People agree with me! I'm all about simple being better. I guess if the bride and groom are happy, it's a good wedding, but I've been to some where they're so busy worrying about little crap that I don't see howo they could be having a good time! BTW, I got married in Vegas. 50 people came with us and I planned the entire thing over the phone. Easy as pie. (MMMM, pie). But I like what Colel said, people should invest more in the marriage than the wedding! Yay! People agree with me!

Neat topic! Especially as you point out for romace writers! The summer before I got married I was in 6 weddings. I wasn't a huge fan before then simply from the cost standpoint and being that I didn't have much...well ... anyhow, after that I said no way! The bride and groom never see each other all day as their too busy putting out 'fires' and taking care of 'issues' and making sure things go off without a hitch. So when we got married I said simple. We got married one week from the day we decided and instructed - no gifts - only a couple of friends and family (parents only if they could make it - I really didn't care if they did as then they felt they could have an opinion on everything and I didn't want to hear that opinion) and we got married in a court house. Simple bands - (cheap) - No tuxies(cheap) - a dress from a shop that I altered to fit(cheap) and no reception(cheap) We both went to work the following day (though we did stay at a hotel that night) and between me and you - I believe we have a better chance of *making it* then those who spend a fortune on the single day. Why so many people don't invest more into the actual marriage rather then that day I'll never understand. Cool subject Emma! I believe in true love and in the vows I took but not because the whole world saw them but because I said them to my hubby. The one that really counts. Thanks for this interesting line. Have a great evening! Cole Hi Emma! Neat topic! Especially as you point out for romace writers!

But then again if it's an open bar...whoo and hoo. And even if it is...there are ways to work around that. I don’t like going to weddings mostly because I never have a date!

I don't mind weddings too much. I guess it depends on whose it is. It seems I only enjoy the ones of really close friends and family. My own was actually a nice experience. Of course hubby and I dated for eleven years, so it was a long time coming. But he took a lot of the responsibilty too and we took a lot of easy routes and kept to comfortable budget. So I guess that made a lot of difference. Wow, what a magnificent picture!

I've been waiting for Mr. Pink to get around to proposing, but because I want to be married, have babies, build a family. I'm not looking forward to the wedding part of it. I have no desire to dive into the family war, worry about rubber chicken, or spend thousands of dollars for a party. If I had my way, it would be me and Mr. Pink on a beach in the carribean. My mom, however, is freaking out at the idea... I'm dreading the battle. It's nice to know I'm not the only one. :) I’m so glad you said that… me too.
