It seemed like there were 600 things to take into account and in some ways choosing one date over another was in some ways choosing one guest/bridal party member over another! Our younger daughter ended up skipping her senior class trip in order for her sister to have the date that worked for everyone else... A sacrifice Katy still brings up she was so grateful!
