OP here. PP doesn’t know what she is talking about. I never changed any story. We just got engaged and we were looking at venues and have two picked but plan to go with one of them and keep the other as a backup. I mentioned the one we picked would be perfect for the ceremony and reception, and he said he assumed we would be getting married in a church. He told me how everyone he knows all have church weddings and that it would mean a lot of his family. He was never on board and then changed his mind. I’m not sure where PP got that from. We have not officially booked the venue yet but we plan to after looking at the other option. We are 98% sure we will be going with our first option. Both are overlooking the lake but we want our first option the most. |
You said: "We have[u] a very beautiful wedding venue that overlooks the river in our city and that would be an amazing place to exchange vows and have a reception. This seems more practical to me." That implies you booked it. Not that you were "thinking" about it. What exactly do you have? |
Did you…not have this conversation before jumping to the conclusion that you’d practically have to convert or lie about your whole faith ust to get married to him? For such a mild and easily solvable concern of his, your OP seems like an overreaction. Unless….there is more to it than he just thinks it’s “weird” to get married in a reception venue? |
It’s like op ran here mid conversation with fiance to post, then went back to finish the conversation and come to a simple conclusion. |
He's right though. It's tacky to get married at the reception venue. |
This |
No, the best solution is to end it. |
Considering many people also host their reception at the church, you think that is tacky too? You must have two separate venues? Silly. |
Many people do this? |
You still can’t read. |
Nope. You’re making things up again. There is no “should be” or “want to be” Catholic. At least one person MUST be. Not sure why you keep saying someone “should be” when that is factually wrong and you’ve been told by multiple PPs that you’re wrong. Saying you’ll raise your kids Catholic, practicing, and being a religious Catholic is completely irrelevant if at least one person isn’t Catholic. There’s no should about it. |
I guess if one family is Catholic that is supposed to supercede everything else. Including the wishes of the couple actually getting married. Maybe OP should run... if her future in laws might be inserting their beliefs and wishes into the marriage and her fiance has no back bone. |
Why would parents who are Catholic have a non Catholic child they want to get married at their church? Your point makes zero sense. It's clear you're confused and don't know how any of this works. |
Op is a troll. She has changed her story. The title said the fiancé wanted a church wedding. Then no, just didn't want to get married at the reception venue. Then somehow there were 11 pages of people arguing about the intricacies of having a Catholic wedding which the fiancé doesn't even really care about because he's actually non religious. Except for he also wants to appease his Catholic family, but then OP comes back again to say no, he doesn't really care anyway. Just, all over the place. |
