     destination/renew vows  

My daughter and fiance unexpectedly flew off to Vegas and just got married. They had a destination wedding planned in May but got married a head of time. Now they still want the destination reception. Is it right to have all these guests spend the money (3 night min stay) and do all this for a couple that is already married? I am the mother and would just like to give them a party where we live with in the next month. What do you think?

Dear Opus,

It is your choice to host a reception if you wish. It isn't mandatory. As host you can host it any where you wish. But, since parents are no longer financially responsible, the couple would have to agree that they want it.

They would be paying for their reception at the destination. They may invite guests if they wish, as it is common to host a belated wedding reception. The guests would then decide if they want to attend.

They wouldn't be hosting another wedding. They are already married. So, hopefully this wasn't something they wanted to include. If so, their guests may be a bit amused.

It is all about choices.

Best wishes,
