I see you're kicking things off right and completely endearing yourself to the family. There must be quite a story behind Cayci's comlicity.

If you mean "complicity", well, I already expressed my disapproval of them not following <strong>my "2 year rule"</strong> in getting engaged. Also, when you hear your dad constantly saying "we just have to get your sister married" and...um...you went on a few dates with your sister's fiance in HS...you just let it go down however they want and keep your piehole shut.
And I am now back home again, and wanting to sing "Ding, Dong the Witch is Dead" for some reason.</blockquote>
And just how long have you two been together? ;-P</blockquote>
Less than that.
AND, that is a minimum.</blockquote>
I think a 2 year minimum is a good idea. I'd also add in actually living together for a time, although I know I could receive the wrath of many for saying that.</blockquote>
No wrath here, i actually encourage it also. Men and women are very different and living together is a crucibel. I waited 6 years and WOULD have waited longer had I known my wife had sever debt issues (now taken care of 3 YEARS LATER...). But definitely we got off to a bad start and that is also why I recommend a smaller wedding.
Money is almost the #1 issue and starting off by spending $00,000 to $000,000 on a wedding could be the start of the breaking point.
Just my two cents.
good luck
