Warm take: every marriage after the first should be a courthouse wedding. If it's one person's first, maybe a less than 30 people reception should be thrown. I don't know why I think this
I got married on a mountain when I was homeless so I got incriminated against by the whole police insubstrate
Because if a “once in a lifetime event” happens more than once in a lifetime, it starts loosing meaning?
Also: I had a courthouse wedding and it was so special! Years later, when we could afford it, we had the “wedding reception”, only the big party. Way less stressful and a lot of fun. Totally recommend. Added bonus: I have two days to look back to
Thats what my best friend did. Her ceremony was super gay and mega cute, I'm really happy I was able to go in spite of some medical issues making it complicated
well at least they can just tighten it up to regain the meaning
losing. loose is stuff that isn't tight. losing is to take away.
Because they cost tens of thousands of dollars and force everyone you know to make room in their schedules go out of their way to put up with all the pomp and circumstance while making you the center of attention and feigning sentimentality, possibly also with the assumed obligation of bringing an expensive gift?
I swear some people just get married for the wedding and then get divorced as soon as the honeymoon is over, rinse and repeat. It's like they're addicted to being the center of attention and can't get over the fact that no one really cares about them, and this is the only real way for them to have a captive audience.
Yeah, that's what you get when you teach people to want a wedding. I've met lots of people like that, they don't care who they're marrying but just the fact that they're getting married. Why did we decide the partnering event is more important than whom you're getting partnered with?
Anything after 2 and you’re in “Vegas Chapel With Elvis Impersonator” territory.
