Live-in and I do disagree on our "dream wedding." Luckily for me, I think finances will play a pretty huge part (he's positive my dad will want to fund the wedding, I'm positive he won't, I'm positive his mom will TRY to fund the wedding, we're both positive we'll try to limit that lest it become HER wedding), so we'll probably end up having my dream wedding rather than his.
I'm warming up to the idea of about 70 people (our families are ever-expanding, especially now that my dad is getting married and his fiancee has 2 kids and 5 grandkids, 4 of which will be adults or nearly adults by the time we get married), but 30 is my ideal. Actually, 10 was my ideal before (his parents and their significant others, brother, brother's gf, my dad, brother, SIL, niece) but I'm warming up to it. He'd love to have a HUGE wedding with 200 if he could, though.
We're still a little ways off. I think we're aiming for being married around 30, just so that we're well on our way in both of our careers prior to planning to have children. Of course, things don't necessarily have a way of following our perceived timeline!
