I wouldn't have bridesmaids
I don't have a compatible 'look' and there would be murder over who was the chief bridesmaid blah blah.

That's something I don't have to worry about
There had to be something good about doing it Spanish way.

My oldest friend from school has made it clear that she thinks marriage is a load of bollocks
and she has utter disdain for it. That makes me not want to include her in my wedding line up because I don't want someone there who thinks the whole thing is stupid, but she's one of my best friends so I want her to be there, which sucks. She can sing so I might ask her to sing with another friend for the aisle-walking bit.

I've put too much thought into this considering I'm no one's fiancee...

I'm not anyone's fiancee either
But you can't help looking at other people's weddings and thinking "Well I'd do this, this and this..."

My 'best friend' is an obnoxious cow and would have an argument with someone who she knew I really liked. My other 'best friend' is a snob of the highest order (a cover-up for her total commonness).
I have other friends I really love but it would cause murder.

I definitely think that I should be involved in your wedding

In what role do you see yourself?
Wedding planner?
Father of the bride?
Covers band?
( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Tue 22 Jun 2010, 9:48, Reply)

something important
father of the bride might be pushing it a bit though.

This is what I hate.
I'm not a big fan of marriage but a wedding should be all about the couple and not the politics of friends and family.

I was reading a sailing blog a bit ago
and the couple on there got married on a beach in the bahamas out of the blue. They weren't even engaged. They flew their parents out urgently the night before and found a local priest type guy to do it, then posted all the pictures on line, saying "sorry friends, we couldn't help it". Half of me would love to do that, but the other half wants a massive fuck off show.

A couple of Mark's friends did the same
But in China (she's Chinesse)

The friends are still complaining after years that he owns the a stag do.

a friend of a friend was in sri lanka
and met a guy, fell in love, and got married in a little sri lankan village. apparently that wasn't enough to satisfy immigration to here or something, so they went to the next village over and had another wedding but with more criteria met. That wasn't good enough either, and for various reasons they ended up getting married 5 or 6 times.

My mother lost a friend of 20 years over my little sister's wedding.
She could not comprehend that it was not my mother's fault that my sister had not invited her, the twat.
( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Tue 22 Jun 2010, 10:06, Reply)

Not a very good friend, eh?

(Aberracion Life's getting very complicated, but a lot of fun., Tue 22 Jun 2010, 10:09, Reply)

Apparently not.
I thought they were quite close (as did my mother). Just goes to show, eh? You never truly know anyone.

that sort of thinking is just completely incomphrensible
it's Hollyoaks thinking. fucking stupid bint. anyone is better off without someone that stupid in their life.

She made fantastic gravy.

( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Tue 22 Jun 2010, 10:26, Reply)

in that case
why the fuck wasn't she invited to the wedding?

my mrs isn't having any I think
other than maybe our nieces
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Tue 22 Jun 2010, 9:45, Reply)

Nieces is nice
But It all costs so fuck 'em. I don't have proper nieces anyway.
( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Tue 22 Jun 2010, 9:47, Reply)

I think they are more likely to be flower girls or something
the mrs doesn't want a train on her dress or anything so won't need people to hold it and other bridesmaidy tasks

I want there to be no kids at my wedding
but people will probably kick off if I say that.

Go to Vegas
Find a Drive-thru wedding chapel ministered by a midget Elvis impersonator.
Done.

Same here
All my friends and cousins have just had a baby or will have it soon. That means around 8 babies on my wedding at least.
(Aberracion Life's getting very complicated, but a lot of fun., Tue 22 Jun 2010, 10:14, Reply)

I don't want kids at my wedding.
I concede that my baby will have to be there but I don't really like tolerating other peoples' children. Exceptions will be for toddlers of people travelling from overseas but we are already very limited on numbers so they don't get a proper seat at the table. Yeah, I'm mean.

my bro and the mrs' sister both have newish sprogs
