My sister has decided not to have anyone other than two friends (to act as witnesses) at her actual wedding ceremony. She will then have a fake wedding ceremony later the same day, which family and friends are invited to.
I'm totally baffled by this- I was expecting to be at her actual wedding and share in her joy as she gets married. Our parents especially feel hurt at not being invited to the real wedding. I just can't understand why she wants to do it this way.
The reason she gives is cost- she doesn't want to spend extra on a big room at the registry office, and their (very cheap) venue doesn't have a licence so they can't have a real wedding there. But I don't buy it- her and her fiancé eat out several nights a week- they can afford a bit more money for a full registry office wedding.
I'm gutted that I won't see her get married but she clearly doesn't understand why I have an issue with this.
Is it me?
