Not reading all this shite, but the main thing is, if you are going to get married and invite people, you provide a free bar or enough wine at the table for everyone to get hammered, or seriously, just don’t bother.

Last Vegas, $200, 7 minutes, Englebert Humperdinck impersonator witness only (not on impersonation duty). Got it out the way quick so we could get on with with having fun.

Haha!! This is incredible.

I seem to be the only person on the planet who wants a wedding and not a marriage. Wedding = getting all yer mates and family in the same place for a massive fuck-off party while he looks fit in an expensive suit and you look fit in a fancy dress. Everyone gets hammered and loves you and gives you presents, you get to dance to banging tunes all night and get a bonk in at the end of the evening, then go on a massive holiday and come back to find out which of your friends from different groups hooked up. Solid! What kind of weirdo wouldn’t think that that was awesome??

But I don’t like the thought of legally binding myself to a person for eternity (even if you can slough them off with a divorce if necessary) and I think I’d feel really suffocated by that finality. Also my family is very traditional and would be horrified by the sort of wedding that would make me happy and the moaning from them that I’d have to put up with would really ruin my buzz. So I don’t actually want to get hitched although I could maybe be swayed if he really wanted to do it (on the condition of there being no traditional bullshit). No babies though.

Although the guys I fancy who fancy me always go off me really quickly so it’s all moot :+1:

Yeah. That’s what it’s all about. Most of our mates who got married did similar, so I feel it’s only right. Giving a bit back.

Naaah, not after 10+ pints. Was like trying to get a cat in a bath.

And he’s too busy right now to discuss this topic. Or any other topic.

I only decided I wanted to get married after I realised this didn’t have to be the case. It’s weird that people see all these marriages ending in divorce for whatever reason and thinking “yeah but that won’t be me”. I’m lucky that the TV agrees that you can’t promise to love someone forever and we never made any promises like that. We obviously hope we will, but falling out of love and/or getting divorced doesn’t mean the relationship was a bad idea or failed.

Totally agree on weddings, I understand why a big wedding isn’t for everyone but having a weekend where you get to meet up with pals you don’t see often, getting pissed and wearing a nice frock, what’s not to like?

FWIW, still don’t think marriage is necessary or even that important but I’m glad I did it myself

Mind if I forward this on to all of my friends? Tight fisted hippy cunts the lot of them.

Been covered by others upthread but I’m not keen on marriage given its history as a social institution. But my long term gf is adamant that she wants to get married. So I guess I’m going to have to bite the bullet and go along with it.

Think the weird thing is that because of societal expectations combined with my views on the topic she probably won’t propose, which means for it to happen I’m going to have to do a lot of the initiating for something I don’t really like.

To clarify, it’s not that I don’t want to commit - I’ve already said that barring an unlikely unforeseen turn of events I’d like to spend the rest of my life with her. I just don’t feel enthusiastic about the expectation to prove it in a ceremony that started off as a property trade and still continues to have concerning undertones today.

Struggling to get a pussy wet… EYYYY-OHHHH.

Tbh i have no idea, clearly not one of their hits…

seems like too much effort for me and i’m quite shy
most of you earn too much and spend it on stupid stuff though so why not weddings
reckon they’re great for the self esteem

like i basically cry with joy when someone good sends me a birthday message on facebook. imagine them travelling half the world to watch you get married :blush: :blush: :blush:

We’ve been married for five years. We got married after being together seven months (though we had known each other since we were teenagers). We decided to do it, registered to get married and bought rings (cheap rings, hers now replaced with something nicer, mine still going) on the same day. Received a call from the registry office to say they could do it in two weeks’ time, and we said yes. Didn’t tell our parents, grabbed a couple of friends and went for it. Bowling, meal out, home. My only regret is we picked the wrong friends, as we don’t talk to those people anymore.

We got married as a commitment to each other. Everything else around it seemed unnecessary. It was absolutely the right thing to do for us, and our commitment has got us through some tough times. I love being married, I don’t like weddings.
