Eloping

[yeya]

We have decided to elope as my partner is Italian and the thought of having to invite every man and his dog ( as would be expected) just does not appeal to us..
We were thinking of having a few close friends to accompany us and to be witness to the marriage and then have a big party to celebrate when we get back..
What do you think????

thats exactly what were doing. best way to do it i reckon. I would rather spend the money on the honey moon and house then on people i have never met before.

French Gal, can I ask... are you going through any kind of fertility treatment? I also have PCOS and took over 2 years to fall pregnant, and went through treatment.

Not yet. Doc told me to loose some weight first, so that the fertility treatment would work better. I dont ovulate at all by myself. We have beeen TTC for over a year now. and ive only hade one period and apparently that was a clean out period. Sorry for tmi.

No not TMI at all. I used to menstruate every 6 weeks... but even so I still wasnt ovulating. I would have thought the doc would put you on chlomid anyway, gets you cycle nice and regular and makes u ovulate. They will usually just try putting you on chlomid before they do any artificial inseminations, or IVF / ICSI anyway.
I wish you the best of luck with it, I dont know about you, but it was heartbreaking going through it every month for me and always wondering. I went through all the treatments, and in the end fell just on the chlomid (I doubled my dose without telling anyone... very dangerous lol). :fingerscrossed: for a :bfp: for you soon!

My next appointment is in march, so i guess (well i hpe) we will start clomid then. Its very devastating when you cant conceive naturaly. we both are getting quiet impatient now. i remember at the start when we were trying and i was talking to the other girls. pretty much all f them have already had there bubs. as the saying goes good things come to those who wait. thanks

Sounds like a wonderful idea, weddings aren't about impressing everyone, they're about celebrating your love for one another. Good luck with it all. :thumbsup: :fingerscrossed:

Thats a great idea!!!

We are planning on doing something similar, bc my DP has such a large family (that he doesnt even like!) we cant afford to invite everyone.

But most importantly the principle of it all is to have the people that YOU actually want there! Not who your in-laws or your parents want! :thumbsup:

If you are wanting just your immediate family ie mum, dad, bro and sis, why dont u do something inc them ONLY and then have the big party for all other relos? That way the important people dont miss out on a very special day?
