand your feeling blue about not having that big fancy wedding, but you have to think about what is more important to you. Being able to live a nice life, or going in to major debt to have the wedding of your dreams and being miserable because your always wondering and worring about the debt that occured for the wedding. Now, that you've already had a nice small wedding, start saving for other things, buying a house, paying on schooling, or a new car.

Again your financial matters come in to the picture.If you can afford you can have a big reception or else if you want to save some money just live by it. I think therz no need for a big recetion anymore as all whom you know will be knowing that you are married.So why waste money instead of saving it to your children ?

Although you didn't have a big wedding, it was still a good memory you two being wife and husband. Or maybe you can save the money for taking beautiful pictures in a professional studio, wearing a wedding gown. You two can have a beautiful memory too this way. I had a normal wedding, but I took some beautiful pictures wearing gown. I am so happy that I have taken it, as the pictures show lots of our love. It is so sweet to see pictures on my desk now. Have a good day~

In my opinion if you have the money and it won't affect you at all financially and this is something you really want then there is no set amount of years that you can or can't remarry. You can renew your vows anytime you feel like it. A lot of people have small weddings at first and then have a large ceremony to renew their vows. It would be awful to go the rest of your life regretting not having the dream wedding.
