[quote=Anonymous]I'm one of the many PPs supporting nephew. Here's my thought on weddings:

Many, many people get married in courthouses or with their pastor and a witness. THAT IS IT. it does not lessen their commitment, the celebration of their union, or their marriage. Because you know what? Your vows are between YOU and your PARTNER. See the two things capitalized? Those are actually the only two necessary people present at ANY wedding. Throw in a representative for the holy body if it is necessary for your religion.

Want to get married in front of G-d? Take your loved one and head to a forest. Your vows and commitment are equal to being in the biggest and fanciest church in town, in front of 200 of your "closest" friends (hyphens intentional - no one has 200 people necessary in their life that their vows will crumble without them).

OP, you're an older bride. You've waited, which puts extra emphasis on this day FOR YOU. BUT GET OVER IT. you'll still be married the following Tuesday when your nephew can feel excited for you and understand that commitment is not a one day event.
