Would You Give Up Your Dream of a Big Wedding For Your Fiancé - Day 6

If you wanted to marry your significant other and you had your heart set on a big wedding with all the works and he/she wasn't really into such a display and really had their heart set on something on a much smaller scale would you scale back your plans or would you force the issue because it has always been your dream?

When I was planning my first wedding I had my heart set on the big elaborate event and luckily my fiancé was all for it as well. I'm not sure how I would have felt if he wanted something smaller. I know that I wouldn't have settled for a court house wedding that's for sure but I'd like to think that I would have compromised on some level but I just don't know.

When I plan my second marriage I now have my heart set on a much smaller event. I actually am hoping for a court house wedding this time. The only way I'd have a big shindig is if my fiancé really had his heart set on it. I would then give in because I wouldn't want to feel as if I was making him miss out on something.

It's funny, you'd think most guys would want a small event and not care about the particulars but I've met a lot of men that actually desire a big elaborate thing. Go figure.

What would you do in that situation? You you stick to your guns or compromise with your fiancé?
