I am in a quandary as to which wedding to book… Please can you help?
Both are destination weddings. DP and I are not the same nationality. Both choices are 5 star hotels with excellent wine and food. I will not mention cost of each, as this is not the deciding factor. Second time round for both of us.
WEDDING A
Best way to describe it would be a sophisticated beach wedding. Absolutely magical setting, in a country neither of us are from. But my DParents live locally. This would likely be the smaller of the two choices, perhaps 20 guests as I am not sure if DPs friends and family would travel. It would have to be in September of this year, which leaves me with 4 months to plan it. Only, I am leaving on an extended work trip tomorrow that will likely only end a week or two before the proposed date. I am not sure that my parents would travel to the other destination, as they are old and not keen on traveling much. If this option gets chosen, I believe we would have to have a registry wedding int he country he is from for my residential status. This is not a deterrent, just another thing
WEDDING B
Beautiful city location, and I have picked a time when it’s at its best, in March of next year. I would estimate the guest list to be around 50. It is in the country that DP is from, but not where we live. I have many friends in the country too as I have tried very hard to integrate and settle. However, I am not sure if my DParents would make the journey. As with most spring weddings, the weather is not guaranteed, but I would have more time to plan.
I cannot decide but need to as deposits are needed shortly.
Any wise insights welcome…
