Well, here's my idea. We can do all the bells and whistles. The cake and the dress and the big party you want. But I have a couple compromises.
One, we don't rush this. We have it after we move and are settled in New Orleans. I know you're going to be busy so I will do the bulk of the planning, but we take our time.
Two ... I love all your brothers, babe, but you have too many. I don't have enough friends that I consider bridesmaid worthy to match them and I know you could pick but I don't want to make you so can we do a really small wedding party? Like maid of honor, best man, flower girl and ring bearer, that's it?

Maeve'll be thrilled, and my brothers wouldn't do with the pomp and the circumstance, anyway. Deal. To all of it.
