[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My Fiance and I got engaged June 2020. Given 2020 and 2021 we put off having a wedding until 2022.

My fiance all of a sudden decided she doesn't want a wedding anymore and would rather elope. Her reasoning is we would save a lot of money and wouldnt have to wait 2 years. [b]She also has a really small family and they are not that close.

I'm from a traditional family and this absolutely would not fly. We've discussed it and she refuses to compromise. I understand from her perspective she's not extremely close with her family, so a wedding isn't a big deal, but for me, it would be a huge sign of disrespect to my family.[/quote]

They are not that close....according to whom?  You?  Not for you to decide.  If that's what she says/thinks, that's different.  I'm very close to my (rather small) family, but also didn't value a big wedding.

What is your compromise?  It's not really binary, either we have a big wedding in 2022 or we elope next week.  Find a middle ground like a small family only wedding this summer.[/quote]
