means none of us would ever spend any considerable time with girls! 

And weddings would be pool and beer at the nearest pub!

i agree with you Spider, that why me and Betty eloped save a shit load on the wedding and had a strees fee time.

I had 9 people when I was married me my wife the Guy behind the desk his personal assistant my brother, Mother, Father and sister in-law my wife’s best friend .I got married in Sardinia and we left for Rome the next day , cost us Jack 

[mattyvas]

we had 33 people, catered it ourselves and organized it in 6 weeks.
we still see every person that was there except for 2.

[Betty]

I still see everybody from my wedding too  (except for the paid help), in fact we're riding buddies  [moto]- she bought me a Monster 

[brimo]

My first was a garden wedding at the out-laws, finger food and the only paid help was a barman for the day.
Handed out film to all those with cameras and paid for all the developing, that saved on a photographer, meant everybody could go wild with their cameras and ended up with some good natural shots instead of the usual cheesy stuff. (apologies if you like cheesy).
Actually best wedding I've ever been to, most people pissed and /or stoned, people in the pool, had to wake up the new bride to take her home, all good clean fun.

The next one, coming up this year is celebrant on the beach at a pacific island (yet to be decided), and a small dinner party when we get back.

ah, I'm glad I started to alter the thread onto weddings....come on the rest of you lurkers - post up your wedding stories.

My mate had his at All Saints winery near Albury/Rutherglan - and that was excellent too.

and keep the ceremony brief too...that always wins points!

[mostro]

went to a friends one in perth a few months ago, and the worst thing was that the speeches went for almost an hour! people that spoke: the bride, the groom, that fathers of both, the grooms brother and his two best men. too much of this  , not enough of this

OK, I'll play your threadjack game

- Vineyard wedding, in the hunter,  tuscan summer theme.
- Went for the whole weekend, inc a BBQ and cricket match on the Sunday
- Live music - string quartet and soprano @ ceremony, CC and the Brothers of Oz at the reception (awesome musos and good people!).
- Small for an italian wedding - under 100 guests
- Broni did an excellent job organising, theming etc  - I just rocked up (and organised the band!)

I get reminded once in a while  Oh, and I wasn't drunk 

[Spider]

the original thread was dead Goldie and 'some blokes' were getting their nickers (should that be nickors) in a knot, so I figure a nice threadjack was in order....Tool told me to do it!

[Big T]

My old wedding was in the garden of the outlaws. They were a fishing family so sea food was supplied all round. Just eating and drinking with family and friends.

Marriage ended in 1994....... Had mid life crisis..... Moved away from little old SA to Sydney town........ Haven't seem the ex , ex outlaws or ex friends for 10 years...... 

Should I do this marriage thing again, shorts and tee shirts with a barbie at the beach please........
