Cool, this is exactly how I'd like my future wedding to be like. In fact, I don't even want a small wedding. I only want a small dinner with family and relatives of both sides to announce my happy day. I'd send greeting cards to friends to announce the relationship. Then we'd go around Asia for our honeymoon. Man, what a perfect wedding!Shazzam wrote:My husband and I had a small wedding in a really old rotunda on the beach with just family and friends. It was lovely. I don't think I could go through the nerves to have a big wedding. All that organisation etc would drive me crazy. It was nice and simple. We concentrated on the honeymoon.

I'd like a small wedding, too. I am so shy I hate being the focus of attention And I've been imagining that day for years! Although you know what happens: when you think too much about a future situation, when it comes it's so different than you had imagined...
After all, all we have to do is sign some papers... right?
Anyway I am not going to get married in a church, that's for sure!

A long white wedding dress is nice, too. I used to own a bunch of magazines that had a lot of nice wedding dresses, and I used to dream I could have one of those dresses for my wedding. Now Vietnamese people have made some nice wedding dresses with a mix of Westerner wedding dress and Vietnamese long dresses. Gosh, I kinda wanna wear those .Oriani wrote:Hey... well but ...mmm How can I say??? Oh ok. I'd like to wear a long white drees in my wedding. I don't know why but I want..have a big party after the wedding and have a nice and sweet honeymoon.... It sounds nice.. OH MY GOD....! AND THEN?? KINDS???

Well, my option it’s quiet obvious, in my opinion and related to facts that have in my hands the best thing in a marriage it’s the honeymoon, who cares about a big party and then sleep in the cheaper hotel and go in honeymoon to a place we don’t like, so.. what I’ve been doing it’s to do a bit of honeymoon always that i can, about the rest and to be honest i have never thought , i heard many friends that have already married saying that since they are married the freedom it’s over… so I cannot abdicate of the thing I most like in live, ok i'm joking on this last sentence... i'm sure there's many happy marriages around the world

I've found the dress that I was talking about in my previous post. What do you think? Too dressy? Too corny?

It depends on who you're marrying to. My cousin's boyfriend's parents are a happly married couple. He told my cousin that his dad pays about 60-80 dollars every year for a license number plate, which has his wife's name on it. It's so frigging romantic to me.Rui wrote:i heard many friends that have already married saying that since they are married the freedom it’s over… so I cannot abdicate of the thing I most like in live, ok i'm joking on this last sentence... i'm sure there's many happy marriages around the world

I don't find it romantic, instead I think that man has so much money he doesn't know what to spend it on :DLennyeTran wrote: It depends on who you're marrying to.

Oh, he complains when he pays the bills. My cousin's boyfriend asked him why he never wanted to cut this off since it was really unnecessary in his opinion. His dad told him it feels more special for him to have his wife's name on the car (this is one of many ways of his to show the world he's committed). Some people love to wear their love on their sleeves, I guess .Dixie wrote:

Yeah, I find it soooo freaky!!! I think being romantic doesn't have anything to do with that. That's totally unnecessary, he's wasting his money! Well, that's his business anyway... :DLennyeTran wrote: Oh, he complains when he pays the bills.

It is, indeed. But it's still better than sky-writing to me. Gosh, this thing is a waste of money . I mean, c'mon lazy butt, get off your a** and get her a HUGE diamond ring with a nice bouquet of roses to propose to her .Dixie wrote:

Well maybe not huge Lenny. You have to remember diamonds cost money you have to keep your budget in mind, however it doesn't mean you have to be stingey either.LennyeTran wrote:It is, indeed.

Well, I was thinking in give you the honey moon as a wedding present, you must to choose between mexican beaches: Acapulco, Cancún, Puerto Vallarta (the last in where Elizabeth Taylor had one of her honey moons with Richard Burton)
Unfurtunally : i heard many friends that have already married saying that since they are married the freedom it’s over… so I cannot abdicate of the thing I most like in live.
Lenny, which is the difference between a traditional wedding and your second option in the poll????
And tell me dear why you don´t include in your option a "Hippy Wedding" ?????

Oh, traditional wedding is for people of different cultures like Chinese, Indian, Vietnamese, Japanese, etc. who have their traditional wedding dresses instead of the long white wedding dress.Elba wrote:

But that skywriting will fade away; the diamond wedding will not. The ring doesn't have to be big, but it's still a lot better than skywriting to me. Skywriting is the most stupid things for proposal to me. It's even more stupid than giving that person a bouquet.Shazzam wrote:
