[quote=Anonymous]We got married here in Virginia out in the mountains, and it was a "destination wedding" for most of my family who are from the NY tri-state area.  We arranged for a lovely place that was about $250/night, plus cabins that were around $150/night, and at first I was a little hurt when some of my relatives thought even that was too pricey.  (Only b/c I had gone to their weddings at a MUCH higher price point.)  I was hurt because I thought our whole weekend together would be less of a "close family time" because we weren't all staying together.

But I quickly got over it.  And I honestly wouldn't have noticed a difference.  I only had 70 guests, but once the weekend was in full swing, I never noticed where anyone was aside from my DH - it was a whirlwind.  So it made no difference to our enjoyment or specialness to have them stay farther away, and I am embarrassed at my initial reaction to their rejection of my housing recommendations.

I hope your bride will feel the same and be as gracious.[/quote]
