I always thought NYE would be a great wedding day (although obviously expensive). It saves guests from some bullshit NYE party. You have the hall until midnight and then tell everyone to scram or follow to the after hours. Drink up for free covers the cost of having to cab it stay at a hotel. Sadly, no one seems to agree with me on this. Who cares if grandma Mabel breaks her hip falling on the ice.

Fuck that. Went to a NYE wedding a couple years ago and it SUCKED. All my friends were out doing something and I had to be at this damn wedding. Maybe if it was a close friend or something but it wasn't.
I think it takes huge balls to have your wedding on NYE. The worst Jerry. The worst.

Most weddings are interchangable memories to the guests unless they are close family. Hire the best photographer you can, not a friend of a friend, and make an effort to look good in your pictures. Have decent food and ridiculously good desserts. Nobody cares what the wine on the table is. insist on top shelf for at least 2 vodkas, 2 whiskeys, and a gin, call is fine for everything else. Dance with your mom and your mother-in-law.

Mostly the pictures and the Mom stuff. Nobody really cares about the rest of it.

My alcoholic aunt told me a week ago at our Christening party that they would be having top shelf.

. . . They had well liquor and a few Bottles of Crown Royal.


That's just bad form. You would be right to castigate them publicly for bringing shame upon your house. Anyway, you, me, JORR, and bigfan can go over all the finer points of this stuff with Frank at the fitting.

I've been alright with Panther for awhile. I don't think he's too bad. I think he said some fucked up things in this thread but it's clear Frank doesn't give a shit so whatever. Three songs is a pretty damn long slide show.

Douchebag's wedding sounded cool. IIRC they sorta planned it with the guests in mind.



Again, for the record, Im AGAINST this slideshow Frank. This is going to be a disaster!

Yeah. I really don't care what anybody thinks about the slideshow. Its our wedding, we want it, so we're doing it. Thats pretty much all that needs to be said. Couldn't care less about anybody else's opinion on such matters. Its our wedding so if we want things done a certain way, or on a certain day, or to a certain song, that is the way its going to be done and to hell with what anybody else thinks.

For those that have replied/PM'd with serious responses, thank you very much.

I want to let the record show that I don't agree with anything Panther has said in this thread.

Some of it hits home. The "loser parent-having" comment bothered me quite a bit. Her parents and mine work their asses off. There are a lot of hard-working people out there who aren't wealthy. I don't like the tone of some of what I read here.

single misanthropes should probably stay away from a groom a few days before the wedding

...Furthermore, this is what you open yourself up to when you talk in detail about your life on this board. I learned that lesson a few years ago.

People are idiots when it comes to judging others on the wedding. I wouldn't worry about it. There are people that would complain that the ice was too cold if everything else was perfect. Create the wedding that you've dreamed of since you were a little boy and hopefully people like Panther either don't go or accept that they don't matter on that day.

The slideshow thing is common these days.

I'm not going to apologize for showing sympathy to Panther and his family because he was financially unable to provide them with a proper vacation,

Wow! I was wondering why this thread was so long. My daughter gets married next May and guess what? Her and her Guy are footing most of the bill. Real life sucks and too often interferes with plans on saving for something like a wedding. We are paying for the Wedding Shower and tossing a couple of grand in a busta for her. What can't be overlooked is living at home rent free while making 35-40 k a year. It seems like that is a great headstart to pay for your own wedding to me.

My wife and I paid for our own wedding and that's how I wanted it. I was getting married and that way I could do whatever the hell I wanted (like keeping the bar open for an extra hour) without having to "clear it" with whoever.

I stopped taking money from my parents when I was 18 and moved out. You get used to your independence and freedom of choice at that point. Why would I want to take money from somebody else's parents? I had a job.

Unless things have changed and really gotten out of hand I seem to recall me and most of my closer friends broke even at least on the wedding with all the gifts and envelopes.

On my 25th wedding anniversary which we had at a hall with like 150 people,it ended costing us like 3 grand after the envelopes were counted up. Before somebody says that's 3 grand you could have gave your daughter, maybe but I payed for my wedding (with my wife) and no reason my kids can't foot the bill.

I paid my first time around.

We are paying this time. The lady's parents paid for most of her 2 sisters' weddings (everything except the dresses and bar bill), but my fiancee his a hell of a lot more independent than her 2 sisters. She was set that she didn't want them paying for stuff, but as they've pushed, she's relented a bit (splitting costs on a couple of things). More than anything, we wanted to pay because in the end, it's our party, and want it run without having to clear anything with anyone else.

this is probably the best post in this thread and a great point too.
Weddings are when meddlesome relatives and friends get more meddlesome and obnoxious.
Fuck all that.
