Hi All,
I am a newbie to the forum. I am hoping to find someone else in the same sort of situation as me... though I kind of doubt it. Basically we are planning to get married in May with no guests at a registry office. Haven't figured out the whole needing 2 witnesses thing yet though.
Haven't got much money to pay for the wedding so the no guest thing is kind of a bonus!
So far I have my dream dress... got Felicity (in diamond white) by Maggie Sottero off Ebay for £100. Am hoping to get it altered on Friday for approx £100. It's just the legnth that needs altering. Not planning on getting it dry cleaned as there are only dust marks at the bottom which are gonna get cut off anyway except for on the train which would just get dirty again anyway... is that skanky??!! lol
Anyway reason for no guests is...I do not want to be the centre of attention.. I'm weird like that!!.. but that is the main reason! It would be more expensive cos would need reception etc. It would be awkward who to invite and I don't want to offend people. Also my other halfs parents are seriously complicated and wouldn't want them to meet my parents!! Am planning not to tell anyone we are getting married until after the event.
The pros to this are.. cheaper.. no interference.. i feel happier and I get my dress lol!!
The cons are... no one to help me sort my dress out before the day.. am going to be relying on my other half. He has already seen me wearing the dress anyway so he can help me get ready. Lucky I am not supertitious really!!!
So anyway am I the only one here that is having a no guest wedding???

PS Where can I find a list of abbreviations for this site?? I have no idea what HIBS means ( or whatever it was!!) have worked out MOB means mother of bride though.
