My sister is getting married. It’s been an on-again-off-again engagement, and for the moment it’s on.
She lives in Wyoming and, frankly, I’m not so sure the wedding is going to happen. I feel some guilt about not going if it actually happens, but I also really don’t want to spend the hundreds and hundreds of dollars it will take to go to Jackson and then not have it happen and… BAH!
What would you have liked on your wedding day or thereabouts from a relative who couldn’t make it to the ceremony? I’d like to do something.
It’s a second marriage for both bride and groom, if that matters.
Could you do a video of some sort to say the things you would say to her/them if you were actually there?
Could you send her something special to wear, a piece of jewelry or some kind of accessory, to remind her that you’re there in spirit?
Instead of spending lots of money on travel, could you pay for part of the festivities, like the cake or the flowers, or her bouquet?
I’m just vamping here, really, trying to come up with something that will make you kind of part of the party, or part of the wedding itself.
Does she have a reading or a favorite quotation that you could record to include in the wedding?
