Yesterday I thought about how all of these relatives are taking time out of their lives to fly/drive in to see Emily's wedding. I then thought about how I would be somewhat uncomfortable having so many people give up time to come see me get married. I suppose I just don't think anything that I do is important enough for dozens of people to sacrifice a day or two to witness. This is especially true because I think many of the people who would come to my wedding wouldn't really want to be going in the first place. This seems like a strange situation where you're encouraged to throw a party that will cost a fortune that you know many people invited won't want to attend.
