At this point with mounting problems with scheduling and what not.... it looks like this is going to be a private affair without all the hoopla and meters just mine and Keiths ears as the judge.... pretty much as it was originally proposed.
Rob,
It really doesn't matter what day you would make it, someone is going to harp about not being able to make it.
Just set a date and do it. The ones who really want to be there will find a way to make it. Don't worry about the masses, just leave an open invitation.
