Re: Uuuugh.

can't you invite them to the paper singing and then have a little reunion or something?

that could be a compromise

Re: Uuuugh.

I don't know. Do paper signings usually take place in a church with vows while you're wearing a white dress? Because I think that's the only way I could swing that.

Also we call the reunion a "reception."

vov up to you then

Don't quote me on this but I think you can make a nice show of the signing of the paper-- when my parents got legally married my mom was wearing a nice evening white dress and there were the closest family members there to cheer (not just witness)and then they made a celebration at a restaurant. I'm pretty sure there are vows involved too. I think legal marriage services* allow people to get creative about them even if you just go to an office or something.

*english really isn't my first language, I don't know the right terms for this, sorry.

I'm not saying this is universal pressure, just a sort of pressure American girls my age get put under.

Also, saying your parents getting "legally married" makes it sound like they're older? It's a little bit different at that point.

You could have a 'court room wedding' - which basically skips a lot of the wedding pomp, but still can have a white dress and other little [and very easy to put up/take down] fixtures.

Or you could do a metaphorical 'Screw you, this is what we're doing' and let the cards fall where they may. That's what my ex-fiance and I did [the engagement fell apart do to other reasons.]

I've known lots of people who had very nice non-religious wedding ceremonies with lots of guests.

So do it at the city hall, in a nice white dress, and have a reception afterward with photo ops and cake and whatnot. You're not actually obliged to 'please' your family just because they've been 'nice' - if they *are* actually nice, they'll understand and celebrate your day.

If they're not, well - they'll come around eventually. Don't make yourself miserable and broke to please other people.
