Having a bunch of rugby playing ladies in attendance would have been the only way I would have done a bouquet toss at my wedding.

I am always confident that the vast majority of my family will be extremely passive aggressive about not getting their way; the others will just straight up be assholes about it. I have so, so much faith in my family.

My husband’s ex-wife invited us to her second wedding. Nope couldn’t do it.

You got married at DragonCon? Oh I love it.

I remember that at the last wedding (my cousin’s, I was a bridesmaid) I attended with AssholeDouchcanoe I stood in the back clasping my hands behind my back terrified the fucking bouquet would bounce off my head. My asshole uncle saw me doing that and of course had to make a snide comment about it. So of course…

Oh I agree. Like I said, I love my dad, but I’m not his property to give away. My parents almost had an aneurism when I told them I would not be buying a big poofy white dress and would most likely be getting married in either burgundy or red. I ended up in a black dress I already owned because it looked good on me…

I can’t figure out why my husband would have really cared whether or not I threw greenery at single women, but he’s a lot like me about traditions. I’m not saying to abandon every single tradition just because, but I really think you need to examine them closely. I grew up in the South with the whole flinging the…

I definitely understand things like confirmation bias, but some of this stuff goes so far beyond even that. Some of them really seem to be going off the rails.

I’ll admit I kind of like watching them throw themselves into irrelevance, but I also have to wonder what could possibly go wrong in the human mind to cause them to have thoughts like that.

Those actual words came out of a person and not some sort of disgusting parody generating machine?

Sadly at Starbucks to get a macchiato you have say espresso macchiato.

I also don’t think a willingness to compromise means you need a backbone; you just can’t compromise with my family.

No bouquet toss at my wedding, and I told my family to suck it up about that and most of the other traditions unless they were helping pay for the wedding. I got push back from them about it, which is funny because most of them weren’t even planning to come to the wedding since it was in a different state than them.…

It’s what I did, but my family is fucking pushy so you have to be blunt with them. We canceled the large ceremony and got married with just us, my step children, our witnesses, and the pastor when my family wouldn’t shut up about all the traditions we were abandoning. The sad part, we were paying for everything, and…

I’m in love with your wedding.

You are the best.

Why are you telling my life story?

Ewwww!

Those are generally exceptions. Before I got married I was singled shamed way too many times to ever be comfortable with that crap. I don’t even like the all married couples dance thing because I still feel that dividing your friends and family by relationship status is tacky.

Never, ever think you’re the only one.
