[quote=Anonymous]Maybe your fiancé did it for someone else (like his mother) not for you. My situation is not like yours, but I'll never forget the very moment I realized that weddings are more for family than the couple. I don't mean as an obligation to your families, but they're the ones who are celebrating your union and it's more about their feelings about it - does that make sense? For me, it really was just a practical matter - I wanted legal protection should anything happen to either of us - and would have been happy eloping. We almost did while we were on vacation but it was too inconvenient. When I later told some of my family, I was shocked by how upset they were and embarrassed to have felt so selfish about something they wanted to share. I'm not saying that you're being selfish, just something to think about with your feelings vis a vis everyone else's. [/quote]
