Weddings are boring..................................unless I'm invited, and then they're awesome.
I've been to a few varied weddings in my lifetime and thoroughly enjoyed every one.

I still can't see why you have to spend so much money on them. As a guest I'd be happy with a jam butty and a cup of tea.

I think the thought that somebody actually wanted you to attend their wedding should suffice.
Anything else is a bonus.

FOOD
and a bit of crying
( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Mon 7 Mar 2011, 13:44, Reply)

As much as I go on about hating the idea of marriage etc, it is nice to be invited to a wedding and see two people madly in love.

( girlinthehole, Mon 7 Mar 2011, 13:47, Reply)

Oh completely.
Makes me cry my eyes out. I loved seeing my mates so happy and giggly, and their parents saying nice things about them.
I knew them both before they got together, and it was something everyone could see was obvious, but it took them ages to get together, and then six years later there they were getting married.

Out of all my old mates there is only me and my bezzy mate in New Zealand who hasn't got married and had kids.
Although she is happily settled in a relationship.

Roota, I don't really like weddings, never been to one I've enjoyed.
I came up with an idea on the tube today, I'm friendly with a local posh-cafe owner, I'm going to bake him something different every week and ask him to put it in his cafe with a blackboard saying "Pauly Pop's Weekly Special: [whatever I'm making]". I don't really want any money, I might do something that says "Pay what you think it's worth, it's all going to [charity] anyway".

I really want to do this =D

This
If I were to get married - which I won't - I'd rather have a massive piss up and feed everyone food I've cooked myself, before spending the money I would have spent on the wedding on travelling the world, and I could get married on a beach in the sunshine wearing a pair of jeans and a bikini top. I really don't see why you should have to spend thousands of pounds on just one day, mostly on other people.
But you know. That's just me.

There is much, much more appeal
in spending a couple of months travelling and getting wed somewhere sandy and sunburnt, than there is in having just one day feeling uncomfortable in a very expensive, very nice dress that you can't even wear again.

Plus I hate being the centre of attention.
Despite my obvious internet attention seeking.

Ugh I hadn't considered that aspect of it
it'd be a bit like having to give a presentation, all those staring eyes. I hate that.
(berk, Mon 7 Mar 2011, 14:10, Reply)

Unless, you know, it's not uncomfortable
you feel fabulous, everyone treats you like the most important person in the world, all your best friends and family are there, you're in a fantastic place that you normally couldn't afford, eating lovely food and drinking nice wine then everyone has a great big party and dances around to celebrate the fact that you and your partner are totally in love and are going to spend the rest of your lives together.

But yeah, you're totally right.

Single, lonely, but totally right.

this coming from the man who thinks that a cool way to spend money is on stuff for the house
and a fence for the garden.

if this is what marriage does to you, i'll amputate my wedding ring finger right here, right now with this de-stapler.
( rachelswipe with a fork, Mon 7 Mar 2011, 14:13, Reply)

there isn't much better than spending money on things that make your life better
every day.
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Mon 7 Mar 2011, 14:15, Reply)

yes
but if i ever get to the stage where i think that a fence for the garden is that something that makes my life better - or more better than lovely presents for the other half/family/friends, going out to hot bars and delicious restaurants, fancy haircuts, new clothes, shiny cars, even sponsoring a goat to go to school in africa - it will be time to reserve my zimmer frame at the old giffers home!
( rachelswipe with a fork, Mon 7 Mar 2011, 14:18, Reply)

That's because you don't have a garden
but I do, and I like being in it, and unfortunately when you have a garden and it contains a fence you're duty bound to look after said fence when it rots and starts to fall down.

So that's what I'm going to do, I'm also going to redecorate my spare room so when I go in there I can go "Awwww, what a nice spare room, I will enjoy my time in here, and am happy in the knowledge that the work I did here added value to my house rather than me quite literally pissing that money down the drain in some cunt filled bar".

But since I also occasionally spend time pissing money down the drain in cunt filled bars I don't really see the problem here.

How odd
I just watched a video of a guy pissing in a cunt. Money was probably exchanged afterwards.

To each their own, Al
I'm not saying you - or anyone else - shouldn't have gotten married, and I'm glad you had a lovely day but it's not something I have any interest in doing. Or if by some amazing chance I do ever meet someone who changes my mind, I imagine I would still have no interest in getting married in a 'traditional' way.

You can say 'Jeff shouldn't have got married' if you like, and you'd be right.

It's just a nice party with you and your loved ones and it doesn't have to be massive, but being served nice food is nice because that's what I do whenever I have some spare money.

my friend did the biggest white wedding i've ever seen when she got married
new years eve, marquee, fireworks, champagne like water, the lot. they split up after 3 months.

when she got married again, they had nobody there, but then had a massive party for everybody.

both were pretty special!
