My wedding was cancelled due to covid. We have rescheduled, but most likely have to reschedule again. However the thought of having a big wedding is not something that makes me happy anymore.I get upset thinking about it. We have had a number "dramas" about why "we did not invite so and so partner", this coming from my partners side. As well as this we had invited 70 + people to the wedding, I say 20 of those people on OH side I don't know well or at all . I just don't know why I would get married in front of strangers, and some of these are cheeky enough to ask why their son or girlfriend isn't invited.
My partner is agreement that we should elope, sack the whole wedding off just me him and the kids. Then after just have a smaller gathering as a celebration. But we are not telling mine or his family or friends to save issues.
I have already got the bridesmaids dresses. But they are the second lot of bridesmaids dresses I have purchased as my MOH made such a fuss about the dresses. Stupidly I changed them for her. 3 out of the 6 bridemaids where sent their dresses so they could try then on at home as they live in different cities. But now I would like the dresses back as they cost a lot of money, and I have lost my job due to covid and I'm also at uni. I can still send these dresses back to the shop.
Right so now I will stop waffling on. What can I say to these ladies to get the dresses back without telling them we are eloping?
