Marriage is an antiquated social institution...
Which is why I stopped going to weddings a couple of years ago, but damn do I wish I coulda been there for this one...

I hate to sound cynical, but that looked staged to me.
Having said that, I believe that *weddings* are a preposterous ritual fueled by the unbridled consumerism of our society. Marriage? I still respect that as an institution, but the whole wedding thing is just ridiculous. Women giddy with the idea of blowing zillions of of daddy's bucks or maxing out his cards on shit that nobody notices. Overpriced crap that will be used or displayed for less than two hours, then tossed aside. What a racket. And I don't know any women that don't feel completely pressured into outdoing all their friends. If every a collective population needed to be slapped silly, it's brides-to-be.
I'm not even gonna go into the unrealistic expectations everyone has about a mythical "perfect day" that is certain to disappoint everyone. Oh, sorry I got started.
@shel...i think so to. but it's still funny as hell.
I would have liked to have been at this wedding too.

I am an engaged girl myself, and I want to elope quietly and inexpensively. My fiance wants the Big White Wedding, which I have flatly refused to have any part of. Maybe it's not *all* the brides-to-be, now is it?
I sound like a Disney character waiting for Prince Charming, but I actually believe that marriage can be a magical... IF don't correctly. And no, I'm not wearing fairy dust, spreading bippity-boppity-boo around... just hope :)
Staged? I dunno, most people try not to fuck up their wedding by ending up in the dyed-blue pool!
But, that could scarcely have gone better!
Smells like stupid to me.
What kind of crazy people have the ceremony 6 in from a pool?
Its like standing a foot from a campfire and being surprised the floor length dress would catch on fire.
Or having an outdoor wedding in the spring and being sad when it rains.
Common sense people!
That's what they get for being so frou frou with the wedding. Dumbass.
