Basically, I got married in the same forest that I used to pee in as a child. Maybe it was more special that way, since we were encouraging our guests to pee there as well.
Your location probably won’t be as urine-centric, but just try to pick a venue that works well for you and your betrothed’s needs—and then find ways to share it with your extended family. It might take a little extra work, but if Julie can share her underwater wedding with above water family, then surely you can share your goth industrial-loft wedding with your non-children-of-the-night relatives.
