I intend to have my wedding the traditional way. Going to a neighboring village and abducting the first female I see.

Trivia: Apparently this is where the term "best man" comes from. The groom needs to bring the best fighter from his village to back him up during the abduction, and to stand by his side during the wedding itself as a bodyguard.

I'm convinced that the whole "wedding industry" is just an experiment that got out of hand in attempt to cause psychotic breakdowns among engaged couples. Like a Milgram experiment, with lace.

I'm way late on this, but Best Wishes to you and Jake! Just remember that no matter what you wear, who comes to the ceremony, or if your parents and in-laws fight like cats & dogs - at the end of your wedding day you will be married to the one person who you want to be with more than any other.
 
And you will most likely fall asleep as soon as you get into your room.
I've heard so many people tell me absolutely nothing intimate happened on their wedding nights. Both the brides and the grooms were so physically and emotionally exhausted, they slept for like two days straight.
 
Yeah... all of that stuff about how exciting and intimate the wedding night is? My wife and I collapsed into bed, not to be seen for a day and a half. We were at a really nice, relaxing hotel, and we didn't leave our room except to occasionally refill the ice bucket so we could keep our booze cold.

I suspected as much, but damned if I'm not going to try to be alert. It's been a crazy-busy semester, an wedding or not, there's simply no better way to top off the day. ^_^

Thank y'all again. I'd like all your posts but I can't quite figure out how on tapatalk.
 
There was a reason that I opted to go to the Magistrate Court judge and just have it performed.
Just what I tell my girlfriend! Get to the office, get it done and tell the close family to drop by for a cup of coffee or two.
Her aunt actually did this, wedding in secret early on christmas day and being at home a married couple when all the relatives called on the phone who had just reveived their christmas-and marriage-cards in the mailbox.
 
I don't remember my wedding being very difficult. Perhaps I have nostalgia. We had and out doors ceremony in my parents back yard. We wrote what we wanted to officiant to say and wrote our own vows. I walked down the aisle/stone pathway to a song from Soul Caliber 3.

Then it was over. The most stressful part of the day was the fact the my husband to be shower up 3 minutes before the start of the ceremony.

No one was that interested in my wedding until the day it happened!
 
Threads like this make me want to go to the courthouse to get hitched, followed by inviting my guests over for about $1000 worth of alcohol, pizza, and cake.

Clearly, the answer is to hump like rabbits all day before the ceremony. Should help with stress levels, too.

Ravenpoe that is your answer to everything.

"Global warming? Hump all day like rabbits!"
"Nuclear war? Hump all day like rabbits!"
"Rabbit overpopulation? Hump all day like rabbits!"
 
I really don't have anything to add to the conversation that hasn't already been said but I still want to wish you a happy nuptials. :)
 
Just keep the big picture in your mind. It's really easy to get caught up in all the details and the nitpicks from anyone and everyone, but when it's all over it will all have gone by so fast that it'll be almost a complete blur, and all you'll be left with are pictures and good memories.
 
I have nothing of value to add either. but, again, happy wishes.

Also, if you want to ensure an intimate wedding night, don't have sex prior to the wedding for about three weeks. Just saying....

This is my in-laws Christmas and I love them for it. Every year, $20 gag gift and a 3 day bender to celebrate the season.
 
Congrats on the getting-married thingie. Also congrats on not going on a murderous rampage (yet).
As others have said: don't worry and don't let people drive you crazy. The day itself, you won't notice wether or not the ribbons the flowers are tied together with are properly colour-coordinated with the seating cushions... Hopefully :-P
