Thanks. I talked to my Mom real briefly and she gave me some ideas about a ring (which I realized a ring is a bit less expensive than I thought) and she seemed okay with the idea of a DW. My older sister really liked the idea, but not so crazy about us not inviting kids. My twins sister has a four year old and three infant triplets and my older sister has a three year old. I love them all with all I have, but I think for a weekend I can be a bit selfish and say "No" to kids. They always take center stage and it's much less stressful with them not around. My GF is not so great under stressful situations. So that's a load off my mind. Well I thinks that's all for now.

Thanks guys. I feel all warm and fuzzy now! Hope to chat with some of you later on.

My Girlfriend and I are pretty serious... I haven't officially proposed to her yet(still saving for a nice ring) but her idea is to have a DW and I like the idea the more I think about it. So just looking around and it seems like a great time for the guests and the couple. Any great tidbits of advice are welcome. We are thinking of a small wedding with just a handful of guests and having a large informal BBQ for extended family and friends when we get back from the Honeymoon or between the Wedding and the Honeymoon. Anyway, hope to swap ideas. I have been to a ton of weddings (for work) and like a lot of different versions of the ceremony and reception. But for a long time I've always envisioned an informal reception and small private wedding. I'm pretty laid back and my girlfriend's idea is to have perfect wedding and that doesn't involve much fuss and concentrate on the things she cares about. Good food, romance and the smell of the surf, flip flops that imprint "Just Married" in the sand.
