When you are engaged to someone whose family lives two thousand miles away, you face interesting challenges when trying to plan a wedding. Part of you, the bride, wants to have you wedding in the area in which you grew up, or someplace that has special meaning to you, or maybe you just want your wedding close to your home for the sake of your sanity. But what happens once you have that ring on your finger and those ever so important discussion begin? While there is part of me that is totally content on having my wedding here in the Northwest, part of me feels bad about my fiance's family and friends being so far away and even worse at the thought that most of them will not be able to make it out here to Seattle.
This is a tough situation. We have discussed having our wedding "in the middle" i.e. Denver, but then both families would have to travel and everyone will be at an inconvenience. For now, our wedding will be in Seattle, but even with that decision made, the guilt does not go away.
