My lavish or modest wedding, what to choose?

Women have dreamed about their wedding since they were little right down to the perfect dress, place, and don't forget their perfect man in their life.. I can see why you are having a hard time making that decision..You want everything to go like you've always wanted to.. You have to think about who are you doing it for? .if you decide to go modern it would probably be a little bit easier on the pocket money..depending on who's paying for it... I found a site that may help you have that dream wedding of yours.. Good luck, Vanessa http://tinyurl.com/c5jcblu

I think it depends on the people in your life. I personally will probably always have a big wedding because my family is huge. You should figure out what you will feel happiest having. If a big wedding is stressing you out, don't have it! It's your day, and you should be happy and planning it should be a fun occasion, rather than a stressful one.

Hello :). A modest wedding is better, since there are less people involved, you only invite the most important people. When you make a big wedding and you invite a lot of people, you end up inviting people you don't care about and they end up judging or badmouthing everything, which is an unnecessary cause of stress. Also, a modest wedding is cheaper which means you are left with more money for you and your partner to enjoy or to prepare for the future. I don't know why people even make huge weddings, since they also mean more hassle and worries to get it ready, and also the more things you add, the more possibility something can go wrong. After all, when you are getting married you should enjoy it with your partner, and the only reason to make a big wedding is to show off to others, which is kind of worthless.

On my personal opinion, I would always prefer a small wedding where only close friends and family can partake the celebration. However, we don't exactly have a small family. I have 62 cousins on the father side and 50+ on the mother side. As per my mom's request, I have to invite all of them and most of her friends. On my beau's side is a different story. He doesn't have as many relatives but they belong in a very rich clan so it would be somewhat of an insult to invite them and serve mediocre food. I'm caught between deciding on the same dilemma. You should talk to your partner and decide together. You could always cut some and add some in the process such as paying less for flowers but paying extra to make the reception more lavish. Good luck.
