What should I do about my wedding blues?

Q. I've been in a relationship with my boyfriend for almost 6 years, and the marriage talked has came up. I want to have a wedding ceremony (what girl doesn't?). He rather just go to the court of justice. I'm willing to do that but I still want my wedding. The problem is he doesn't have many friends, more of associates. So I already know who my maid of honor will be but he doesn't have a best man. He's worried about that and I feel that's the reason he doesn't want to have the ceremony. How should I address this? Thanks!

A. If that's the reason, I think you should come up with some other options if you really LOVE him. I wouldn't want my significant other to feel bad on our big day. How about a destination wedding with just the two of you? You still get to wear a cute dress and later on you can come back and have a party with your families & friends.

How much did you spend on your wedding? Is this considered too much?
Q. My parents are paying for my wedding and they plan to spend at least 350,000 to give me that big, fairytale, wedding. The problem is I want something small, simple, and classy.

A. I spent around $9,000 (not including honeymoon).

350,000 is A LOT. I'm all for people having big weddings if that's their dream and they afford it, but 350,000 is way over the top in my opinion.

If the big fairytale wedding isn't what you want, sit down with your parents and tell them that. Let them know that you really appreciate that they're willing to do that for you, but you'd like something more low key. Hopefully they'll be understanding.

Is it a must to invite the spouse of a co worker to a wedding even when you have never met them?
Q. You work with someone and you see them everyday and wish to invite them to your wedding. Problem is money and space at the wedding. I would perfer not to invite the spouse, but do not wish to be rude.
What if you invited a group of girls from the office, on a posted invitation. Must you include the spouses then?

A. I totally understand the feeling, but I think I read in Dear Abby that you have to; I just checked, Emily Post says the same thing. The idea is a couple is a "set," you can't invite one without the other.
