I'm starting to think that the court house was good enough for me... maybe I should just say screw this whole ceremony for friends & family thing. Sure it will be fun but I don't know if it is really worth the time & money. Plus there is no guarentee that my parents will show up anyway. Who will give me away?No one. I don't know Mark & I will have to talk about it more. We're already married anyway. That is all I need.

Markara,
First off take a deep breath. Now that you have done that. What excatly is frustrating you? You need to take one thing at a time that's what i realized and once i did that i am now much more relaxed. Don't give up.

Calm down. Have you always dreamed of a big wedding surrounded by family and friends? If so, then you should work at having that dream. It can seem like an impossible task if you look at all the things that need done at once. Take them step by step. It will all fall into place, I promise. As for your parents, they love you. They will show up at their daughter's wedding. And, if by some amazing chance they don't who says you need anyone to give you away? You are a strong minded independent modern woman, walk yourself down that aisle. There is nothing to be ashamed of in that. Or, better yet, you are already married to a wonderful man walk down together. Finally, don't look at it as a major expense. See it as a way to bring together two sets or family and friends to celebrate your union and love.

Kara,
Close your eyes and count to 10.
Take a deep breath.
Open your eyes and smile really big.
What is it that is frustrating you? There are ways around everything and we are all here to listen to you vent, give you advice, and answer any questions you might have. I would strongly suggest to sit down with Mark and decide what you really want. I am sure there is someone that can walk you down the aisle. Since Mark and you are already married maybe Mark can escort you. If you have an uncle or cousin you are really close to that is another option should your father not attend. I know how important it is for your father to escort you however you can make other arrangements if he chooses not to come.
If you have any other questions please ask and I am sure someone will have some advice for you.
Good luck!!
