you need oatmeal as a binding agent.

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...

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.

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. :-)

PLAN MY WEDDING

xpost omg if either of my maid of honors are breastfeeding at the time of my wedding it'd either be A) a miracle B) the ruin of my dad's life.

It is okay, I have everything under control. I have hired Ween to play at the reception, and the drinks available will be Iron City Beer, Sprite, and Cuervo Gold. My mother has offered to make the cake herself. Also, I am going to have all my buddies I have been able to track down from when I was 17 until the present in attendance as groomsmen, and we have some canary yellow linen tuxedos with drawstring pants lined up. You mom and dad will be getting a bill in the mail from the online build-your-wedding service I found while bored at work today. You should have seen it, it was totally easy to use.

― TOMBOT, Monday, 13 June 2005 20:46 (twenty years ago)

Haha I hope you liked my dad's collection of guns! Cos he gon' use it on you now, son!

― Allyzay flies casual (allyzay), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:53 (twenty years ago)

― Allyzay flies casual (allyzay), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:54 (twenty years ago)

Maybe he is.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:55 (twenty years ago)

This is reminding me that I will DJ my own wedding with whoever my future spouse is, splitting down the middle on song choice, firing up the iPod and leaving it at that.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Monday, 13 June 2005 20:57 (twenty years ago)

"Bulls Theme," btw = "Rock N Roll Part 2"

― jaymc (jaymc), Monday, 13 June 2005 21:00 (twenty years ago)

White Wedding is kind of...inappropriate, isn't it. I mean it's hardly positive.

― Allyzay flies casual (allyzay), Monday, 13 June 2005 21:01 (twenty years ago)

My cousin wore a red dress. It was very dramatic. I think a red dress would suit you as well.

― youn, Tuesday, 14 June 2005 07:31 (twenty years ago)

six months pass...

there should be 96 tiers on your cake

Exactly.

― Casuistry (Chris P), Tuesday, 3 January 2006 21:59 (twenty years ago)

When you figure it out, you'll just cry.

― Pleasant Plains /// (Pleasant Plains ///), Tuesday, 3 January 2006 22:15 (twenty years ago)

Oh, now I get it.

― laurence kansas (lawrence kansas), Tuesday, 3 January 2006 22:19 (twenty years ago)

Hope you were able to control your bladder while you were laughing so hard. My knees are bruised from the excessive slapping.

― Pleasant Plains /// (Pleasant Plains ///), Tuesday, 3 January 2006 22:30 (twenty years ago)

It was his joke!

― Casuistry (Chris P), Wednesday, 4 January 2006 02:05 (twenty years ago)

revive in honor of her impending date with the altar this saturday.

Very cool. So what's the imminent bro-in-law like?

― Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 13 March 2007 18:56 (nineteen years ago)

He has the right idea.

― Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 13 March 2007 19:10 (nineteen years ago)

― the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Tuesday, 13 March 2007 19:11 (nineteen years ago)

Pictures please!

― Beth Parker, Tuesday, 13 March 2007 19:13 (nineteen years ago)

green belt makes me more sad than anything. is it a WAIST-CINCHER???

― jessie monster, Tuesday, 13 March 2007 19:14 (nineteen years ago)

nah it is some kind of ribbony belt. it is like bright springy green though, and the dress is purple. and TEA LENGTH which is just like--what? i don't understand it at all. i will post pictures, on this thread perhaps!

i should scan back in the pix from the last time i was a bridesmaid, i was unrecognizable after the hair and makeup people fucked with me.

― the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Tuesday, 13 March 2007 19:16 (nineteen years ago)

please note what holiday this saturday is because it was not a coincidence of timing, btw :\

― the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Tuesday, 13 March 2007 19:17 (nineteen years ago)

your sister is insane.

― jessie monster, Tuesday, 13 March 2007 19:18 (nineteen years ago)

ugh, I was trying to be optimistic, Ally, because weirdo color combinations can be cute sometimes, but I do not understand tea-length dresses. WHY?

― horseshoe, Tuesday, 13 March 2007 19:18 (nineteen years ago)

I mean that in the nicest, most non-offensive way possible.

― jessie monster, Tuesday, 13 March 2007 19:18 (nineteen years ago)

xpost

― jessie monster, Tuesday, 13 March 2007 19:18 (nineteen years ago)

i am given the option to change out of the green heels and into flip flops at reception, though :D

flip flops that have been bedazzled by another bridesmaid.
