$3000.00
Holy cow. I have friends whose entire wedding cost little more than that.
My sister's (first) wedding cost about that. Her second one much less.
I, for one, wasn't looking forward to starting my day with a slaughter. Which, really, just goes to show how much I've grown

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Her birth parents will be reuniting for the first time since her conception AT THE WEDDING!
OMG. This just gets better and better. Aimee, you need to write a screenplay out of all of this. It would make one helluva trashy movie of the week.

Good lord Aimee. This is starting to have all the makings of an apocalyse. Anyone seen any omens recently?

Woe to the fucking wicked.
I was going to say take a camera, and make a documentary, but that should have started a while ago, but the screenplay thing works, too

Shit's all sorts of different now.
What I find particularly funny, is that they aren't having a bouquet/garter toss.
Why?
EVERYONE ELSE IS MARRIED!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I'm trying to picture the turbaned bridesmaids, but my brain is recoiling from the ridiculousness.
Let me get this straight. Bride is staging this elaborate and expensive production and she wants everyone in the production to not see each other backstage? Stilling pegging the crazyometer needle.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Yeuuch, does this totally skeev anyone else? The whole thing, but this shit in particular.
The idea, no. Hubs' brother married a woman with a 12YO daughter from a previous marriage. Daughter joined them for part of the ceremony, and she also received a ring. I thought it was a nice gesture to show that the marriage was a family thing.
Dressing daughter up as, and calling her, a second bride would have been a bit much.

The kids being part of the ceremony, I'm totally down with. But the dressing them up and mimicking bride and groom - sorry, no.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
My wedding dress cost $2000. My parents paid for it. I'm not going to apologize for that.
My parents also paid for the entire (female) wedding party to get our hair & makeup done (if they wanted to) the morning of the wedding. It was fun.
The wedding I'm (possibly) taking part in right now has made me vow to never to be a bridesmaid again, but I can't help but wonder if my sisters spent the weeks before my wedding talking like this behind my back. I really hope not. I think I was a good bride.
