What would you guys do? How would you react? What a bummer! We were initially planning late October 2010 because I wanted an October wedding. Also, FI's youngest sibling would still be 12 and get child rates at resorts. However, we decided to push it back to April 2011 to give everyone more time to save (especially his family, we won't even go there, they aren't very supportive of our DW decision, but if we get married in the states they would be asked to travel anyway). However, it turned out clever because we want to get married on our 8 year anniversary, April 21 2011. BE CAREFUL with fall.. make sure you plan around hurricane season! Other than that, if you can wait, I guess push it back once as we did so they have less to gripe about?
