Well, when I say small wedding, I mean SMALL ... I mean 13 people. I was only planning on having my parents, his parents, grandmas, siblings and my aunt and uncle. That's it. We're going to have it in a house, where we stand at the "alter", say our vows, then just have a nice sit down dinner (still at the house)... No big reception, very very little cost and very little hype around it. Some people might ask why I'd want to do it htat way seeing as its one of the biggest days of my life and "every girl dreams of a nice big wedding" but honestly, I only want my family there. She IS a close friend, although it's not like we've been lifelong friends; our friendship resulted from both of us being pregnant at the same time and having that in common. We've only been close friends for about 7 months.
There wasn't going to be a wedding party at all. My son was going to be the ring bearer, and I wasn't really planning on having anyone stand with me. It's not a matter of not wanting HER to be my maid of honour, it's a matter of not wanting a maid of honour period... If I WERE to have a wedding party, she would be my maid of honour hands down, but I wasn't planning on it. i've backed myself in a corner and said yes, because she was so excited about it and i felt bad, but now I'm wishing I wouldve just been firm in telling her my plans.
