DSis just told my DM that she wants to get married next year on that day that is also my DM's wedding anniversary. My DM and DD will celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary next year, and were thinking of having a simple ceremony and inviting their friends and family for a simple reception at home.
A bit of background. My Dsis is 48, this would be her second marriage, also second marriage for her DP. They have lived together for 10+ years, and have two children. According to my DSis, she chose that specific day for the wedding as it is a very special date for them (but she didn't tell us why it is so special, and I don't mind not knowing, actually).
Maybe I'm too practical, and not very romantic, but why can't DSis pick a different date? My DM has told me that she (DM) doesn't want to do a combined ceremony - they have different sets of friends, as you can imagine. Also, it's not to save money for the reception, as my DSis is quite wealthy. I have to say that it seems quite selfish to me to pick the same day as my DM's wedding anniversary.
Well, what do you think?
