Most amusing/pathetic statement I've heard so far regarding wedding planning

After hearing me describe my no-frills, low budget wedding in a chat room:

"It sounds like you can't afford the wedding you want right now. Why don't you postpone it until you can afford necessities like flowers and a photographer and a DJ?"

NEWS FLASH!! Not everyone considers flowers and DJ's to be "necessities"! I prefer to save my money for things that are more important, like prettying up my little house. Bah.

I'm with you. I had a low-budget wedding. Not because I couldn't afford it, but because I don't see the sense in spending thousands of dollars on one day. It's the marriage that counts more than the wedding. And people wonder why they have no money when it's time to retire. Hmmm ...

that person is dumb. s/he obviously thinks that a wedding is supposed to be the same for everyone. a wedding is a union between two people that love each other in the image that they see fits best. there is no "set method" for it. i think the way you guys have decided to do your wedding is PERFECT, IMNSHO!
