What's the downside of an open bar, nice meal and partying into the night with friends and family?
you just described every gender reveal party i've been to.
Into the night?
I thought those parties were typically like 2-7 afternoon affairs?
The question remains though, what's wrong with weddings?
the ones i've gone to have been in the evening. nice little get togethers. believe me, i'd rather be doing something else, but they aren't horrible.
weddings are a complete waste of my saturday afternoon/evening. sitting through some ceremony thats too long, to then sit around waiting for some catered meal thats ok but not good enough that you'd pay for at a restaurant, open bar, i dont drink enough for that to matter 1 lick. i can hang out with the people that i want to hang out with whenever in tshirt and shorts. my wife goes to weddings all the time, i don't and nothing she tells me about what happened at them ever makes me wish i had.
the only redeeming thing about weddings is cake. i love cake. its the only thing that could entice me to attend. i have 2 close to the family friends whose weddings i'll attend when its time. outside of that the next weddings i'll go to will be my childrens hopefully.
for reference, we are hanging out with friends almost 3-4 times a week in some form or fashion. so i'm not a hermit who sits in the basement drinking alone. i'm a sociable guy. my wife thinks its weird that i don't like weddings.
i also say no when asked to be in weddings which happens infrequently now but was a regular occurrence in my mid to late 20's.
