Everything you need for a Midwest wedding

Are you planning on having someone pick you up in the city and drive you all the way back out to the Midwest for the wedding, or are you looking at doing something else entirely? I honestly haven't even come up with a solid plan yet—it's one of those things that feels much more complicated than it should be. 🤷
We initially thought about having them come get me in the city, but honestly, nobody wants to spend two hours stuck in a wedding dress crammed into a car, especially since I'm pregnant, so they'll just head out to where I am.
Since my fiancé is from the same small town as my parents and I have a ton of family there, I'll just get ready at my brother's place and they can pick me up from his house...
I mean, when my uncle got married—his wife is also from the city—they all gathered together, drove to the city to grab her, and then made the trek back to the Midwest for the wedding. 😁
I figure a two-hour drive is actually pretty manageable these days, especially since cars actually have decent AC now... he’ll probably be fine with it, considering he'll be doing a four-hour round trip to get you, while you're only looking at two.😁
