:bluewave I read a beautiful article by a photographer somewhere where he went to New York to photograph a couple who travelled there to get married and it was just the couple and him. If I can find the link I'll put it here. It was really lovely and the photos were stunning.

:bluewave Welcome!

That sounds really nice! Do you not need to have witnesses for the wedding on the day though?

Yea we need witnesses, but i'm hoping the wedding planner will be able to organise that for us..I'm just waiting on 1 to get back to me. We were thinking of lanzarote and the wedding planner there said it would be no problem, but we had to change that cause we want to go on a cruise as the honeymoon and you cant do that from Lanzarote....

I see you have a lot of things sorted! I think that it would be lovely, just the 2 of you and then a honeymoon by yourselves. Will you be having a party or something when you get back home then for friends and family? I don't have anything to help you out, I am just being nosey because it sounds nice! Sorry! :blushing

Welcome welcome!! Sounds lovely! My friend did this. They got married in dublin and she had her grandmother and his grandmother there. Then they went to the four seasons, got a suite and had dinner with her grandmother just the 4 of them in the suite. was perfect for them as they have loads of serious family drama but they loved it and wouldnt have done it any other way

Sounds exactly what myself and H2B have decided to do with our little girl, and I say fair play to doing it the way you want and not the 'norm' and doing it for everyone else!

hope you get in touch with the wedding planner you want :)

Sounds absolutely fantastic!!! I'd love to do it... but my mother would NEVER speak to me again!! lol Hence why we've settled on a small wedding abroad, jus family and close friends!
It is very tempting though, and we even looked into it! Central Park in New York looked fabulous!
Happy Planning! :justmarried
