Normally I'd agree but she doesn't even want a wedding. She's pushing for us to elope and get married at a registry office. Honestly our wedding is for other people.
Don't believe her - in a nice way that is.
Some women will say this because of fear, others because of budget issues, some because of the stress of organisation. But the big day is all about her. Every girl dreams about the big day. The walking down the isle, the dress, the dress, the dress - did i mention the dress?
And yes - it will be for other people. For the others - its all about the reception. The celebration, the food, entertainment, the dancing and the party atmosphere.
Weddings are a statement. Whether it's the vintage cars or the Lamborghini, the traditional church or the back drop of Sydney harbor at Mrs Maquarie's Chair, the bridal party's entrance in a low key introduction at the small country reception or the entrance to the beat of the Lebanese drummers in full costume. Nearly everything on the day makes a statement.
Maybe she has a very valid point.... Elope - its so much easier and stress free
