if I ever get divorced.
I'd have to go through all of the horridness that is planning a wedding and then have one again!
I have never seen two people look so stressed as the bride and groom at last night's rehearsal dinner. I wanted to give the bride a great big hug and tell her to take a deep breath, but I think I would have shattered her into a million little pieces if I had.
The wedding later today should be interesting.
Re: Reason #1 that I'll never get married again
I never got stressed about the wedding. I was super lucky. I had a blast at the rehearsal dinner and it was perfect. So was the wedding. mostly because we just laughed a lot and whatever went wrong was just, not important.
I also think second and third weddings are generally less insane than the first. Or at least, if the bride is less insane, they seem to be.
LOL. Wedding stress sux, be sure to report back. Is the weather nice at least?
My #1 reason is that I'm too lazy to 'train' another husband. I had DH right where I wanted him, dirty clothes in the hamper, dirty dishes in the dishwasher but then he got deployed. I'm going to have to do some remedial work with him when he gets back.
Weather is nice so far, but they're predicting severe storms for late afternoon/early evening. The wedding doesn't start until 5, so hopefully they hold off until the bride is in the church...
I loved my wedding - every minute of planning and prep work. My mom and I got along great and DH and I agreed on all the important things and anything not terribly important (flowers, invitations), he couldn't have cared less about. Our rehearsal dinner was fun and I was so relaxed the day of. My hairdresser was even like "You are the most relaxed bride I've ever seen!". We had a wonderful time at the reception and I was sad when it was over.
I want to do it again.
Dh and I joke that we can't get divorced because neither one of us wants to go through wedding planning again. It was stressful mostly because of certain relatives.
BTW, I love your siggy pic! He is so adorable is his firetruck pjs!
I agree 100%. I wanted to elope and DH wanted the "huge party". He now says we should've eloped. It is one day and a huge waste of money. I think about what I could've done with that $10K often. We were already going to Hawaii so we should've just been married on the beach in Kauai!!!

See this is me!!! DH and I went to the court house a year to the day before our wedding and got married, then a year later had our wedding. I told him that we should keep up the tradition and just keep getting married every year like Heidi Klume and Seal, but he won't have it.
Lame I say. Lame.
