Re: we were on a BREAK....
We bought our place together 3 months after the wedding. I moved into his one bed room right after shadi and then we went on a pretty long honeymoon.
We didnt depend on neither of our parents and went for it ourselves. I really enjoyed the whole process as it was the two of us making a home together!
Actually my parents had only visited his parents once before shadi and they didnt see his place at all. My dad liked him a lot. Mum was VERY sceptic to everything but funny that they didnt actually check out much about him and his family....
anways my point is that the couple should go for it themselves..be independent and make their own lives..instead of relying on others!!
