I've told my GF I want a small, but luxe and lavish wedding. We don't need 400 people. In fact, the smaller the better. Cost isn't an issue, I just don't want a massive wedding.
We'll have a big stag/doe party for family and friends.
Then, a bachelor party with the lads in Vegas. Vegas, baby! Vegas!
wait, arnt you gay?
No, just stylish, well-dressed, and wealthy. You?
LMAO :thumbsup:
You're too sexy for your pink shirt, too sexy for your pink shirt, so sexy it hurts.
Nonsense. Plenty of wedding dresses can be had for $400. Sure they won't look like some princess-whore thing, and may not have 45 lbs in fabric, but they serve the purpose.BTW, $4200 is expensive, but $400 on a dress is nothing. Nothing. Some of you have no idea how much work that goes into creating these dresses.
I have shoes that cost more than $400.
Of course you're right. So many women are in this idiotic mindframe about weddings, like it will be _the best day of their life_ and damn the consequences of having to pay for it for 10 more years.I am opposed, on many levels, to young people financing their own expensive wedding. That "special day" will be the biggest rip-off of your lives, and will saddle you with debt for years. But hey, if you want to start your lives together off on the wrong foot, feel free...

Yeah and? Never expected it to suck me dry of all expenses.
Ummm, that's the definition of marriage - suck you dry of all expenses, motivation, reason for living, etc.

ROFL you let her spend $4200 on a wedding dress? If Mrsskoorb wanted to spend that on a wedding dress I'd have called the engagement off immediately and told her to never speak to me again. Talk about a fvcking waste of money. Good freaking Lord above us, free us from our sins.
Regardless of what your fiancee told you, you can get a decent wedding dress for $500, or less.
I'm not being sarcastic either: if she spent $4200 of your (hers/yours, same thing) money on a wedding dress I would have called the wedding off, because to me it says something about a woman's total lack of reality in terms of finances, and you'll have to live with that idiocy for the rest of your life.
ME (10:46:39 PM): woah...a wedding dress costs 4-6K!!!!
HER (10:47:18 PM): ??where did that come from
ME (10:47:26 PM): reading a thread on AT

ME (10:47:47 PM): about this guy's fiancee buying a wedding dress with his money
ME (10:47:50 PM): for 4200
HER (10:48:07 PM): usually the dress is a gift from parents
ME (10:48:45 PM): a tux would prolly cost 600
ME (10:48:59 PM): u best not buy a dress thats > 2K
HER (10:49:15 PM): haha
HER (10:49:20 PM): ohh reallly!
HER (10:49:53 PM): nah thats a lot for a dress. im sure there are plenty of deals for cheaper

We all rented as well. Tuxes don't come in handy much, especially after you pack on a solid 30 lbs after the wedding and can never use it again.Originally posted by: Anubis
tell your GF that my dad, uncle, brother in law and 4 friends all rented a tux for their weddings

oh noes!! you could have bought 5 FX-55s for that!!!
i hope her wedding dress is equal to 13GHz of FX power!!

about the same amount that my dress cost, although yours, surprisingly, is a little bit more. it sucks... you only wear it one night, so why pay $724823843284848?(my parents took care of it, but still, it's a lot of money and i feel for you.)
today, i had my last bridal gown fitting. it's all done... now, just to get married next week :shocked:
