I’d never have a wedding

I also want to get married, but besides being a loser without friends, I also don't have money, even a small party would be expensive in my country, if I wanted to do something really nice, and just get married at the registry office, in jeans and a t-shirt. it would be very depressing

A wedding isn't necessary for marriage, the same way a funeral isn't necessary for death.

I got married and didn't have a wedding. Just signed some papers. The idea of planning/hosting/paying for a wedding is way too stressful, why would I put myself through that pain when it's supposed to be a special day FOR ME?

Yes, I want to get married. I'd only invite my immediate family, some cousins, and my two friends. I've never been the type of person to have a huge social group, and I probably never will. Hopefully my future wife also wants a small wedding. Large ones sound like too much work.

I got married with no wedding. I even went to work right after signing the papers. I regret not having a wedding so much. But even if we had had one I wouldn't have had any friends for my side. Not even a bridesmaid or anything. I feel like I missed out on a huge life event.

that dress is so pretty! I would invite my immediate family and a few close friends also. I wouldn't have bridesmaids/groomsmen etc.
My moid has a big family though and I don't want him to invite his friends because I don't really like them lol.

The cost of wedding is so nuts to me. I don't think I ever would. I was looking at venues just out of curiosity and it's like $3k to rent some run down barn for a day. And that's literally just the barn. And "parking" Like what the fuck?

I've decided on elopement. If we ever go back to Vegas, we might stop by one of the little elopement chapels there. They are actually pretty cute. Some have multiple chapels to pick from. I was surprised to see how cute some of them were, and a lot of them have live streaming services too. The most I saw them cost is like $600. Plus you can get Elvis to officiate.

I don't see myself ever being in any kind of romantic or sexual relationship, but, hypothetically, if I were to ever be in a relationship, they would have to agree that we would never get married, ever, no matter what. I would literally rather die than get married.

thought that would be me but I'm actually planning my wedding rn… the bridesmaids thing was bothering me too, but you can just have a small wedding without any bridesmaids and it's super normal. It's all so expensive anyways. I don't know how seemingly middle-class people can afford those huge weddings.

Right, I have no clue how $10k can be considered a budget wedding, that’s unreal. It also seems like there’s a wedding “tax” for so many of these things. I’m also annoyed that venders won’t just tell you what stuff costs, or venders will get mad if you go through all their red tape to get a quote and then “ghost” them or decide against them. It’s so entitled and annoying. Like we wouldn’t have even had a conversation for you to get your hopes up falsely if you just put your prices on your website like a normal person.
Speaking of websites there’s a bizarre trend now of people getting websites for their wedding? And so there’s people selling commercial wedding websites to these dorks. Like people don’t ignore the paper invitation and informations enough as is, now they have a website to ignore too? Weddings outside of elopement and backyard weddings are psyops.

Just be careful, my gf’s mom lived with her bf long term, like 15 years without marrying. All the assets were in his name, so when he suddenly died she nearly lost everything. It would have been easier if they were legally married for her to keep everything. But it was a big drawn out fight. I guess just make sure everything’s in your name lol.

I like weddings being a celebration of two souls joining together. However, my family is full of insufferable cunts who would immediately try to control my wedding and throw bitchfits when I tell them no. I'll cross that bridge if I get to it, because for my theoretical spouse I'd want them to feel celebrated no matter what.

Literally the only purpose of marriage is for women to be property of their husbands. That's it. There is absolutely nothing romantic about it.

idk I don't mind wedding websites, it's a useful way to collect rsvps/ share gift registries and a lot of websites where you can do it for free.

What do s think about the correlation between expensive weddings and divorce? I go back and forth on wanting a wedding or marriage at all, but I was thinking of a beach side micro wedding for around a few thousand.

Oh same here. My moid’s family are extremely rude and trashy and his mom is overprotective.

Best bet option. Just have it casual with beach games set up ideally it’s not a windy day. If not tent rentals aren’t too bad. I was thinking of booking the largest cabin in a state park near me as my venue.

I have no friends too. My guy had two friend coworkers show up and we took a video in a nice park. We later had a reception cause my mom paid for it and really pushed for it.
