WE'RE NOT HAVING A RECEPTION, NO DINNER, GET OVER IT.
Everyone who I tell about me and Rob getting married, they ask about our plans, and I tell them.
They ask if we're having a reception.  I say no.
They ask if we're having a small dinner afterward.  I say no.
And they go AAAW BUT YOU SHOULD REALLY HAVE ONE.

SHUT THE FUCK UP.
FEED YOUR OWN DAMN ASS BEFORE YOU COME TO THE WEDDING.
YOU'RE INVITED TO SEE ME AND MY SOULMATE WED, NOT TO SHOVE YOUR FUCKING FACE.
I'M NOT PAYING FOR SOME BULLSHIT DINNER SO YOU CAN SHOVE YOUR FACE FULL OF FOOD,  I DON'T CARE WHAT TRADITION SAYS.

Fucking fuck.

Our plans are, go, get married, maybe just Rob and I will go out to eat somewhere nice together, all romantic and nice, and that's that.  And come home and lose my virginity.  That's the night's plans.  That's it.

Be glad I'm inviting you at all, seriously, and to everyone else who isn't invited and still has comments, shut the hell up it's none of your goddamn business.

We don't want no shindig afterwards. Get over it.

Amen to that. Weddings are too overblown as it is.

Damn straight! We're trying to do it the cheap way and it's still ridiculous.

The wedding ain't what makes the marriage, people are fools for buying into these giant weddings. XD

Exactly! If people put even HALF the effort they put into having the 'perfect' wedding into their marriage, there wouldn't be so many divorces. Or at least that's my humble opinion.

I never really stopped to think about the dinner and how much of a time/money waster it really is.
And it really pisses me off when guests don't even go to the actual wedding and they just show up to the dinner.
alkfjlaksjflasfjslf...hate that.

Reminds me of an ad for a local banquet center that I saw the other day. It talks about it's options and facilities, but then they say something to the effect of "Reception prices starting at $6,500." Starting?!! My jaw hit the floor.
I dunno, tradition and capitalism have merged in a seriously weird way for weddings, and most people are too sheep-like and stupid to think about what a crock of shit most of it is. Good for you for bucking the trends and sticking to your ideals. Fuck whatever anybody else says.

I KNOW, RIGHT? It's OUTRAGEOUS! That's like half of what I make in a whole year. Ridiculous.

Something else ridiculous: I was just looking around out of curiousity about wedding photos. That is just as outrageous. Most of those kind of things START at $1000. FOR FUCKING PICTURES?
The hell with that, my brother could take pretty good pictures. XD

It's like anything for a wedding, they say, Oh it's for a wedding, so overcharge them by hundreds, people are dumb and think they need it, they'll pay.

Even like the unity candle thing. (Dunno if you've heard about that, basically a thing they do at weddings where the bride and groom have two taper candles and they light one big candle together supposed to signify them joining together and whatnot.)
I was looking at them in the party/wedding aisle at Wal-Mart. WAL-MART. ALWAYS LOW PRICES.
They wanted $30 for the big candle alone. ALONE, no two taper candles or holders, JUST the candle.
I'm like fuck this and went over to the candle aisle and got THE SAME GODDAMN THING for like $5 combined.

Wedding invitations? Don't get me started.
I printed my own off from the computer with photoshop and some cardstock paper from Wal-Mart.

It is such nonsense. XD
