My wife's sister during her maid of honor speech rearranged the words to Hey Soul Sister... To stuff about us. Their family thought it was the coolest thing ever. It was f****** retarded. Like cringe-worthy bad. They took a crappy song and now made it even worse when I hear it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

First time I was 19, divorced 5 years later. Second one died of cancer. Currently on #3. So far, so good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kopy 489 Posted May 17, 2018 Me and the Mrs. All My Life, by Linda Ronstadt/Aaron Neville duet. Then right after that song, we had the wedding party come out there with us. Which was Keeper of the Stars, by Tracy Byrd. We each wanted a song, and neither one of us wanted to budge. So we said f it. Let's do both. It's our wedding.

jerryskids 5,191 Posted May 17, 2018 No song, no guests. Just us on a picturesque secluded beach in Hawaii with the ceremony lady and photographer. Wouldnt have it any other way. Got married and had week long honeymoon in paradise all for less than 5k. Others spend tens of thousands on gaudy annoying weddings they saw in rom com movies. Obscene waste of cash, could take an awesome trip to anywhere in world for that. But hey, gotta do what the marketing agencies taught you to do right? To each his own. I enjoyed celebrating my wedding with family and friends. All of our family lives back east and wanted an excuse to vacation in Phoenix anyway; one cousin said something like (if you get married back here I'll kill you). Plus my inlaws paid; if we had done what you did we'd have been removed from the will. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Patriotsfatboy1 1,432 Posted May 17, 2018 We got married in Hawaii as well. Had 17 people there, though, so it was still celebrated with our parents and some close friends. We still had a song.

vuduchile 1,941 Posted May 17, 2018 Previous marriage - Lets Stay Together. We didnt. Huge, elaborate wedding in New Rochelle. No idea of the final cost. Probably $50K range. Her parents paid. Current and last marriage - no song. Went to a JUP, then spent a week in Puerto Vallarta. My wife and I threw a big party for friends and family at a Chicago steakhouse when we returned. We paid.

All of our family lives back east and wanted an excuse to vacation in Phoenix anyway; one cousin said something like (if you get married back here I'll kill you). Plus my inlaws paid; if we had done what you did we'd have been removed from the will. Now that its all planned and mostly done, Im looking forward to the wedding. I never had one with the ex wife. Now granted, out of the 100 guests, exactly five of them are mine. My parents, two of my china friends, and one of their girlfriends. But still, will be fun. Wish my brother and sister were coming. The original plan was to fly back to the states afterwards and have a party. But that was too much for one summer. We will go home next summer instead. We and my parents are taking a short trip instead. But I would never do it in the states. The whole damn thing, venue, photos and video, food, dress and suit, rings, whole damn shebang cost us around $5k in the Philippines. My parents spent well over $100k on my sisters wedding two years ago. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

titans&bucs&bearsohmy! 2,745 Posted May 18, 2018 Why aren't your brother and sister coming? Because they have normal jobs, and only get a week of vacation at a time, most of which is taken up with obligations. Flying to the opposite end of the world just wouldnt work. Plus my sister is pregnant and cant fly, and my brother in law is afraid to fly, so that knocks them out. My brother has been talking about taking his family to Vietnam for ten years (his wife is Vietnamese) but never do. They just bought a farm, have a lot of work going on there, own three nail salons, so getting that far away is hard for them. I mean my parents itinerary is brutal. Memphis to Atlanta to Seoul to Manila with layovers at each, then a two hour drive to the town. On the way back it will be Cebu to Manila to Seoul to atlanta to Memphis, then an hour drive home. Better part of three whole days traveling, jet lag, its a lot to ask. But theyre retired. I was actually surprised they decided to come. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
