Setting the date
|
|
|
My fiance and I want to get married some time next year. (My second, his first.) We want to include my daughter in the ceremony. She's 4, will be 5 next August. My dream is to get married in the Winter at night. (Maybe because my first one was in the summer in the morning and that didn't work...) My question involves setting a good date. My daughter will start Kindergarten next August. I don't want to interfere with school and don't want to inconvenience my parents too much since they will be keeping her while we go on our honeymoon. If we get married in December, we have the holidays to deal with and we certainly want to spend Christmas together as a family. Any suggestions on what would be a good time? We are going to have a very small wedding, just family, but definitely want a "real" honeymoon. Thanks!!

Why don't you find out when Winter break is for your daughter's school? Most schools give a week off in February and that's a great time for a honeymoon if you are going to the Caribbean.

That's a good idea. We don't have Winter Break here in Texas, but we do have a week where the kids get out for several days for the stock show and rodeo. That might be a good time. I almost think we should just go ahead and get married before she starts kindergarten. I could give up my dark and cold wedding.. Just so long as we are married and happy!
Thanks!

I suppose the winter break is an East Coast thing...sorry.
Frankly, your daughter is in Kindergarten and although I appreciate that you want her to learn good attendance habits early on, I might make an exception for an important event like this. That's just an opinion of an old bird but looking back on my two kids (ages 16 and 18 now) I would certainly have kept them out.
You should speak to your child's grandparents...maybe they wouldn't mind taking her to school if they are going to be stayong at your home or if they live nearby. I know my dad used to love to do that. It made him feel helpful and needed...and he sure was!
