Its official, Wedding plans CANCELLED!
I'm a little disappointed... but happy at the same time

Well after TONS of drama, arguments, money issues and stress, my fiance and I have decided to screw the whole thing and take off to Vegas! Since my last post I talked to my FH and he said he didn't want to speak to his dad becasue it would be a huge arguement and nobody would be happy, I was feeling like I wanted to screw the whole thing, I was so upset... So that's what we're doing!

After looking at about 100 little Wedding Chapels and options like helicopter wedding, drive thru wedding, limo wedding, hotel wedding, chapel wedding, Elvis wedding... I found a little place called Wedding Bells Chapel, it wasn't a whole lot different from the rest but one thing had me sold in a second... that's where Tom Petty was married!!! Hahaha, I'm a HUGE Tom Petty fan, you can tell I'm having a lot of fun when I bust out the Tom Petty :D

Their monthly special includes:

Outside Garden Gazebo
Candlelight Ceremony
Wedding coordinator
Music
Rose Boutonniere
12 Rose Bouquet
Professional Photography - 28 poses
Video
Bottle of Champagne
Champagne Glasses
Garter
Small Cake

All that for $282!!!

So, we're packing our bags, packing up our kids and taking off to Vegas for a few days! IT takes about 15 hours to drive there from here, not too bad. I asked my dad to come and he was happy to, at first he said "YOU JUST WANT ME TO COME SO YOU CAN HAVE A BABYSITTER!!!" He laughed and said he would love to. He suggested he stay with the kids in a different hotel than my FH and I so we can be alone. He said we can take off and galavant the night away, he's too old for that kind of stuff :P

So, I'm so happy that it's all working out, take off and screw it all. A lot of people are happy we're doing this because of all the DRAMA, I've been through so much with all this wedding bs, who would have thought it would be such a thing to get married! I'll make it look easy ;)

We lost the money we put down on the Yacht... $1000. I dont think my FMIL is going to be happy about that, she was the one who gave it to us... she can take that up with her ex husband lol! He's the reason we had to elope in the first place!

My baby girls dress is paid off and ready to go, I have yet to get my dress but I will in a few days, pay off the tux's and we're so outta here! WAHOO!!!!!

CONGRATS! I was hoping you would say screw it and just elope. You have gone through so much crap with his family and this way it can be just the two of you with no extra drama!

Lol, I agree, remember what's important and focus on that, the love between the two of you and starting a life together. I read over some of your past blobbing and wow! You did have a lot of drama, lol, good for you and your FH that you decided not to go into to debt and just have fun and enjoy your day. You can always do a wedding ceremony at another time if you wanted to. CONGRATS and have fun in Vegas!
