This is definatley an issue all of us DW Brides & Grooms will without a doubt face.
Half of my invited family members (Mainly Auntys and Uncles) have got the sh**ts with me and think it is pretty much selfish of us to get married in a place dear to our hearts and wanted us to get married at home in Australia, but the costs of a Sydney Wedding are through the roof. We would prefer a calm stress free wedding. And they are annoyed, because they wont be able to make it. Then I have the other half saying its a great idea and its OUR day not theres, but it really makes me upset!!
But really I dont really care if they cant make it, it definatley wouldn't bother me. ARRGGGHHH sorry everyone had to vent some anger.
