I'm so sorry girlie! I know how you feel about moving right after you get married, it can be so stressful. That's what we had to do this summer in order for my husband to have a job after graduation. I hope that grad school gets figured out soon so you can have a set date!
*hug* aw i'm sorry...try to be patient..the time will come when you'll set a date, i know it's hard but it'll come!...
Ugh. Grad school just messes with everything. We're starting to think about the future after the wedding and when people ask all we can do is shrug. until you get a YES on an application, who knows where you will end up?! For now, i suggest taking a few big breaths. While you don't have a date set, you can make concrete decisions- look at venues, caterers, DIs, bakeries, photographers, rental companies, etc. Make a 1-5 list of the ones you LOVE as they are online. Maybe send out feelers as to pricing or personality. Then, when the day arrives that you can set a date, BAM! you are ready! You could then throw a wedding together in just a few months or less! And while I have never been to Texas (or anywhere South of St. Louis), my Uncle lives there and loves it. I also have friends in the state who adore living there.
aw rabbit, thanks.
Actually, the problem is that we DO have all the vendors. DOC, Cake, caterer, DJ, ceremony musicians, rental company, two venues (long story), dress, hair, makeup... all of it. It's all for the same original date, May 15, that isn't going to happen now.
So it's like.. ummm i'm losing out on about $2000 worth of deposits if we dont find out soon! AHHH I wish we could have gone ahead with the May wedding. I JUST WANT TO GET MARRIED, lol, isn't that the point of a wedding?
I hope that you do find out soon. So can you go ahead with the May wedding if you find out that you don't have to leave right away?
I wish we could, but FI has to leave right away even if I don't... :( No may wedding!
Not good at all! But if he is leaving that soon, then you wouldn't be able to have the wedding where you are anyway unless you don't move until later right?
We're having it in our parents' hometown here in SC, so having it here is most practical as about 60% of our guest list lives here. (The other 40% may not even show up, lol.)
Wedding stress just sucks! Ice cream and christmas lights didn't even make it better tonight, lol.
Oh yeah having it near family does make it easier. Though living with family isn't always fun! Ice cream should make you happy not more stressed! My stepmom says that my husband should get me a Christmas tree to make me happy but that won't happen lol.
(((Hugs)))
I'm sorry to hear this! :(
I'm a little confused though, why doensn't May work? Will FI already be in TX working then?
@daydream
yes unfortunately.. texas or georgia. And the FIL's plans of helping us out with stuff hinge on him starting school first and getting settled, which i am all for.
HUGS.
Sometimes life gets in the way of wedding plans - I know I did in my case and it was hard at first. I had to move my wedding from April to Oct 2010, and from New Zealand to Vegas - not to mention that I have already had a quick city hall ceremony so my partner could start the green card process and have to have a vow renewal so all of our family and friends can attend.
But at the end of the day. your lives together are more important than whether your wedding happens in May, or at another time. The time will come when you will figure everything out and then you will feel much better. I felt exactly the same way, but now, I'm super happy things worked out the way they did!
Thanks so much, wildstyle. I'm glad to know that I'm not the only one who feels distraught about it! And you're so right! I do want to just figure our lives out, getting married is just my goal... I can't even think of a wedding right now.
Grad school is getting in the way of my life too, my sympathies are with you. I wont find out where I get in until march, and i'm getting married jan 16.... so who knows what were going to do! I hope you get to set a date soon
Aww thanks everyone! AshleyJane isn't it just horrible waiting to see what the future brings? scary and confusing :(
At least you have your vendors picked!! that is really the hard part. We can't find a date or a venue or anything else :)
ANOTHER SETBACK! It might even be after december '10 that we get married... like March or April '11 if he chooses one particular school!
I am seriously going to bawl my eyes out. my engagement started out 11 months. Now it's turning into two years... and no end in sight yet! The ONE thing I had to look forward to planning, to doing this year... it's just GONE right now. I think I sorta want to destroy wedding mags right now. ugh. :(

I am so confused about our wedding. People ask and I don't even have a date anymore!
I just found out this weekend that we may be moving to Dallas after getting married... it's the most "stable" plan we have right now, job-wise. I'd actually not mind it too much, but I have NO idea when that means we'd get married... like in summer, fall or winter!
And that's only a maybe plan... it all depends sooooo much on FI's grad school stuff. I just want to be able to have a date, plan and go with it! I don't want to be away from him for six months doing an LDR.
I think i seriously just want a hug and an answer as to when I'm getting married. AHHH. Someone pick a date, I have an unconventional venue that's free 99% of next year... lol then i'll give you all my vendors, you can just plan everything and tell us when to show up. Just kidding.
