I'm very newly engaged, and me and my fiancé both agree we'd like to hold our wedding in our backyard as we're not going to have many guests at all. Like.. 10 people max. The only issue is every actual backyard wedding I've seen they have a fully fenced yard, or they have a *huge* and seemingly neighborless backyard so they rent a tent. We have privacy thanks to a line of trees in the back, but from the sides we have neighbors and no fence. And while out backyard isn't tiny per se it is also not big enough (or a big enough group) to warrant a tent. Any advice on what to do?

For context, my girlfriend is already aware that she's gone through mania (and her old therapist anf psychiatrist confirmed this). She's now finally coming down from a bad episode and as she's coming down she's becoming very, very depressed. I vaguely brought up the idea while she was still manic, but it was just kinda brushed off. I'm very concerned and as I've looked more and more into it, she shows all the signs including not responding to regular antidepressants.

I love her a lot and I want her to get better and feel better, and this last episode really ended up in both of us feeling very hurt so honestly neither of us want it to happen again. It just feels like a heavy thing to drop in someone and I worry that it won't be well received, is there an easy way to approach this subject??
