My hubby and I eloped and had the most perfect, intimate, romantic wedding. But that's all we had money for was the wedding and one night stay in an economy hotel. We didn't even have any pictures done, because the plan was we would come back in a month and do them and then have a small reception afterwards. But you know how life is, first a honeymoon baby postponed things, then a major move...etc.etc... I have always wanted to have a traditional reception and do all those things such as invite every close person I've ever known, cut the cake, have a first dance, throw my boquet, and finnally have formal wedding photography in my wedding dress, (even though I won't look quite as young as I did at 22) Would it be weird to have a 10th anniversary celebration and complete my dream wedding reception I really wanted to have? Looking for opinions if you were one of my guests invited to this senario would you think it a waste of your time or money to come since it is already past?Mmm, it will hard to choose a best answer. I have to say most responses say this is a cool idea, so if the majority of the people here think it is a good idea then I'm sorry Ediquette Gal but saying that it's a pathetic idea is a bit harsh. What does it matter what I call it. I just wanted to know if it would be weird to have the celebration 10 years later. Honestly I know this, but I was just curious to see what the major populous would say, it doesn't really matter what anybody should think of what I do or say. You only live once in a lifetime, why go out of this life having regrets of any sort! Even if everyone did think it was weird I would have still done it because I have always done things differently, it's just my way!

Just call it a 10 year anniversary party. Nothing wrong with that. If I was a guest I would think it is soooo cool. And how fun! My husband and I went low key on our wedding and we always said we would have a big party one day but here we are 23 years later. I would rather go to an island and chill than have a party now!! Go for it.

No, it wouldn't be weird.What does it matter how long it's been since you got married. Having a wedding reception would be the perfect time to renew your vowels with your husband. It's lovely not weird.

I don't know that it would be such a bad thing. There were probably people that were sad that they weren't included in the original ceremony. So I'm guessing you're thinking a ceremony to renew your vows and then party afterward? Sounds fine to me.

I think it's a great idea! And your friends and family would probably think so, too. And your children can be a part of it, now that's something you couldn't have done 10 years ago. Plus this day and age 10 years together is a huge accomplishment, and you should celebrate! Have fun.

Well I would think that only you and your Husband can make that descion I mean it might be werid but as you said it is important to you to have a tradtional wedding dress and such I think you should do what you think and keep other people out of it.

Repeating your vows in your dream wedding sounds wonderful!!! I would be honored to be invited to such an event of a friend of mine. Please state "no gifts" on the invitation. Have a great time!!! Maybe even another honeymoon baby.

Come on, haven't you two been married long enough to know that the wedding is a bunch of baloney. It is really special for people who don't already know what there getting into. Spend your money on a nice romantic get-a-way vacation to the tropics. It's not about pleasing the relatives, it never was and that's why you eloped in the first place. Right?
