You absolutely should not have a wedding. The two of you should go to the court house or to Vegas or have a Justice of the Peace come to your house (depending on your state,you might not even have to have witnesses). My hub and I had a JP marry us at our house, and it was a wonderful day. For months, we considered various options, but I kept coming back to the fact that I wanted to BE married but I did not want to GET married. I joked that I wanted to snap my fingers, and Voila!...we're married. A private in-home wedding was the closest I could get to that.

Yeah, his dad is a huge mess. He's one of those types of men...no a total waste of space on this earth who contributes nothing positive & my SO agrees. If you had a family member like this, you'd want to lie about wedding dates too so he won't find out. Also my SO comes from such a large family that he says it's impossible to keep a secret in his family because someone always tells someone. An entire book could be written about all the horrendous things this man has done to my SO & others he's supposed to love. My SO & I have also even talked about having security outside our wedding premises so if his dad & his wanka of a wife (NOT my SO's mom) even think about showing up at our wedding, they'll be escorted off the premises. I hope I never see his dad ever again in life.
