It's just gross...
I've been afraid to get married, & one of the reasons is that I don't want to have anything to do w/ the whole wedding machine/complex. You can go to city hall & then take a little trip, just the two of you, but man--the fallout from just doing what you want to do! Incredible. The problem is, you've got mothers re-living their own wedding days, sisters wanting another "special day," nieces looking to be princesses, friends looking to get validated/drunk...when all it's really about is 2 people, not 10, or 50, or 200. I feel sorry for women who buy into all the wedding bullshit. They just seem dumb & weak to me. And financially idiotic.
