My fiancee and I are starting to plan what we are going to do for a wedding. Neither want to have a wedding within 500 miles of where we are. Neither of us are religious. We also don't want a big wedding. Her mom and my mom would invite everyone they know. There just isn't any controling that. Also, her parents believe we should have to pay for it entirely ourselves. My mom can't afford to pay for anything. I just started my career in May so I don't make a lot of money. My fiancee will just be graduating from NCSU this coming May. So basically we don't have much money at all.
We have pretty much decided we want to head to Vegas for our wedding and honeymoon. We aren't running off without telling people. We are looking to do this next summer or fall.
We like this idea because our closest friends have already said they would make every effort to come. My mom would come and so would her parents and sister.
That would mean probably 10 people max at the ceremony. That is exactly what we want. We plan to throw a party for all our friends that can't make it either before we leave or after we get back.
So now onto the question. Is it then rude to start a gift registry knowing that most people won't be coming to the wedding and you planned it that way?
It isn't that I don't like the people, it is just the fact we don't want a big wedding so this helps to prevent hurting someone's feelings when they aren't invited.
I personally think it is a no go on the registry but I don't know too much about weddings.
