The not finishing HS thing probably had something to do with it.

SPRING BREAK WOO!

― Jimmy Mod Is Great At Getting Us Into Trouble (ModJ), Monday, 13 June 2005 19:56 (twenty years ago)

Could have been a shit ton of French goths.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Monday, 13 June 2005 19:57 (twenty years ago)

It is neither spring nor are my sisters in high school, you madman.

― Allyzay flies casual (allyzay), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:05 (twenty years ago)

Word.

― Jimmy Mod Is Great At Getting Us Into Trouble (ModJ), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:06 (twenty years ago)

Dude 'Zay, when is your wedding already? I really want to meet the sister that dresses up for halloween like turn-of-the-century captain of industry. I want to tour factories with her and ask her whether machines will ever replace the Chinee.

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:08 (twenty years ago)

And I want to meet the other two.

― Jimmy Mod Is Great At Getting Us Into Trouble (ModJ), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:09 (twenty years ago)

Someone should take me to Hooters.

― the D Double signal (nordicskilla), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:09 (twenty years ago)

alright alright alright, lemme get to planning, I swear it's the next thing on my list after I finish up fixing up the new apt.

― Allyzay flies casual (allyzay), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:15 (twenty years ago)

YAY!

― Jimmy Mod Is Great At Getting Us Into Trouble (ModJ), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:16 (twenty years ago)

I am the best straight male wedding planner you could possibly have. Seriously, I know it all.

― the D Double signal (nordicskilla), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:17 (twenty years ago)

alright, tell me what you know about cakes.

― Allyzay flies casual (allyzay), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:18 (twenty years ago)

I can offer you an ox as ring bearer which I will ritually slaughter and serve up for the wedding reception.

― Ed (dali), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:20 (twenty years ago)

oh snap. Ed wins.

― Allyzay flies casual (allyzay), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:22 (twenty years ago)

alright, tell me what you know about cakes.

If you are having an outside wedding, make sure that you use an icing that will not

a) melt
b) attract bugs

― the D Double signal (nordicskilla), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:22 (twenty years ago)

I would recommend a three-tiered cake with different flavors and fillings - something for everyone. You can even use a fake tier.

― the D Double signal (nordicskilla), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:23 (twenty years ago)

wear something on which the blood will not show, ok.

― Ed (dali), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:24 (twenty years ago)

I would like to have a cake that is not white, but perhaps, like, bright orange, or teal.

― Allyzay flies casual (allyzay), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:25 (twenty years ago)

Won't they be bathing in the blood anyway, Ed?

― Jimmy Mod Is Great At Getting Us Into Trouble (ModJ), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:25 (twenty years ago)

You should really start a 'plan my wedding' thread and take solicitations from ILXors like Star Jones

― Jimmy Mod Is Great At Getting Us Into Trouble (ModJ), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:26 (twenty years ago)

I would like to have a cake that is not white, but perhaps, like, bright orange, or teal.

This is very possible, and you won't have to compromise on flavor or texture. Make sure to shop around and try lots of cake.

― the D Double signal (nordicskilla), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:26 (twenty years ago)

Do not keep any of your cake. Make sure to eat it all.

I chose the top tier of ours myself and greatly enjoyed eating it.

― the D Double signal (nordicskilla), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:27 (twenty years ago)

Also -

Everyone will have an opinion. DO NOT LISTEN.

― the D Double signal (nordicskilla), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:27 (twenty years ago)

Wait, wedding planning without me? :-(

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:28 (twenty years ago)

I never underrstood that, keeping the cake. I mean does that really even work, freezing it for like a YEAR and then eating it? Wouldn't it get really nasty?

Also the blood spatters would probably go bad over a year.

xpost u r OTM about this opinion thing you know.

― Allyzay flies casual (allyzay), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:28 (twenty years ago)

Do NOT listen to anyone, even your family or your best friend! OR your fiance!

― the D Double signal (nordicskilla), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:29 (twenty years ago)

Don't even listen to me!

― the D Double signal (nordicskilla), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:29 (twenty years ago)

there should be 96 tiers on your cake

― laurence kansas (lawrence kansas), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:29 (twenty years ago)

as long as you have an open bar, do whatever!

― mookieproof (mookieproof), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:29 (twenty years ago)

Have the reception AT Hooters.

― milozauckerman (miloaukerman), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:31 (twenty years ago)

DON'T LISTEN TO HIM!

― Jimmy Mod Is Great At Getting Us Into Trouble (ModJ), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:31 (twenty years ago)

Actually, Mookie speaks wisdom.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:31 (twenty years ago)

isnt teal a sort of duck?

― ambrose (ambrose), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:31 (twenty years ago)

yes. I want a cake made out of duck, and ox blood, with 734 tiers.

― Allyzay flies casual (allyzay), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:32 (twenty years ago)

Yum!

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:33 (twenty years ago)

Get all your vendors to SIGN agreements of some kind. Don't feel like a dick doing it, we had a photographer bail on us at some unfortunate moment.

― the D Double signal (nordicskilla), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:35 (twenty years ago)

Wedding planning is best kept off ilx. Except maybe I should have gotten an ilx dj.

― Leon C. (Ex Leon), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:36 (twenty years ago)

rice krispie treat cake!!

― teeny (teeny), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:36 (twenty years ago)

I think Donut would make a good wedding DJ.

― jaymc (jaymc), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:37 (twenty years ago)

Get it from here

― gabbneb (gabbneb), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:37 (twenty years ago)

What corporate sponsors are you going to get??? I suggest Grey Goose and Canada Dry. thx.

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:37 (twenty years ago)

you need oatmeal as a binding agent.

― Ed (dali), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:38 (twenty years ago)

Our DJs were BIKERS. I forbade them to play "I've Had The Time Of My Life" or "Celebration".

― the D Double signal (nordicskilla), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:38 (twenty years ago)

ugh no ILX DJ!!! ILX photographer.

xpost those are pretty good corporate sponsors, though maybe Vera Wang might still be interested...

― Allyzay flies casual (allyzay), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:38 (twenty years ago)

My friend told his wedding DJ, "play whatever you want, but if you want to get paid then NO JIMMY F*CKING BUFFET."

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:39 (twenty years ago)

- Cake is terrible after a year. Trust me, don't save it.

- if anyone in your wedding party is breastfeeding, make sure they child is fed WELL BEFORE the ceremony

- if you are getting married in front of a fountain, don't let Tom drink a lot of beer beforehand while he waits for your breastfeeding maid of honor to hurry the hell up and feed the kid

- if you are told to hang your veil over a hanger in the bathroom to steam out any wrinkles, hang it by the comb or whatever you will use to attach to your head because otherwise you will end up with a hanger indent in your veil. Not as pretty as you'd think.

- don't let your sister (the aforementioned breasfeeder) apply nailpolish right before you show her how to bustle your dress

- disposable cameras on the tables are kinda cool

- find someone to follow you around at all times with a bottle of champagne, so as to give you frequent refills, and don't forget to eat *something*, even if it's just a little.

More as I think of it.

The woman that designed Zellweger's dress designed my wife's dress! (so I'm told)

xp who knows that "Tootsie Roll" song? I heard it, for the first time, at my own wedding.

― the D Double signal (nordicskilla), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:40 (twenty years ago)

hire some conservatory trained russian classical musicians. they are normally to be found busking in metros, and on stage at the weekend at ther mariinsky. i reckon you could knock up a quartet for $400 + air fare. theres probably some knocking about in NY

― ambrose (ambrose), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:40 (twenty years ago)

Yes, don't forget to eat!

― the D Double signal (nordicskilla), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:41 (twenty years ago)

Of the many reasons Luna is cool, one of the best is her practical advice. :-)
