getting married while pregnant?

I have been engaged for 2 years and we had finally set the date for this past November 7th..we had to post pone it due to a family member being very ill. We decided on a summer wedding. 2 weeks later, I'm pregnant! Very excited, but the pressure is unreal to get married.  I would rather wait until 2016, after baby is here. But people are urging us to go to the court house..we have been together for a long time and that's not going to change..I refuse to have a court house wedding just because I'm pregnant. Is this wrong of me?

My husband and I have been together a long time and he finaly asked me to marry him and a week later I found out I was pregnant.  His family wanted us to get married befor our daughter got here. I was fine with going to the court house to do it but his mom wanted us to have a big wedding. So in 6 weeks she planned a whole wedding and everything.  It was the most stressful 6 weeks of my life. It was a wonderful day and fun but I was so uncomfortable we left are own wedding early.  We just got married on 11-29-14. Dont let someone presser u into getting married right now. If you want to wait then wait. You should be able to injoy your day and have fun. And have the wedding you have always dreamed of.

My now husband and I were also engaged for over a year and had our date picked. We followed through with a small dream ceremony even after we found out we were expecting. We actually just had our wedding  Saturday, 12/13/14 and I was 23+1 weeks! Never even allowed anyone to tell us to just JP it. It's a once in a lifetime event. Make it perfect and capture that memory for a lifetime of treasuries

Not at all.  Get married when you want to.  Not because you're pregnant
