I wish it were so easy. The problem is that my parents don't want their parents (my grandparents) to come to the wedding. Brittany's grandparents are coming, but my parents don't want to have to babysit their folks for a weekend in Vegas. They are adamant about this, and don't want me to invite my grandaparents at all. So, I can piss off my parents and just invite the grandparents, or, I can fail to invite the grandparents, and have bad blood with them, especially if they find out Britt's grandparents were there. So whatever I do, somebody close to me is going to be very upset at us.

What I ended up doing was giving my grandparents' invitations to my parents. If I get a call from grandma asking where her invite is, I'll tell her "Oh, I gave that to my dad to give to you, didn't he? Better ask him about it." Then, he's the bad guy. I told my parents this is what I'd say, so we'll see what happens now that they will be the target of anger and hard feelings from grandparents instead of me.

The only thing that I can tell you is that as long as you and your intended are happy, then things are good.

Yeah, in the end, all I really care about is that Britt and I are happy. If somebody is too nasty and self-absorbed to be happy for us, fuck 'em. We don't need them. But it would be nice to resolve things in such a way that no one is too upset. Blah.

BTW, You forgot to give us the time, date and location of the reception.

It's in a city called Pleasant Grove, UT, about 30 minutes south of Salt Lake City. The day is September 6th, time is 7:00pm. We're going to have a grill going, and drinks on ice. I know that I'm probably the only Cellarite in this vicinity though, so I suspect none of you fine people will be able to join us. But if anyone really wants the actual address of the event, just PM me.

Thanks for the congrats, guys. I am very excited about this.
