Getting hitched snoopcester Send a noteboard - 04/04/2011 03:54:20 PM
1. 'Did you ever attend a wedding? (if not, prob this survey isn't for you)


Yes

2. Do you like weddings?


They're usually fun

3. Did you ever organize a wedding? (Was it your own?)


Not yet:P

4. What was the best wedding you ever went to, and why was it so good? (cue for: my own, because I love my spouse so much! real intention of question is that I want to know what made the party fun)


Hmm. Probably the best one was when a couple of friends got married on one of the Greek islands a few years ago. Because it was out the country they could get away with just inviting people they liked to that and having a reception for everyone back home.
So it worked out as a really fun week long holiday for a group of people who get on well with the wedding in the middle of it in a really pretty setting.

5. What kind of wedding would you like to throw yourself (if you were to marry at some point)?


Something similarish:P

6. Do you like traditional weddings, or ones that do something unique/funny?


Both can be good. I get fustrated with people who get married and don't even have control over who they invite because the bride's parents are control freaks (knew someone who only got to invite 10 friends to his own wedding and another friend now who is trying to juggle invites, including inviting people he knows can't coe so he can get someone else to come at the last minute, as he is only allowed a set number of friends).
It all just seems so stupid when it is their own wedding and it ends up being as much, or more, about making a controlling parent happy.

She wouldn't be dramatic there, that would be fine. nossy - 05/04/2011 05:11:47 PM 747 Views
If you don't want drama, don't invite family. Seriously, listen to the voice of experience here. *NM* Macharius - 04/04/2011 04:07:42 PM 361 Views
you are not factoring in the drama of not inviting family. Camilla - 04/04/2011 04:32:51 PM 667 Views

In your opinion. For me, as an example, it is the people I care for and respect that matter. snoopcester - 05/04/2011 10:26:53 AM 591 Views
