Have name changed because, well, this is just a tentative thing at the moment.
Been with DP for 18 years, since we were 18 in fact. We still really like each other and now have 3 DCs
We've never wanted to get married, there's no need and I'd rather spend the money on a new kitchen tbh! But then, we went to make a will and it seems if we are unmarried and we were to die, then our children could lose a massive amount of their inheritance to the taxman. There is a complicated way around this which involves setting up trusts or something, but it seems easier to get married. So...
Of course, we could just go and get married on our own and would just need witnesses. Who? It would be tricky to choose any of our friends over others, same with relatives. We could find strangers on the day?
But then I think, well, we do like hosting parties, but would HATE to be centre of attention. And when I mention it to people they say things like, "it would be a shame not to have a little party..."
So I start thinking about a small do for 15 or so. Then the guest list grows... then it shrinks because I can't bear the thought of a proper wedding.
GAH!
So help me with some cool ideas for small, personal INFORMAL weddings.
We'd need a dance floor so registry office and meal isn't quite right.
TIA
