Howdy from another (not that young) first time bride, too! I understand your predi***ent there... as I have certainly been to a few weddings over the years but I have never been IN one. Figuring this all out for yourself, reading book after book and website after website gets a bit stressful. I am starting to feel like I am drowning and I just started planning! (LOL) The only sure-fire advice I can offer you is to take a deep breath and ENJOY every minute of your special day, as well as the planning stages that precede it. No matter what happens... the best kind of wedding is always one that makes the one you love your spouse. Congratulations and best of luck to you both!

Hello - Why is it, exactly, that your parents do not approve. Is this guys bad news..have 3 kids...been in prison...or are your parents just being parents? I would try your best to get your family to come around and support you, but, if they do not, go on with the wedding you want. Or, maybe eloping with a few friends would feel better. Just take it step by step. There are a lot of books and websites that offer wedding planners...just take out of those what is useful to you. Start with a date and a budget. Good luck to you! Hope your family comes around for you ;)

Sorry to hear your family won't help! The best advice I can give you is to keep your head up, and do it yourself. What about the groom's family? Are you close to them? Recruit some friends, and family that will support you during this time, and incorporate them in your wedding planning. It's a huge process (I know, mine is in November, and my whole family is out-of-state). Plan as you go...get the big things out of the way first, like the ceremony site, reception site, florist, caterer, dj. Then focus on the details as your time gets closer. If you haven't set a date, then give yourself a timeline for when you want things completed. There a great wedding planning books out there, and they give you a calendar to follow as to when certain things should be done. Keep it simple, and get the groom to help! ( If you have any tips on that, let me know!) Good luck, and despite the hardships, enjoy this time...you'll remember it! Congratulations.
