Over the years I've been to many absolutely lovely weddings. Big affairs at wonderful venues with free-flowing champagne, endless food and so on.
Now it's finally my turn to plan my wedding and I feel I owe everyone a wedding on the scale of those I have attended.
There's a part of me that quite likes the idea of booking somewhere gorgeous and treating all my friends and family but there's a much bigger part of me that balks at the idea of being the centre of attention. Even when we go out with friends I hate it when I accidentally say something that everyone listens to and I feel quite sick with shame when I think back on it. Friends have told me that it's wonderful to have everyone together though and I'll love I when the day finally comes.
Also, the mercenary part of me doesn't want to spend a fortune on a day I have no real desire to experience anyway.
But then I'd feel terrible having enjoyed so many people's hospitality over the years just to completely discout them when planning my wedding.
So AIBU to feel I owe people a big wedding?
