Not so much that I couldn't marry without their blessing, but I do have a really close friend from my last job who was quite opinionated about the way things should be.
Both of us were divorced, and when I met her, I had been engaged to my (now) husband for a while. He was also divorced, and NOT the type of person who enjoys getting all formal. Our plan from the start was to go to a Justice of the Peace, but my friend had other visions.
I couldn't tell you how many times I heard something about how it was just sooo sad that we weren't getting married in a church with a huge guest list, fancy dress, cake, etc. Been there, done that. Didn't make it work. So, if both of US agree that jeans are fine, just GO WITH IT! I felt like saying.... 'it's our decision to wear sweats if we want to. we're going a little more formal than that. if you don't like it, fine. when you're the one getting married, let's see how much you enjoy someone else planning everything for you.'
