Ok, I updated my timeline, so it should be correct now...

I have tossed around the idea of pushing back the wedding. My parents are huge sticklers to us having a formal, traditional, huge, white wedding. :wacko:

I checked my updates on the USCIS website and it says my case hasn't been touched since 11/15/2010!! :(:(:(:( This is like worse than bad news. I have no idea what to do anymore.

This is what is says in your timeline...

I-129F NOA1 : 2011-11-05

Don't you mean 2010-11-05?

Correct dates are essential for the projections to be of any use.

11/15/10: NSO Marriage and Birth Certificates available for pick-up at NSO

I am in a very similar situation, people on this site just don't understand that you can't plan the type of wedding that will satisfy some families in the 3 months you have. My backup plan is this: if the visa doesnt come in time, he'll come over and we'll have the big wedding with family and friends, but not get a marriage license (i.e. have a religious, not a legal wedding) . Then, he'll fly back to england for his interview and when he comes back we'll have a small town hall wedding as our "legal" marriage. its not the best of situations (and you absolutely cant mention that youre entering the country for your wedding), but it will work if worst comes to worst.

I'd think twice about that if I were you. If they get one whiff of this, they may just deny the visa on the spot. Happens all the time in other consulates where a 'religious' ceremony has taken place prior to the interview. The burden of proof is then on you to prove you didn't get married. For all they know, you're hiding a marriage license from them, even if you really didn't get one.
