Title: Farewell everyone
Post by: Jaron on April 08, 2010, 12:17:15 PM
I'm off to my weekend trip to Vegas. My sister is getting married this weekend.

I'll be back on Sunday.

And as the cherry on the cake, after Saturday I'll have Armenian relatives. :nelson:

Is this an American thing?
As the movies seem to make a point of weddings being big pick up places but in real life they're utterly nothing of the sort, they're the opposite environment.

My brother got married in Reno a few years ago, it was a blast.

It's a pop culture thing.  You're right - I've never* actually seen brides maids being picked up at a wedding.


*one exception -  my own wedding!  Only time I've ever seen it, but one of my friends got it on with one of the bridesmaids (my wife's cousin).  A little wierd since I knew both parties, but they were both adults...

Most weddings I've been at, someone hooked up. Mostly horribly inappropriately, leading to drama, often of a drunken nature.

And no,  I'm not referring to the people actually getting married ...  ;)

I didn't get any of my own goddamn wedding cake because they made me take a bunch of fucking photos while the unwashed masses were all swarming over it.  :mad:

I did however get to take advantage of my reception's open bar.  MASSIVE advantage, in fact :cheers: :blush:

Yeah there's that, but normally there's a big gap between the wedding and the reception.
And free stuff is free stuff.

You know, I'm pretty sure there were motherfuckers who showed up at my reception that weren't at the wedding.  Probably belonged to the white trash freeloader crowd my mother in law invited (without asking our permission, of course). :mad:

Hey! What's wrong with Raybans? I use a pair and it looks good damn it.

I actually had a pair of Raybans stolen by Mexicans as well. It was in early 90's.

Post by: sbr on April 12, 2010, 01:20:01 AM
A pair of Raybans was my last expensive pair of sunglasses.  I bought them one afternoon then went out drinking and never saw them again, ~$80 ad I owned them for less than 8 hours.  Since then I have not paid more than $15 for sunglasses.

I estimate I was responsible for killing about 2 bottles of champagne, half a bottle of Malbec, and an unknown number of beers at mine.  Granted, the reception lasted like 6 or 7 hours and I spread it out & made sure to eat, but I'm still not sure how I made it through without keeling over.  I think I had 4 or 5 Cuban cigars that night, as well.  God was with me, I guess.

It took probably the first bottle's worth of champagne to loosen me up enough to sing "La Bamba" with the band, but I had that house rockin' :punk:

Our wedding had two tiers of guests: the formally invited ones who showed up when the reception started, and then the ones who were invited by phone call, word of mouth, or invited themselves showed up around midnight. 

Apparently that's pretty much the Argentine way.  You have the good food & booze out for the family & close friends early on, and then when the others start showing up, you switch to beer, pizza, etc.

The wedding ceremony was a packed house since my wife's sister was getting married the same time, and some people had to stand.  Even though the church was full, we still had people wandering in off the street to watch.  Apparently that's another Argentine thing :huh:

Its been quite normal in weddings I've been to for there to be more at the reception than wedding- receptions typically being in much bigger places and more child-friendly, etc....
