  2. We have had sooo many issues because we chose to do it down south! First my mother refused to come - it was too expensive. She eventually came/saw the light, ie. its her daughter's wedding and she can/should be there. Then my best friend, MOH said she didn't want to spend the money - eventually she came around as well. My father is an ongoing issue. It has been so stressful and I have cried so much! FI actually threw a plate against a wall at one point (totally out of character). As it stands, our parents and close friends are coming (about 30 people) but my sister and my brothers still refuse to come (it is not about money with any of them, it is a matter of principle - how can she have a wedding where it is inconvenient for us to attend??!).

     

    I have really come to the point where I don't care. It is about FI and I, and those who want to be there, really WANT to be there will come. I couldn't do it without my parents, but since they have come around, I don't care about anyone else. But this has been so stressful and upsetting - I really, REALLY feel for you. You have to decide what is most important to you - and what you are willing to put up to get it. You have to realize that this is YOUR wedding. It is about FI and you. I really, REALLY hope things work out for you!!!

  3. I stayed at the Excellence last year, and loved it so much that we are going back for our honeymoon :) We would have done the wedding there, but there were a number of family members with young children and we did not want to specifically exclude them. But honestly, it is a beautiful resort, and the service was phenomenal. The only thing I would mention is that you can't really swim in the ocean there! They have riptide warnings almost everyday (in fact several people died there a couple of years ago because of the tides). When we were there the lifeguards blew whistles everytime someone went out over their knees. But the pool is so great, it really didn't bother us - but it's something to keep in mind.
