Yay
I got invited to be a bridesmaid for the second time in my life. And…actually…it’s like my first wedding invite in two years…what’s up with my unlovable commitmentphobic friends? Yes, I’m looking at you, Alceste.
Oh, wait…you guys arent out there getting married and just not inviting me, right? Right? Right?
Yes, I’m looking at you.
So, my friend Pi — the newly engaged — said that she thinks she’s too old to have a “princess wedding” and this made me laugh because if I get married, even if I am 83, I am so having a princess wedding. But that’s mostly because I intend to marry the Prince of some small African nation.

For the love of all that is holy, elope and throw a small party when you return. This goes for everyone reading this. Everyone that has been married will tell you this. If they don’t then they are still trying to rationalize the TENS OF THOUSANDS of REAL DOLLARS they blew.

There are two kinds of acceptable weddings:
1. A formal affair, as large and as lavish as whoever’s paying for it can afford/is willing to go into hock for.
2. In Vegas, by Elvis.
Choose wisely - you only get 2 or 3 chances to have the wedding of your dreams.

Hear hear Chilly! As a formerly married denizen who scrimped and saved (and lived with my future mother-in-law in her 2BR apt.) for 2 whole years so my wife could have the wedding of her dreams only to divorce 5 years later because she wasn’t “happy”…what was I saying again?
Oh yeah, elope or have a very very very small affair. It’s just not worth the headache. Yes, your wife might bitch and moan for the rest of her life about the lavish affair you wouldn’t give her, but you will be able to block her out with the lifetime supply of earplugs you will be able to buy with your new windfall of cash.

I wanted to invite you but we had the wedding at a restricted club.
