im cancelling my wedding.....

I'm never sure what to expect when I open these sort of threads, but I was very happy to read:

I have no idea how to help with the plan to run away but good luck changing your plans Are you going to bring the day forward?

Total agreement with BV?

Thats lovely to hear. I think it's so easy to get caught up in all the rigmarole (sp!) that goes with planning a wedding. I guess the great thing now is that you can do whatever you want and make it reflect your personalities/situation!

Firstly, is it exactly what you want to do? Are you sure you want to elope? Will you regret not sharing your day with your friends and family...

Secondly, I've no idea how to cancel the wedding, but I guess you'd start with contacting all the suppliers and places you've booked. You'll probably lose deposits, but never mind.

Then, just decide where you do want to marry and just go and do it!!

Best of luck x

Good luck and well done on being so brave!

You're not cancelling your wedding then, you're just changing it! Nothing wrong with eloping if thats what you both want and is for the best! There's a few OM's who did this, some who's families knew, some who didn't and quite honestly I'm a bit jealous of anyone who has the guts to do this!!

Hope all goes well, you should still stick around on hitched!!

Aw its all very romantic! Sounds lovely! First things first, sort your new venue.

I eloped with H off to Gretna, it was great and we wouldn't have had it any other way. I would start going through who you have booked and cancel them, if you've paid deposits then you may lose them. As for family, I would check with them about eloping as you don't want to inadvertently hurt them. For H and I, it was easy as his and my parents don't get on.

Best of luck to you x
