Wedding help….?

I read online some where that to have the perfect wedding, imagine perfect scenario in your head then try to recreate that. I’ve also heard that one is supposed to "be true" to yourself and your wedding.
The problem with these suggestions are that I have multiple ideas that I would be happy with.
Idea 1 — married in a flower field. I would love to have either an aqua trimmed dress or a pink trimmed dress. Very simple and pretty and romantic. This would cause the least trouble, and I would enjoy it just as much as my other themes.
Idea 2 — Married on a beach. Mine and my b/fs relationship have had a lot of water and beach motifs so I figured it’d be nice to go to the beach. However, we live inland, so this would be a destination wedding. That causes trouble with the families. My Aunt would throw a fly because she would say I picked the location so she couldn’t come, among other inconveniences. Plus, i have no idea where to start in a destination wedding.
Idea 3 — Rocker wedding. I’ve always been a bit of a punk rocker and it’s always been a dream of mine to live a little on the wild side, even if it is for just one night. I can see some winged eyeliner and a crazy dress.
Can someone help me sort out these very different ideas?
Thanks!

I think you’ll have the best memories if you pick the easiest thing out of the ones you like. It’s easier for you, it’s easier for your guests (big consideration), it will cause you less stress and fights and money, etc.
I have two philosophies about weddings: it’s not a magic spell, where you get everything perfect and you have a perfect life. Sometimes it seems like the more fuss people make about a wedding, the worse the marriage is! So don’t make "perfect" a goal – you’ll just sweat over trying to make it happen, and it won’t anyway!
Second, the best kind of wedding is the one that will give you, your family and your friends the best memories. I’d proceed with that as my goal, and simple is what I’d favor for that reason.
You’re punk rock idea sounds like a good party idea, but I’d save it for another time.
