writes: My bf proposed and I said yes. Now the thing is that he is from a normal family, married parents whereas both my parents are re-married. They live on opposite sides of the world. They won't even be able to make it to the wedding because of money issues. His family is wealthy. Its causing me so much anxiety because I am quite successful and I have made the most of my life but my parents have never really been there. My grandma raised me. Do you think this will make his family look down on me? I am not sure how to explain that my parents can't make it.

I have a friend who set up a web site (with password access) and a number of web cams with sound at different places for the ceremony and reception. Family in NZ and South Africa were able to connect in and to share in the event and even send chat messages of congratulations.
It all depends on how you deal with it together. Have you and he talked about it? Some families will get all stuck up about it and others will just accept things for what they are. He should be able to give you a better indication of how his family will react but no matter what they say and do, it is your day honey so just you go and enjoy it.
All the best.
