Getting Married!
- Thread starter MichelleV
- Start date
First of all, Welcome.
Secondly, you may experience a long period of pregnant silence as if you just announced that topic at the local feed store. That said;;;;;
There are plenty of ladies here to offer suggestions, let us hope we don't lose a promising newbie because some of our guys are still figerin' out why you are here.
Leni, Mama, get in here please.

Someone is going to have a "BIG AFFAIR" at the wedding??? Hope someone gets video.
Welcome to FF. It has been 37 years and I still say going to the JP was the smartest thing we ever did. If you have to have a wedding plan on lots of liquor and get somebody sober to take pics. That way you will know who not to invite to anniversary celebrations.
Dragonfly Lady and I have been married for 43 years but I can't really give you any ideas about how to make the ceremony
fun. Everything was taken care of while I was otherwise occupied in Vietnam!
Later, if you have questions about how to make the marriage last, several of the folks on here can give you - well, not
tips necessarily, but the things that have worked for us.
BTW, welcome aboard!!

Oh yeah, sorry about that. Hey Michelle, are you getting married because you want to or because he has compromising photos of you and that goat?
I think I just pissed my pants laughinglJust for the record, I don't think she's coming back. Too many nut cases here.
I vaguely remember my wedding of 41 years ago. Some of the groomsmen said something about a bridesmaid, and alley and a train. No friggin idea what they were talking about, but they all had smiles on their faces.

Get a prenuptial is my advise. I am facing losing the family farm now because after 19 years of marriage my wife has decided to cash out. Land prices are up here so she is trying to force a sell of the farm to get the money. She could care less about the farm she just sees $$$ signs.
This advise works both ways. Some guys are just as bad so if you have any property or other assets my advise is worry less about making the wedding fun and protect yourself.
We all think it will never happen to us...my wife seemed to be a saint 18 years ago....

Not exactly a wedding plan but, good advice just the same.
Sorry for your troubles pal
Get a local garage band, serve Chicken, Pasta Alfredo and broccoli spears. Have an open bar, keep the phone for Police handy and leave early. It is your wedding. Go home and celebrate with the new spouse. Your guests will sort out the rest of the evening as they wish.
All the Aunts and Uncles can argue on the way home how it could have, should have, would have, been done better.
Mom and Dad stay and help clean up. Dad writes a check.
There done!
Good advice and a good summation Franc. Michelle, you'd do well to consider this plan very seriously ... it is a good one!
I'm getting married next summer as well. August 16th is our date. Got the hall and church booked. Photographer and DJ also taken care of. Meal, cake all done. The missus has her dress. I'm still trying to convince her to let me wear camo. Still a ways to go before the date so hopefully I can wear her down before then.

Well a white tux can be concidered "Arctic Camo" for winter work...
Well I hope everything goes well for you and the "Other guy", Congratulations and hope it is all you dreamed it will be!

One way or another I'll be wearing camo. Got the thong ordered
At risk of hyjacking this older thread, we are now just over three months away from the wedding. We have most arrangements made. Got the honeymoon booked. We took a full day marriage prep course today with ten other couples. Was a very nice day with several different people talking about different subjects. The day ended with a candlelight dinner.
Less then 7 weeks away from the wedding. Plans are coming along nicely. The girls are doing their thing today going through decorations and stuff.
It's been 35 years since I went through it so I can't offer any insight.
I do remember however a good friend from Dallas who offered his only daughter (the other 3 were boys) $10,000 if she and her fiancee would only elope to Las Vegas.
Went to the justice of peace almost 38 years ago. Whole lot less stress for everybody.
Us too. No party. But did buy a house a few weeks before we went downtown.
We're going to have a party. Aiming at 120 people. Getting married in our church then having a reception at a local hotel. The following day we fly out mid afternoon to Charleston SC for the honeymoon. Like I've said in other threads, we are quite involved in our church. So it will be nice to have everyone in our lives there to celebrate with us.
