i agree. the only part i care about is the open bar!
if i can't have that then there really is no reason to get married

if i ever do get hitched it will probably be on top of the bar at the red bar new years eve 2020

I think you have the right idea. Can I be invited? I will be in my prime then. :biggrin:

Only if she changes her mind from maybe, to of course your invited, what was I thinking? :biggrin:

I know...I feel like I'd want a fancy dress. And some fancy jewelry. And an insane bar and band. And crazy flowers. And an insane honey moon.

I have to marry rich.


No wonder Philippa loved you when she met you. The pair of you are twins separated at birth.

Out of all 3 Funns- Jfunn I see you getting married first. :floor:

BTW, I want to elope and come back to a huge party. I'd rather spend money on the party than a fancy dress.

There are as many different thoughts on this as there are brides. You are just as married if you spend $300, $3000 or $30,000. I truly believe there is no wrong or right way.

My best advice for newlyweds, spend the same time, careful planning and loving attention to detail that you spent on the wedding day, on your marriage. :D

You'll laugh. We built a house first, and I was so sapped from all that detail, that I let my gay pals do all my wedding planning. They sang at the church the Ave Maria, they arranged my flowers and design, and one did my hair. :rofl: and helped with table seating. Then for funn, they stuck one of the gay guys at a table with all single gulls.

I likey. I'm counting on the mofo wenches to plan mine. I'm just showing up and they are telling me where to stand.:wub: But for me less is more.

(Still don't have a date, so don't plan yet wenches.)

We had a vow renewal on the beach after Ivan, my neighbors put tikki torches on the beach with toule, I rented a mustang convertible, and put Just Re-Hitched, and we wore Hawaiian clothes, even the minister and we were barefoot and my SIL lent me a pretty creme dress (which I tried hard not to spill anything on) so I wore a big bib at dinner. :razz:

Well, I am in the wedding biz. Prices of a Wedding varies. Jewish Orthodox Weddings invite over 500 people and will most likely marry during the week, Reform Jewish weddings invite less than 200 people, A Christian wedding I would say is the least amount of people under 125. However, Indian Weddings (people from India) invite well over 600 and some invite well over 800 people, will book the most expensive night - Saturday night. The Bride buys 2 wedding dresses, A white over the top wedding dress and a beautiful India wedding dress to change into for the reception.
State to State should be taken into consideration A Sat night wedding for 200 people in NY could cost anywhere from $125 to $175 or more per person, where a Friday night wedding could cost $65 to $125 per person VS the mid west, the South, north west where the cost of living is much less and you get more for your money than you would north east. I think CALF, south FL and NY cost more all around.
