Dream Wedding Venue?

[tiffanistarr]

And there were many, many other traditions I eschewed. I also kept everything short and sweet because I'm not a party person. No dancing, no big meal, no bouquet or garter tossing. Everything was on my husband's and my terms and we were out of there in under 2 hours.

omg i forgot about the disgusting garter tossing. The whole veil symbolizing the “virginity” status of the bride icky. Weddings as a whole are just so deep rooted in misogyny and religion that it just grosses me out.

If i were to do the whole ceremony and reception thing, i think i would do a lot of the things you did. Very contemporary, quick, easy no frills. I don’t entirely hate the idea of being walked down the aisle, it’s just the whole giving you away thing that is so gross.

I also just hate when people try and convince people that they should do or have certain things at their wedding. I’ve seen so many of my friends just suffer through the planning because friends and family just wouldn’t stop giving ideas and opinions. I don’t think I could handle that.

Now, i have been to some alternative weddings that were very free spirited and non traditional. They were a lot of fun, but damn imagine feeding and providing drinks for more than like 4 people???? lol no shot!

I think you did a great job with your wedding by standing your ground and doing it how you felt it should be done. I don’t think i would have the strength to speak up. I need to work on that! Thanks for sharing though! It makes me happy to see people breaking the old gross traditions of weddings!

Not planning on getting married, I don't think I'm pretty enough to be with anyone. But if I did, then my wedding will be medieval theme with fantasy and maybe some zelda in it. Obviously it will be at a castle. Kinda thinking maybe i'll do something like that for my birthday. But don't know which future birthday.

Honestly I've never really thought about it! I see myself either getting married by the justice of the peace or like, in somebody's backyard lol.
