I hate weddings where there's a huge 2 hour gap between the end of the ceremony and the start of the reception. If you're going to take up my entire precious saturday, at least give me drinks during that time.

I hate weddings where it's a distant relation or your sig. other's distant friend. Any wedding where the only person I know is the person I'm attending with is going to suck, and I'd rather be with my friends, or doing something that I need to do.

It's looking more like the number of people coming to my wedding will shoot past the capacity of the venue. Ruh roh.

Better yet, neither my family nor my in-laws minded--they were just happy for us.
Took another couple up north with us to act as witnesses. That's it. My mom's still bitter. It's been 13 years.

I was in Nashville this weekend for a cousin's wedding, and it was a very nice wedding.

We did find some Mason jars...and drinking vodka out of them was a lot of fun. Oooh if I had access to GRB that night, that would have been one hell of a drunk post.
