Oh god, yes - seating charts. Much more stressful than picking out a dress.
What'd you all order a dead guy for?

Well, you should make your link more descriptive, Gud, I didn't realize what you were linking to!
Fair point.

I'm kind of amazed people have weddings. I mean, the same way I'm amazed that people ride roller coasters or go sky-diving. I understand that people who do it probably enjoy the experience, but it looks like torture.

I would have a wedding. If I had someone to marry. And it were legal. Though the whole "OMG my family is insane" might tempt me to avoid some of that BS. Though given that whole lack of "someone to marry" and "legal" ...the family may not be a problem by the time/if ever those issues are solved.

Ann, that's a ferret.
I attended a wedding in the middle of a tropical storm. I don't know why the bride and groom chose Labor Day weekend, though I'd guess part of the reason was that a holiday weekend was easier for out-of-town guests. Luckily, indoor facilities had been arranged just in case.
While I'm not crazy about the name Satyana, there's something Slavic about Satyana Denisov.

Punishingly Intricate
I think Satyana is a pretty name. Here it talks about the origin (I figured it was Sanskrit):

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
We were just telling our wedding story at the SO's birthday party Sunday. It definitely had OMG his family is insane moments in it.

They should raise her on Rocky and Bullwinkle episodes and try to make her sound like Natasha.
Re: weddings. I'm moving closer and closer to a "Fly to Vegas and get matching tattoos the last night of the honeymoon" kind of wedding place, should I ever get hitched.

Now tagless for your comfort.
My biggest expenditures for the wedding were: Dress, flowers, photographer. The most important things to me were: Groom, alcohol, reception and whether it would be a good time for all. It pissed down rain but ws a hell of a party.
The groom worked out nicely, too.
Any woman that vested in a dress is in for a world of dissapointment. I have no idea where my dress is today.

Because books.

I don't know if it's the Scottish in my blood, but when I see women on that TLC show, Say Yes to the Dress, spending sometimes more than $20,000 on a dress, I just boggle. That's a down payment! Or a car! Or a college fund!
That said, everyone should do what makes them happy for their wedding day. I loved my wedding, we kept it low-key and very small (we were young and poor, too) and it was, as Cash said, a hell of a party and a very good time.
