-t, I hadn't heard of the bride circling the groom before - what a beautiful bit of ceremony and symbolism. Darn, I wish my religion had as many sweet little touches to the marriage ceremony. Too many of the ones that are there are so steeped in property transfer rather than meeting of souls.
I like the way the walls go out. Gives you an open feeling. Firefly is a good design. People don't appreciate the substance of things. Objects in space. People miss out on what's solid.

Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
We have no song. Should we have a song?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
If I get married, I think we'll walk out of the church to the tune of "Kung Fu Fighting." And everybody else would have to be Kung Fu fighting, because that's what the song says.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
My aunt walked down the aisle to "Jerusalem of Gold." I love that melody, but the song kind of has too much political baggage now.

“Not dead yet!”
At our wedding, we walked down the aisle to the pavanne from the Orlando soundtrack.
We used the score from Branagh's Henry V. "The Day is Yours" for me to walk down the aisle and "St. Crispin's Day/Battle of Agincourt" as we said our vows and walked back down together.
I put my foot down about no damned Mendelssohn and no damned Wagner at my wedding.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I also affirm the wonderfulness that is Liese.

Huh. I guess if I thought about it, our song would have to be "In Buildings" by Possum Dixon, but there's no way I could walk down the aisle to that.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
We are also songless, and I am fine with that.

I love this visual! Youtube it and it will go viral like that!
My marriage had two songs. Fleetwood Mac's Landslide (mine) and Elton John's Tiny Dancer.(his)
We should have given that more thought, in retrospect.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Ours is "Birdhouse in Your Soul," and we totally would have played it at our ceremony, but we didn't know we could bring our own music to the elopement.

I seriously considered that, but I had my brother-in-law play something original on the bass recorder instead.
