So sorry. I'm sure you'll get it figured out. It will work out in the end.
May I ask, what your career fields are, to have job offers in Brazil and the Bahamas?
I work for an oil company. He works in ship yards as an marine engineer.
haha, I wish I had problems like that, owning multiple houses and being offered a job in the Bahamas lol Kidding aside, it does sound like it will be stressful. I planned my wedding from a few states away and that was annoying enough. I can't imagine countries apart!
Im sorry, but you will figure it out! I hope everything works itself out!
Wow that does sound stressful! I think if you guys move so much anyway, you should just keep the venue you booked because what is to say you won't move again? You can only change things so many times. Good luck though, and lots of hive hugs!
Oh wow that does sound stressful! I would really consider hiring a wedding coordinator. That would help save your sanity and take some of the stress off you. Good luck!
I agree, very stressful and hiring a coordinator would certainly help with the stress. Hugs to you, and good luck.
I feel your pain to a degree. We have 2 houses to contend with and are trying to plan the wedding from Houston. Wedding is destination. Then the FI is a pilot and is gone most days of the week. I'm stressing because he has to bid for his vacation and you are awarded vacation based on Seniority. So we just bid last night and won't find out till the end of the month if he has the wedding off!
If he doesn't get the wedding off then he'll go try to talk to the Chief Pilot and beg for the wedding day off. I'm like I don't care if how you do it but just get the wedding off. Rehearsal dinner I don't care if he misses.
Jobs!!! You make it and it will work out!
Stop what you are doing right now! Now, research and hire a wedding planner! With your schedules, that is the only way to truly save your sanity!
Good luck :)
Thanks for your support. I feel your pain vintage 2010. Pilots have an equally challenging schedule. I am sure it will work out. Who would let a man miss his own wedding?
I always thought of myself as the ultimate task master, and never considered hiring a planner, but I think my day has come. I am certain we will keep the venue in Philadelphia since we already put a down payment on the venue and band. Having someone in Philly will be a huge help if we make the move.
chirico8664, it sounds like a planner will really help you cope with planning stresses and if anyone needs one it's you! But it also sounds as if you are an awesome mult-tasker so I am sure that things won't be as bad as you fear. Keep us posted and let us know if we can help with ideas to keep you on task and well organized, even in these super-tough circumstances!
I agree with everyone who says to hire a wedding planner. People plan weddings from afar every day. You definetly sound like a smart girl, so I say take a deep breath (maybe have a drink) and come up with a plan to begin interviewing wedding planners if you are going to move and celebrate if you don't, sounds like nothing is a definite just yet. Good Luck!

Last Monday we decided on a venue, and put a down payment to secure the date August 21, 2010 Yeah! I work in Brazil every other month for 28 days, and I am home in Philadelphia 28 days. I left for work last Monday and on Wednesday my FI tells me he just got a call about a job opportunity in the Bahamas...WTF! This is not at all unusual for us to move around(4 houses in 4 years), but just after we set the date...WHY! He will find out more about the job this week so I am in super stress mode. We already have enough on our plates...long distance relationship, planning a wedding from Brazil, owning three houses...I am not against his decision to move to the Bahamas, and I support his career 100% just as he supports mine, but the logistics is going to be a nightmare. HELP!
