That is horrible! What kind of pastor said that?
a lot of the catholic weddings i've been to have been like softcore porn with how fast they expect the newlyweds to just start pumping out mad kids
That super southern baptist wedding was also outside in August in NC... and the reception space was outside in a tent and didn't have AC (enclosed tent). The groom's dad was best man and gave a freakin 45min toast that included the town history of Fuquay-Varina (as a union of fuquay and varina, like the union we witnessed today...etc) and it was terrible.
OH! And it was DRY.
It. Was. Miserable.
also - I heard this at a ceremony:
“…by entering into this union, you are abandoning your own weak umbrella and stepping under the shelter of your husband. He is responsible for holding that shelter up during the greatest of storms, and only through your faithful service to him by fully honoring his decisions and strength will you will be safe in this new life together.”
That sentiment will NOT be part of my ceremony.
Southern baptist.

this better have been a family member or like your best friend
Gross. Similarly, I attended a wedding where the idea 'wife submits to husband' was highlighted several times.

I'd rather have gone to the wedding where the groom didn't show up and the stripper partied and cried

When my wife and I got married, we did a very small, family only ceremony. We rented out the private room at a restaurant for dinner afterwards and that was that. A year later, when I got back from the Stan, we through a reception weekend for about 100 people. Sushi/cocktail party on Friday night, golf on Saturday morning, reception on Saturday night...it was a fucking riot, plus we got to hit the after party with our friends.
We may end up going this way. Yesterday, we found out that not only has her mother not spoken to her since before Christmas, she let her insurance policy lapse on December 1 when my fiancee called to confirm a doctor's appointment. So we had to scramble to get a policy through the school which ended up being $2500.
So in addition to not helping with the costs at all her mother is actually taking money out of our pockets.
