an awkward time for a reunion

jess already posted about this over at lnfmbb but after reading this article in the New York Times i thought it was worth writing about over here.  with the royal wedding just weeks away (i don't have a count down going on or anything...), the article discusses how it is royal tradition to invite your exes to your wedding.  personally, while i would take the celebs, national guard, and parade, i think i would pass on inviting my exes to my wedding (when that day comes someday maybe).

both william and kate are inviting exes they had serious relationships with, not just flings but first loves.  i am pretty confident that mine would not want to attend even if i did invite him, so why put him through that decision making process?  while i have love and respect for all of them, i think that a reunion and catch-up session can be left for another setting...say a quick cup of coffee around christmas time?? no need to have them be front and center while you commit yourself to someone else, talk about awkward!


what do you think?  yay or nay to the exes at your wedding (or any major life event for that matter?) my vote is a major nay, you should be focusing your attention on the person you are committing your life to, not the one who took you to prom.
