Sorry about that! We are having a problem with members replying to old timelines which deletes the data that was recently entered. I thought we had everything cleaned up but it looks like we did not notice you had been deleted. I added you back in.

How is everyone going about the the whole planning a wedding with no definate date? I'm just wondering.

We are just doing a quick cheapish civil courthouse legal thing, doing AOS then saving up to maybe 18months later have a 'real' wedding celebration when my family should be able to visit from scotland too. Still getting a nice new dress for courthouse thing (red velvet) and still gonna make as much of a fuss as possible of course. It's not exactly how I pictured my dream wedding but I try to look on the bright side.....eventually I'll have had 2 and both to same man!

[Jeraly 4]

Eep! Why has our thread gone all screwy?!

*breathes again*

Ok - it was in outline display mode and I freaked out... that was *horrible*

I like the idea of two "weddings" to the same man! And it's lovely that you'll get two weddings out of this! We'd thought we would have a big ceremony here (Maine,USA) so that my family could be involved, and the travellers in his family who want to visit the US could be involved too. Then we are going to have another wedding reception in the UK, for all the people who couldn't make it/afford to come to our US wedding. After our engagement on 7/07/07, we quickly started our wedding planning, and without realizing the possible setbacks our fiance visa could cause us, we secured a wedding ceremony and reception hall, for a non-refundable $2000 dollars. Brilliant. Fortunately for us, the people who own the hall are very understanding about our situation, so we now have a "sliding" date for our reservation. I just don't know how understanding they'll be if our fiance visa becomes one of the horror stories i've been reading about, and takes us YEARS to get. I'm not sure what led me to believe that this fiance visa process was a simple process! I'm certainly set straight now though, and expecting the worst (in hopes the USCIS will exceed my expectations).

I am endlessly impressed by how smoothly everyone here deals with this whole process... You're taking it in stride, and I only hope i can follow your example. As they say- a watched pot never boils, and up to this point i don't even have a pot to watch (NOA1 hasn't arrived yet)...

Ok this is a subject very dear to my heart as we booked our wedding without realising the nightmare that the visa process can be! We set our date for 11th Feb (it's in between our birthdays, mine on the 16th when I will be 26 and his on the 6th when he will be 25) because we would be the same age when we got married which seemed cool, we have a wedding planner, I have bought my dress, we have invitations - the works. Once we found out I might not get the visa in time we decided we were still going to go ahead with the wedding regardless - esp as my family have now booked plane tickets!!

So here's the plan:

-We get married in AZ on 11th Feb 2008

-If we don't get the visa in time, we cancel the process, get married then I come home and apply for spousal visa

-If we do then everything is fine

-Jeremy's family don't have very much money so we are having the wedding in the US

-We are having a UK wedding evening reception with everyone who can't make it

-We keep hoping and praying everything will be ok

I can't promise to be a wealth of knowledge but I *am* planning a wedding actively but I have a fixed date in mind so if anyone has any questions...

Scott and I have decided to get married in Vegas. We'll fly there 10-14 days after I arrive (hopefully in January) and do the whole "Vegas" thing. We're doing it at the Little White Wedding Chapel with an Elvis impersonator - the whole works.

His Mother and Brother will be coming too and my Mum is flying in from the UK - that will be the entire wedding party. The families are staying for 5 days and Scott and I will stay for 10 days, having a honeymoon alone.

Doing it this way means that we don't have to book things ahead and worry about having to cancel them. We've decided not to have another wedding afterwards, we're just going to make the Vegas one as memorable as possible!!!

Thank you Bill!

I understand you didn't notice me, it's becose I dont write mach posts. Actually my english is not so good, bat I read all yours and I am here every day.

I wish you all luck!

[StillThePrettiest 3]

English Muffin, your situation sounds quite similar to mine... the one thing that's an advantage about having to marry in the US is that my fiance's parents will be able to be there; they're older than mine so wouldn't have been able to make the trek from the US to Aus, but mine are quite happy to do the reverse... we're not going to Vegas, but also doing something VERY small and simple (I've been actively against having a big wedding all my life, so THAT's convenient ) - and the wedding party will be the four parents, and my fiance's son (who's about to turn 16). We'll have the big meet-everyong party in Aus before we leave, then the simple wedding and maybe a lunch or dinner with the seven of us on the day - and that will be that

not even planning a honeymoon at this stage... maybe later

transatlantic, don't worry about your English - it's not perfect, but we understand you fine

and forums like this are a great place to practise...

English Muffin - you are very brave!!

StillThePrettiest - I always used to want a big white wedding but changed my mind - now I am having everything I want but how I want it, not fulfilling some kind of stereotype - it's going to be in a woodland with a gorgeous backdrop, a beautiful dress and the people I care most about

Wedding Venue

I wish I could show you all the dress but I can't find it online anymore

Transatlantic - I agree with what StillThePrettiest said

[Jeraly 4]

Hey I found this in the UK forum:

http://www.editgrid.com/

I don't know if anyone who is keeping on top of our progress would like to be in charge of it or check it out?! It might work out more manageable than updating here...?

Let me know what you think anyway

Jeraly <-------- (too lazy to check it out herself - is in charge of maps!)

[StillThePrettiest 3]

I'd love to look after something like that but I am SO BAD at spreadsheets... I might have a muck about with it and see what I can do

My wedding(s) are not gonna be big either. My dream wedding has always been small.....just preferably with my family and close friends there and in a nice outdoor setting followed by a cosy meal and a few drinks.

My first legal courthouse thing is gonna be me, nick, nicks parents, nicks bro as his witness (best man idea), nicks eldest sister as my witness (maid of honor type thing) and thats it! Not even an official photographer just a few nice snaps by friends/family and my camera (i'm a professional photographer myself and yes i do weddings) on my tripod on a timer. Getting my red velvet dress which if anyone is interested (nicks mammy, no peeking!!) it's fromdark angel clothing and it's the angel dress

second wedding maybe 18months later will be the outdoor thing hopefully with just nicks family again and my parents and brother (this is where it gets interesting...I have an american, my brother is dating a south african). Might even recycle the dress but add a bouquet and a fancier hairdo.
