A wedding is for joining families together - kids, elderly in wheelchairs, mentally ill, etc. Crying during your vows - that's life - lots of stuff going on at once - that's the beauty of it. The best laid plans of mice and men. . .
15:43 here. Maybe you saw your wedding as joining two families but I didn't see mine that way. I saw it (and so does the government and church) as joining my husband and I together. It was all about celebrating our joining, not our respective familes. We also didn't invite my mentallly ill brother who would have created a spectacle. DH was especially glad not to have two of his nephews there. My South American ILs applauded our choice not to have kids there, especially those two nephews.
