GTKY: "Did you and your partner have a big wedding, small wedding, not married yet or no plans to be?" We had a medium sized wedding on a big wedding budget - days before the economy tanked (oops! but then again, better spent on a wedding than lost in the market, as we try to tell ourselves!)

It's 2 days after I triggered, so let's call this O day.
Waiting for beta....completed 2nd IUI this morning. MH usually has good numbers, but today not so much, so we'll see.
Our wedding was small, less than 20 people. Since we are from different countries it was impossible to plan anything where everyone we really wanted could attend. We decided to ditch tradition and got married seaside in the Carribean with our closest friends and most immediate family.

GTKY: "Did you and your partner have a big wedding, small wedding, not married yet or no plans to be?"
We had a very small wedding, less than 20 people. Just immediate family and friends. We had a destination wedding and got married on the beach in Key West (love that place!). I am Catholic, DH is not. I am not super religious and didn't want a big wedding (my family alone would have invited 200 guests if we had it at home).

Waiting for: At this point probably AF. I may test on Sunday, but I tested this morning and got a BFN.
GTKY: "Did you and your partner have a big wedding, small wedding, not married yet or no plans to be?" Smaller wedding. It's a second marriage for both of us. We (mostly me) wanted to have that wedding experience for us so we did a really elegant evening ceremony and reception at a local hotel and kept the guestlist under 50.
TTC since August 2011, Me = 40, DH = 38
Unexplained IF. Tried Clomid for 3 cycles. All BFNs. BFP 1/6/13. Chemical pregnancy.

Waiting for: AF to get here so we can figure out our next plan of attack (I have a feeling that my IUI didn't work).
GTKY: We have been engaged since October (together for over three years). Both of us were previously married and really don't want to plan anything big. We'll probably end up eloping to some tropical island on our own eventually.

Waiting for: O - we converted this cycle to just Femara and TI vs. IUI and possible Ovidrel due to timing and funds. I also needed a break from trying so hard since last BFN was so devastating.
GTKY: By my family's standards, we had a medium sized wedding. We had 100 guests (125 RSVP'd - grrrr). It was a really great party / reunion. We had a pretty good mix too of friends and family.

We had I think a medium sized wedding. I wanted everyone to have a good time and I am hoping I accomplished it.

My first wedding we had 250 guests and second wedding 150 guests. Really wanted to go to Mexico and get married on the beach but too expensive for some. We ended up having casual dress for my second wedding with a pig roast and bbq food!
