Better off eloping?
Like lots of girls, I dream of having the perfect wedding. I imagine my dream dress, the ceremony, the music, etc. It's a silly fantasy, and it's all in good fun when I'm bored.
But when I really think seriously about getting married, I think about just eloping with a few witnesses (or none). So many members of my family don't like or hold grudges with each other, it'd be way too awkward or even risky to have a nice, traditional wedding.
Even worse, I don't think I'm even going to be able to get married at all. My family is full of divorces and separations, and I'm afraid I'll be headed there too if I get married.
As long as you keep your relationship stable, you don't have to worry about heading in that direction.
If your family are really going to get in the way and affect your relationship, talk to it about them, and if that doesn't work, find your own path.
It's your life to live, and do what is best for you in your heart.
