The last one I attended, I arrived, left my gift at the registry, schmoozed for 15 minutes, then snook out and left.


I hate weddings. Marriages and families are so secretive and private now, that this whole community sharing idea on wedding day is vulgar in light of it.

I like sneaking to the back of whatever venue the reception is happening in & screwing the bridesmaids.
That's always alot more fun than tinkling glasses together every fifteen minutes so that the newlyweds make out in front of everybody.
I dunno,
I guess that when it comes to displays of affection between a man & a woman, I prefer much more to be a participant than a bystander.

What I believe should be an intimate ceremony with those you love sharing in the moment of the person you are pledging your life and love to has, these days, turned more into a circus party to prove to folks who don't even care about you that you can put a bigger, prettier, expensive show at YOUR expense.

I've been a bridesmaid one time and a maid of honor and I swear it was all just too much. Unnecessary drama goes on and you wouldn't even believe how folks give their unwanted suggestions when they aren't paying for nothing. I'm not interested in being in nobody else's wedding but my own (which would be small) and even then, I'd rather spend more money on the honey moon than the wedding itself.

i got married on a beautiful island in fiji... a few guests were there, but not many... on the day of my wedding i got up and went snorkeling around a spectacular reef... then chilled on the beach

we were determined our wedding was going to be about what it was supposed to be about

it really depends on the wedding for me... i've been to some great ones, but many have been a drag

I always have a good time at weddings.

Funny how all manner of smut gets celebrated these days but weddings get frowned upon???

I wanted to go to the Justice of the Peace and be done with it. That didn't happen.

Our ceremony took all of about 12 mintues, short and simple. A Maide of Honor and Best man, that's all she wrote. The reception, we partied our asses off. Since my mother side of the family is so big it was mostly a true family affair. In high-sight I'm glad we did the formal thing; something for our kid to add the family history when we are long gone. As long as a wedding starts on time has good music, and has a bar, its all good.

I've been a bridesmaid three times but never a bride. I guess I jinxed myself when I caught the bridal bouquet each time.

I enjoy weddings. The food is usually good, and usually the receptions turn into full blown jamming parties. The hokey tinkling glasses and kissie kisses gets old quick though.

Weddings are fine if you like and know who's getting married.

Lot's of you are sour pusses.

That is all.

Looove weddings....

Free champagne.

Just about everyone's in a good mood.

Good, often great food.

Free beer.

Dancing.

Free champagne.

Pretty women dressed their best.

What's not to love?

The best one was when I got lucky with a hot bridesmaid in amongst the vines of a winery.

Then I snuck my skinny ass through a slot window into the pool area after it was closed, opened the front door for her and we got busy again til break a dawn when an employee opened the place up.

Later we realised I had lost my Ray Bans and she had lost her panties amongst the vines. Some lucky grape picker must have gone on to find the stash

I've been to 2 weddings that I really loved.

Both were laidback and fun.


The rest was awfull. Horrific. Horrible.


I'm happy I'm trough that fase. It's been a couple of years when there were marriages every other week.

Then all the babies.

So, now it's waiting for the divorces and unfortunate deaths (happily I'm not in that fase yet)


I'm very behind on all these fases.


I'm dating the rebound men who did not go down that altare.

I'm being a bridesmaid for my friend in October, i'd rather peel off my own skin that do it. She knows this.

Been in a wedding once. Been to plenty of them. Can take or leave them. When/if I get married, justice of the peace and a big party.

Go tell it to the judge... tell it to the judge.

Betcha 15 bridesmaids and groomsmen.... a theme titled wedding.

Gonna make Star's Jones wedding look like a hole in a wall affair.

In general I like weddings. I can see being annoyed w/ostentatious displays I suppose. It's a party. There's generally good food, music and people you like.

Now Ms. Trina, you know me better than that.

Loved mine, beach, blue water, best man.

In the bar until 30 mins before the ceremony, back in it 30 mins afterwards.

It was idillic.

You might meet Visionnaire in one of the back rooms.

He makes the bridesmaids' wedding experience one to remember..

The last wedding I was in, I was one of 12 bridesmaids. Utterly ridiculous. I couldn't wait until that circus was over.

Yeah...it's gonna be 15 ORGERS serving as bridesmaids & groomsmen...in a Prince-themed wedding.

Complete with "symbol"-shaped wedding cake.

I think they are a total waste of money but they seem to make people happy so

If I were to get married (and that's a massive if) I wouldn't bother with a ceremony. Although, the in-laws would probably disapprove of that as well.

Hey there's still time for you. Especially if you come to Seattle.
