I am currently pleading my case for a 3:00 wedding to my mother via text message (while at work). You see she wants it to start at 2 (why she gets an opion is beyong me... especially considering I want it to start a mere hour later)
I want an evening wedding, but getting married in the beginning of January leaves us with NO dayling after 5pm to do any sort of outdoor picture... thing. So I want 3:00... and I'm calling it an evening wedding and I don't care what anybody says... dammit.
So for the last few weeks when someone asks us when the wedding is, mom would answer "2:30" and i would answer, "2:30-3:00"... great for scheduling a vendor, by the way...
In an attempt to get my way (which apparently requires research, witnesses, and solid, tangible proof regardless of the fact that this is MY WEDDING) I looked it up on the internet and for our wedding date we are supposed to have sunset at 5:00 exactly (or as much exactly as you can predict a little less than a year out). So I tell mom this, stating that even if the ceremony goes until 3:45, we'll still have enough sunlight to get some pictures.
Her answer, "Unless it's overcast."
Obviously this is worth arguing over to her. We're down to a half hour's difference... I am quickly approaching the 'whatever' stage in this argument. (because quickly after the 'whatever' stage comes making a decision in my family)
In an attempt to end this post on a high note (because the next argument is the difference between formal and semi-formal... which started in the bridal salon and hasn't been spoken of since... and will probably enter the 'whatever' stage shortly) my future mother in law just sent me an email from her blackberry that stated I "have a finance that worships the ground [I] walk on"
