Did any LDR ended up in Wedding?

Hi all, I am considering getting married to my LDR boyfriend and I was wondering if you could share your tips with me. Especially how did you prepare the wedding? Did your families meet before the wedding??

Thanks

Hi there, I definitely hope so I want my LDR to finish in a wedding too !

Any answers?

Yes, my LDR ended up in a wedding as of 4 months ago. We had the wedding where I lived, since I was the Bride, and it was much easier that way because I wanted to do all the planning. We had a very simple, very private ceremony and it - was - GREAT. We didn't have to worry about his relatives travelling 350 miles or my relatives whining about not getting their way. I loved it.

It's not so hard to plan, I think, as it is to decide what to do with the people travelling, or if they will come at all.

So yes, LDRs can last. ;D If only immigration was quicker. LOL

While I'm not married just yet, I did get engaged Friday, April 10th.

Our relationship started online through a dating sight and has been LD the entire time.
I'm moving to his location in a few months to establish a career and plan the wedding.

I'm a believer that a LDR has just as much chance of working as a local relationship.

Best wishes!

Changing Perspective

the best way to get beyond the time block is to begin to shift your perspective: you are not 'wasting' the time until you're finally together, like you're in some waiting room..

start to see this time as 'building blocks' to invest in your successful relationship. After you are later 'together'.. it will be an every day event and time will still be there,.. nothing is ever going to be 'perfect'.. and so if you can enjoy the process, you will not only be investing in a beautiful foundation for your later --marriage, but you will be adding more and more to the success and beauty of that marriage even now, by choosing to embrace the importance of the now.

you are building character, patience, and inner strength so that when things get rough, you know that you are both secure in one another. this is essential for a healthy long-lasting relationship and what seems to be the greatest 'weakness' in an LDR is actually the very thing that makes them stand out and last the longest later on.

hang in there, and remember its all perspective..
its your 'love bank' you're filling up now.. so keep on stepping up and know that its all going to come back to you later in rewards..

luv Jen

It's hard not to get caught up in the negatives when you are in a long distance relationship. There are times when I've been bitter about our separation and needed to vent, so I try (in vain) to pick fights with my SO because I can't very well pick a fight with the economy, the army, my family's values, or any of the other actual causes of the distance between us. And sometimes, its the little things that I miss.

Tonight is one of those nights. I'm feeling like garbage and my body aches, I run home from work, throw on my snuggliest sweats and grab the remote. There's nothing in the world I want more than for my SO to walk in with some ice cream for us to share, give me a kiss on the forehead and plop himself down on the couch with me. Prom

My fiance and I got engaged on Super Bowl Sunday this year and she moved back home (about 600 miles away) indefinitely. I'm stuck here in school for 2 more years because the school I need to go to is here, but either I will move there for post-grad or she will come back. I wanted to get married this winter, but it will be very difficult with her being so far away because we both want our families to be there. I have heard from a friend that she had her wedding with only a few people there and they are celebrating their 5 year anniversary by having a big ceremony. Any other ideas?

Please and thank you.

In long distance relationships you don't "take time apart"...your already apart and that's the problem! You don't give each other days of silence it only makes things worse and can easily make one or both want to give up at that point

The great thing about wearing a little cover up over your wedding gown is that it allows you to have a conservative or traditional appearance for your ceremony, and then to lighten things up for the party to follow in a strapless or spaghetti strap dress.
