I am confused. You're getting married at a courthouse and commenting that your mom does not like that idea, but you think this is cheesy and choose to judge them for it?

OP - you don't need to change your wedding date unless you were having yours the day before. If you wanted to do it after, then maybe do something small and intimate a couple of months later (September).... but that's your choice! If the bride is a reasonable person, she won't even put the two events together! I know I wouldn't have!

we are having an intimate affair, so no I'm not looking to have the spotlight on me at all. Would be happy if it was just the two of us actually. Yes they are getting married in Niagara Falls, their choice, and we are going ahead with our plans no matter what.

It really doesn't in the terms of most normal people.

One year, my cousin got married.... then two weeks later, another cousin got married....and then two weeks later, my brother got married. Nobody cared.

Really? I know some people think it's cliche location, but I love that sort of thing.

OP: There's no good reason why you should have to postpone your wedding; it in no way takes away from the other wedding, especially since you already had dibs.

I'm so confused! You THINK they're planning a summer wedding?

What does his ex have to do with your wedding?

Talk to the young couple and explain that you don't want to get in a position to be stealing each other's thunder. Remind them of when your date is, and ask what you can do to help them with their special day.

You're borrowing trouble.

So confusing. I still can't figure out why you would postpone. Unless its on the same day, or maybe weekend, no reason to postpone.

That is my opinion!
You can judge if you like.
My family members tried to control wedding and Op need to her foot down.

I failed to see how Niagara falls is romantic at all.
