Hey everyone. I am getting more and more conflicting thoughts in my head about planning my wedding. My Fiancé is Greek, from the Island of Corfu and I’ve dreamed of having my wedding there for the last year and a half. We almost had the 4th June (this year) booked but COVID happened. Now we are back into planning mode after a year’s pause and I’ve found out today that none of my extended family will travel to Corfu next year because of COVID. So it feels sort of pointless getting married there if they can’t be there with me.
On the flip side, if we were to have a UK wedding, then some of his family will struggle to get here. And it’s not our beautiful island. I’m so torn with what to do. I know I can have a celebration back home at one of the beautiful weddings but seeing the venues pictures with brides and grooms with all their close friends and family around them also looks amazing.
Has anyone else been in these shoes, (COVID or no COVID) and what did you do? Or what would you do if you were in my shoes? Pros and cons lists for what’s most important and work out where the compromises can fit in?
Thanks
