Should a Death in the Family Change Your Wedding Plans?
July 16th 2008 02:07
The date has been set. Venues had been selected and booked. The wedding gown already ordered. The initial layout of the invitation has been sent to the printing shop. It’s just 4 months to go and soon it will be the big day! You and your partner decided to take care of every bit of detail 8 months before the date because you don’t want to run out of time. Besides, the wedding venue is such a popular place that it is a pain to get the date of your choice if you leave it to the last minute. And bride-to-be has set her eyes on that lovely wedding gown that she had always dreamed of wearing on her wedding day and groom-to-be (with all his love for his bride) got only the best couture for her.
Wew! Planning a wedding surely is serious stuff. But what happens if, accidentally or unexpectedly, a family member of either the bride or the groom suddenly passed away? Should the wedding be re-scheduled? Or should they go through with the plan?

Personally, I would go ahead with the wedding. If I died, I would hate the idea of my family postponing/cancelling their wedding out of grief for me. I would want them to move on and have a reason to celebrate and look forward to something.
