Saying no to lots this year, but I am going to a bent wedding
( , Tue 8 Apr 2014, 8:56, 2 replies, latest was 12 years ago)

Hen weekends, travel, hotels, extra shoes all add up. My cousins wedding cost me close to £600.
Don't get me wrong, I love my friends and am very happy to have been asked. Hmmmm I just sound a bit moany here don't I?

Can't people just have an evening in the pub?
I went to Budapest a few months ago for a hen. That I didn't mind though as I organised it all so was sensible regarding costs. Plus, it was hilarious.

There's something a bit too LAD about stag weekends for my tastes. Plus I ALWAYS set off the metal detector and have to get my willy out in that body scanner thing :(

Budapest next time he gets married then? Cheap and beautiful and fun.
The best bit was the bride's face when she realised where we were going. She had no idea until we got to the departure gate.

Luckily we don't all spend £100k on weddings

the wedding industry employs a LOT of people, which is good, but imma guess that's not such a comfort to battered's father in law right now. or my friend's dad, who spent £250k on his daughter's new years eve wedding, which included a massive firework display and a 3 day free bar in the marquee. by april, they'd split up.
cracking new year's eve party, mind.

I think two of the couples won't last.
I really hope I'm wrong as I love them all dearly. But yeah marrying a gay man wasn't the smartest thing my female cousin has done.

but people forget that some people get married loads of times 66% of my mums marriages have ended in divorce and shes just one person. So idiots don't learn after the 4th time. So yes Basically that stats are skewed because some people get divorced several times whereas others are too scared to leave their wives in case they beat them harder. Out of those 10 weddings I bet only 3 will get divorced and then remarry and two of them will divorce again and again and again because they are whores.
