That is a great idea :) (having a real wedding on the same day a year later )

:thumbs: That's my only idea for the wedding so far besides the dress styles and colors I want for me and the bride's maids haha Now that we are all talking about it, I can't wait to get home and start looking at things again online :)

I actually HATE dancing, but Tom loves to dance, and my parents have actually taken ballroom dancing lessons since I was 10 years old or so LOL... so they'd all kill me if I said no dancing. (Also, I love music, and it's all going to be 50's stuff, which is - in my opinion - more fun to dance to anyway!)

So instead, I'm going to take some dance lessons (with Tom) when I get down to FL, so hopefully I'll feel a bit less awkward.

My space isn't big enough to dance in really, so I think we're going to have some board games/cards at the tables and maybe do a pub quiz type thing. We're pretty much skipping all the traditional stuff and are trying to make it our own.

I just got this forwarded email from my congressman's office:

"The I129F petition was approved today 7/31/12. An approval notice will be mailed to the petitioner's address of record and the I129F petition will be sent overnight to the National Visa Center for processing."

However, there's no update on the USCIS website. Not sure what to think of it. Also, are they really gonna overnight it? When should I start calling NVC for that number thing?

Thank you guys.

Thanks. I've been a little stressed today about the wedding being very non-traditional since my family is pretty traditional, but in the end, it's my wedding. I've done as much accommodating as I can with the date, and I'll have to do what I can with the rest. With the visa process and paying for the AOS immediately afterwards, I've got enough to stress about :)

Exactly, there's enough to stress about. I think you can only accommodate so much, but I'm sure if you are happy and having fun that everybody else will be as well. :D
