Hi everyone!
Quick question...my boyfriend and I are hosting a "Celebration of Love" dinner party. We've sent out invitations, have a venue, have a caterer, live band, and even hired a magician : ) I've ordered centerpieces, party favours, etc. (which the planning process because of the smaller guest count has been such fun and I have enjoyed it so much); basically it will feel like a reception party. He has been married before and myself, I just do not want the pressure of a big, large wedding with a traditional ceremony, etc. - it just does not feel like me. We both do not want to have a ceremony or legally marry but want to throw a party to acknowledge our love (we have been together for 6 years) and share with those closest to us - basically just have some great food, lots of drinks, and dance the night away. Is this odd? How would you feel attending something like this? We have a small guest count, 25 people, and I've been able to communicate this with everyone so everyone seems to just be happy for us which is nice but I think people are still a little confused if they can call this a "wedding" or not. This is exactly how we want to do things so trying to stay true to ourselves and not listen too much to outside opinions but I am just curious if this seems weird or not? lol Appreciate feedback and kind words : )
