So we have been talking more and more about getting married and starting our life together. I was wondering how all of you who are married made it through probably a very highly stressful day. Right now, I am at the point of just going to the courthouse, because I want it to be a day that we are both enjoying, not just me living it up and him in complete panic. But in the back of my mind I do want at least a little wedding where my dad can walk me down the isle, etc. He seems to think that this is impossible. I love him more than any thing and I am willing to do whatever he feels comfortable with, but I will be a little sad to not have somewhat of a traditional day. The whole "it's only one day of your life" idea gets really blurred in the mind of a 25 year old!! :) I just don't want to live with a secret regret for not having a wedding ceremony and reception.........ahhhhh! I am going back to school to get my pharamaceutical license, I hope that someday I can find a way to help people with SAD. It makes me so "sad" to think of all of the opportunities everyone could be missing out on. Thanks for all of your support on this site, you the only ones who seem to understand even a little bit of the stress our relationship is going through. It is difficult to always talk to him about it, because it makes him frustrated with himself and it turns a wonderful long distance chat into a stressful situation.

Liquor is the cure...
I'm ashamed to say it, but I was drunk at my wedding. I try not to use booze to help me through uncomfortable situations, but sometimes it's neccesary! I still have great memories of my wedding. The only downside is that my face was puffy from the liquor in all my pictures!
well..
I'm not married, yet, but I can really relate to the problem...
I found many blogs and many forums, and the support you can get online is amazing!

I think you should both just talk about this. See what he has to say,
maybe there are ways you guys can work it out, somehow.
Good luck
