My fiance and I live together already, but I live in his hometown. I want to get married in my hometown but he wants to get married here in his hometown. I've only lived here for 2 years. I'm 31 and I want to get married where I grew up with all my family and friends. He says he'll have more co workers and friends attending our wedding so we should have it here. Where should we have it? Isn't there a custom or something that says the wedding should be where the bride is from? Please help me because neither one of us is backing down!

Re: Wedding in bride's hometown or groom's?
[In reply to]
Back in the days when the bride's parents paid for the wedding, the wedding was held in the bride's hometown at the church of the bride. So much has changed since those days. More couples are hosting their own weddings and making the decision about where to marry. This discussion must happen between the two of you and a conclusion arrived at after the discussion. It's good practice for the marriage. Good communication kills are the cornerstone of any successful marriage.
Keep talking...I'm sure you'll come to the right decision after laying out al the pros and cons for each side. Top Wedding Questions Forum Moderator - "Write your sorrows in the sand, your blessings in stone".
