I would love it if DS’s GF (or more exactly, her family) would have no strong objection to this extremely simple way to “get the thing done.”

However, I guess very few families would have the “luck” to have this. I may as well not have a pipe dream that we could win this “lottery” as its chance is slim to none.

I am not big on the form of a celebration of marriage, I said to the d I don’t have much opinion on how they want to do their wedding. Their dad told me if they need financial help we will provide it.

I said to my d I would prefer before stepping into marriage I would want them to spend some effort and time to go for pre marriage counseling. I think all couples need tools and skillsets for a successful long term relationship. Sometimes love is not enough as we all know.
