[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]June is already pushing it if the priority is having kids. I'd stay out of it and make it very clear I'm fine with anything they decide in terms of timeline, wedding size, guest list. Anyone reasonable would understand the time crunch aspect. And if your overseas child doesn't come, then they don't. [/quote]

This. If you really want to influence the participation of the overseas kid, pay for their ticket, don’t ask the couple in their 40s to postpone the wedding…[/quote]

It also might be that the timing just doesn't work out if they are active duty- it is what it is.

I think June is plenty of notice FWIW with the caveat that some people may have summer plans already (for example, we have a big vacation scheduled for immediately after school gets out), and I wouldn't expect anyone to change anything to attend a wedding.[/quote]

I agree with that, OP just seems fixated on what she can do to delay one child’s wedding instead of assist another child’s participation, which makes no sense because the first child may equally have plans for the following summer.[/quote]
