Is it still technically asking for permission if you talk to the parent in private beforehand and announce your intention to marry?
I've talked to my boyfriend extensively about what I want. I call it a pseudo-elopement. I want to get married in the same chapel in San Antonio where my parents (literally) eloped, but with our parents, siblings, and siblings' SOs in attendance. My dad will probably still walk me down the aisle because I'm his only…
My pastor walked my Mum down the aisle. I really liked how he took special care to ensure that she didn't just have to walk in by herself. I was going to have both my parents walk me down, but the aisles were seriously narrow, I could barely make it down with Dad & I!
Lord, I would die if I were asked in front of a shitload of people. Also am I the inly one who thinks the full name line is ridiculous??? Also no getting on your knees!!! That being said I wouldn't mind it if my nails looked fine but considering I'm a chronic biter that will probably never turn out.
BUT IT'S ONLY SIX RULES!
I legitimately lol'd at that!
Love that!
If my husband had asked anyone's permission to marry me but...me...we would not be married right now. But then it wouldn't cross his mind to do that, thank god.
Moved by the actions of his new bro-in-law, who hopped on a plane to ask his dad permission to marry his sister, my bf is set on asking for my dad's permission (which will be the first time he ever meets him).
So the other day, I asked him—despite it being unlikely—what happens if he says no? He replied with "Well…
Seems like bridezilla has already arrived!
"Ask my parent's blessing" skeeves me too. At least she didn't say "permission." But honestly, the first person to know you're asking them to marry you is your partner, not his or her parents. Of course you want them to be happy for you, but it's not like they're wizards who are going to cast protective charms about…
I'm southern. My perfect plan my freshman year was to find The One my freshman/sophomore year, get engaged by spring of my senior year, and get married the spring.
This is literally a list of 6 things I would NEVER WANT TO BE TRUE were I to get engaged. Who actually wants to be 100% surprised by a proposal? You should have a discussion about getting married before deciding to do so, people, it's not small potatoes!
7) PLEDGE YOURSELF TO ZUUL.
What the fuck is this bullshit? I wish I could elaborate, but I'm that disgusted.
My husband asked for my dad's permission - and his verbatim response was "Why are you asking me? Aren't you supposed to ask her?"
I disagree with 5 of those 6 'rules'
Um. Isn't the entire point of the Snowdon/NSA story about privacy? I realize that Instagram and a blog are public, but something about posting this woman's photos, writings, and captions all over the internet (which were primarily meant, presumably, for friends and family) and commenting on them in a snarky manner…
