Our wedding was only family and a few close old friends at a beautiful church in Rome (about 15 people in total); it meant that everybody had to travel (mine from USA, my OH's family from Ireland), and believe me -- I never wanted a huge wedding anyway! We spent about 5,000 euros in total for reception and hotels, and then another 5,000 on our honeymoon to Australia (3 weeks). We didn't have to do a pre-marriage course, as our priest at the local church 'signed us off', e.g. I told him I wasn't interested and would probably spend the time arguing with the priest (one of my subjects at university had been early church (not bible studies), and when I was confirmed at age 26+, my confirmation class was very academic and we argued history, not biblical theology)....the Church of Ireland was very welcoming regarding christening, but not so, Roman Catholic, e.g. my husband can take communion in protestant church, but I cannot take it in RC church (some priests will allow, but not the priest at my FIL's funeral mass a few years ago and it was somewhat embarrassing to have to sit in the pew whilst everybody else went up) and tbh, it isn't fair to LO if his mummy can't even take communion if he goes to mass....growl.
OH had LO last night and although I did wake up around 6am, it was wonderful to actually GO BACK TO SLEEP, and I did until 10am, then went and got my hair cut....
hope all others are well!
bye!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
