You're going to hate Hong Kong...

They have big ass parties for weddings, and instead of giving gifts, guests give money for the bridge and groom.

LMAO!

I hadn't said anything for the longest time... where the hell did I get back involved?

Haha!

P.S. If I had unlimited amount of dough to throw around I would have a super expensive wedding. But since both myself, and the guy I will marry will likely be in debt from school loans, I doubt that will be the case unfortunately.

Ah well, to each their own

My sister has planned and done as much as she can within reason for the time she has after work and everything, and she is still spending 10k on her wedding. She took out a loan and they will pay it off pretty quickly, but it really isn't easy to spend less than 5k. She saved a ton of money with venue and minister shit, didn't spend a ton on invitations, didn't invite a million people, and she tried to keep expenses down as much as possible.

My best friends sister on the other hand, has almost 500 people coming, and is broke. What gives.


Posted by winston on Aug-05-2008 04:46:

10K? Cheap, bro.


Posted by RandomGirl on Aug-05-2008 04:52:

In reality, my wedding would probably cost a lot if I did everything I wanted to. But if I don't have extra cash, or I need the money for more important things, I am willing to forgo a bunch of that frivolous stuff.

Well I know people who have spent 5x that, so in the grand scheme of things it is "cheap" in the relative sense. If/when I get married, I want under 100, preferably 75 max. I really want it to be my closest friends and family (what I have) and not just a giant gathering of all these people.

You do realize that proper etiquette is to send a gift if you cannot attend, right?

what etiquette, they don't even know what the word means

ok, I've been MIA for a little while but I just caught up on everything.

First of all, being a Jew... I'd like to say to the moron who said "shame she's marrying a jew" that you have no fucking idea what you're talking about. A wedding is like the ONE thing we BLOW money on.

And Theresa... You're so, dumb. I have no other word for it. A "one day event"? I don't know about you, but I only plan on being married once... so I'm going to go all out on my wedding. That's one day I want to remember as the BEST day of my life, for the rest of my life. I'm not a girl who went to prom, or to homecoming, or any of that crap, but a wedding is different. It's me and my man pledging to love and be faithful to each other for the rest of our lives. That's a HUGE day. That's me saying I'll be by your side when your penis is old and wrinkly and your rib cage pokes out, and I'm still looking hot. That's saying I'll spoon feed you if anything ever happens to you. That's THE big day. I want my family there, my friends there, and anyone who would like to be there to celebrate the union of me with someone else.

And yes, his name WAS printed on the invitation. And if you read the other posts of mine referring to how said "bff" has been behaving towards me lately, you'd see me not wanting to go has a lot more to it than just my bf not being invited.

Mind you - THEY are not even paying for the wedding - their parents are. SO, since the parents OFFERED to ALREADY PAY FOR all of the guests and their dinners, I don't see how chopping out 30$ makes any sense.

And yes, I accepted being MOH before I knew I was sick. And then I sat down and talked with her and explained that with the costs of my treatments, and the effect the treatments have on me, I wasn't sure if I was going to be able to physically stand there that day. (Mind you - the MOH duties are to pay for the bachelorette party, pay for the dress (300$) the shoes she picked out (150$) pay to get my hair done where she asked (200$) pay to get my make up done (50$), I offered to pay for half of the flowers (which I already did, and that put me out 300$) I already gave them an engagement gift (a car, yes, an old one, but I gave it to them for free b/c the guy was w/o vehicle), I have to buy a bridal shower gift, and a wedding gift)

For those of you jackass' that think cancer's not a good excuse, I'd like you to live one day in Frenchie & I's shoes with all the medications we take and the surgeries we have. You wouldn't be able to fucking make it. And standing around and carrying things in 100 degree heat in the middle of a Florida summer, is NOT healthy for someone who is on such heavy meds.

So yea, a big fuck you to you assholes.
