Save the Dates - to be dispatched imminently!

PhoenixAngelic, 13 February, 2012 at 12:22 Posted on Planning 0 6

Eeek! ?

We've kept everything very low key to date with a just a few people knowing the date etc. But today we will be posting (and delivering overnight) our Save the Date cards. I realised last night just how nervous I am about this. Not because I'm doubting 'us' but because this is the moment where I open myself up to the comments: 'oooh third time lucky' or 'well you'll be wanting to do it low-key' or 'I'm surprised you're brave enough to do it again' or, worse still, '(groan) here we go again'.

I'm so hoping that people won't feel like that. I didn't choose this path for my life to follow - widowed once and divorced the second time (having been abandoned after just 3 months).

We have battled hard to get to where we are and have shown great commitment to each other already. We know this is the right thing for us. I just want other people to know it too. Possibly just the first bit of pre-wedding nerves kicking in but I don't want anything to take the sparkle off this ...

Perhaps our quirkly Save the Dates will help. They're cunningly disguised as valentines cards! Red envelopes with a big gold question mark on the back!

    Don't let anyone take the glitter off for you. Everyone deserves to be happy and if you are lucky enough to have found love for the third time....good on you!

    I am getting married in August for the 2nd time after being married for over 28 years the 1st time then finding he was seeing someone else! I will be my H2B's third wife. We are so happy I feel blessed every day that we have found each other and can't wait for our wedding day.

    Love your idea with the disguised save the date cards! Good luck to you x

    I think it is wonderful that you are getting married again! I'm sure everyone will be so excited for you- If they aren't, then they aren't very good friends are they?

    Go grab that happiness!

    Who cares what anyone else thinks?! You've obviously been through a lot and after that I would imagine it's hard to be close to someone else again. The fact that you have managed it shows a brave and strong person so stuff anyone who says otherwise!

    I know how you feel! I have been married before and I too am worried about comments like this off certain people, but as has been said here before everyone deserves to be happy, which is what I will say if I hear any comments! its nobody elses business what has happened your previous lives. Ive also noticed its usually people that shouldnt be commenting on others lives when they re own is something to be desired themselves! stones and glass houses comes to mind! Hope it works out for you! x

    I'm sure people won't be like that if they care for you, not like it's that unusual these days. Loving the valentine idea
