Oh my goodness, I can imagine all of this dramatised....what a bizarre situation it is!! All credit to you to have got yourself to the good place you're at and can take it all in your stride.
I was XH's second W (he was my first M) and we had a nice little party with 35 or so close friends and family it was lovely. It has crossed my mind what sort of do they might have if it is third time around for him and whether people would want to make the transatlantic troop for it...
As you say, a little place far away would be a good outcome......goodness knows how all of this will play out.
Do take care and thanks for sharing the story xx
