They didn't come to our wedding many years earlier and we didn't make a big deal about it. We even told her as soon as she announced the date that if she could change it great but otherwise we already have plans that weekend.

After planning for Bfest I had a set of friends end up picking Bfest weekend for a wedding... I was on the fence and was actually planning on not going to attend the wedding... Amy convinced me to just go to Bfest and they would understand. According to txt's to Amy, verifying if I was going or not, they are fine with it and understand, so I guess it's good. Amy is still going and may take her father with her.

That's why I had a court house wedding and we only invited my husband's parents. The lack of gifts and money sucked, but geez what a waste of money a big wedding is lol

I had the expensive wedding with my 1st wife but the father in-law paid foe it. They were very traditional.
2nd and current wife was all free. We won a wedding on the radio complete with honeymoon in Vegas!

It doesn't have to be pristine, a lot of our cars aren't! Internet pics can be deceiving!
And no apologies necessary
