What we want: Outdoor wedding. Ideally, outdoor reception too. In the summer of 2010 so I have time to save up money after I am done with grad school. Sparkly Indian clothes. Open bar. A party with lots of music and dancing and good food, where we're married at the end.
What F's family is used to: A wedding in a banquet hall. A much shorter engagement. No drinks. Sparkly Indian clothes. Massive gold jewelry armor plating. Around 500 people, and that would be on the small side. A party with lots of music and dancing and good food, where we're married at the end.
What my extended family is used to: A wedding where I wear a white dress and pearls. Less than 200 people. Open bar. A bit o' Jesus. A party with lots of music and dancing and good food, where we're married at the end. But they are used to the music being in English.
At least we agree on something.
(I should point out that my parents are in the awesome "whatever makes you happy" camp. I'm just saying that I'm going to have to explain all the unfamiliar traditions to everybody.)
