After Being Divorced For 25+ Years, My Parents Reconnected, Moved To Texas And Bought A Farm. Today They Are Getting Married Again. This Is Their Wedding Portrait
Dorothy Parker 3 years ago (edited)
I hope that unlike in American Gothic, she's not his daughter. And congratulations!
To talk about all the joys and pains of the most important day of our lives, we previously contacted Rhiann Janak, the lead wedding planner and CEO of “Lucy Till French Weddings.” We were intrigued to see at what point things go against the plan and how to make sure everything goes smoothly so there are no unforeseen incidents.
Rhiann said that essentially, “If there are too many cooks in the kitchen, you'll have a hard time pleasing everyone and drama will arise.” So in order to avoid any unnecessary drama, Rhiann recommends a simple trick: “keep the choices you make a secret until the wedding day unless you genuinely want someone's input as it may be different to yours.”

My Friend Had A Medieval Themed Wedding And Her Grandpa Showed Up Like This
Rhiann recounted one incident about her friend who had a vegan meal in the heart of Texas, BBQ country. “Her mother-in-law spent the entire planning process stressing about the fact that people will be hungry and wearing out the phrase 'what, I can't believe there won't be any meat.'”
“But in the end, everyone, all the guests, and mother-in-law were really happy with the meal,” Rhiann said and added that “sometimes, a bit of surprise is a good thing.” You shouldn’t thoroughly adapt your wedding to the preferences of your guests, and if you take them into account, this should not overturn the things that you feel comfortable with on your wedding day.

What do you think ?

THIS is what weddings should be: fun, laughter, and friendship. It should NOT be a "pain in the A&&," it should be joyous and beautiful. It is a CELEBRATION and not a wake or a funeral or a "ohmygawd". People who laugh, love and spread joy will capture the future, those who don't, throw away a lot of happiness.

Years ago at a friend's wedding we were sitting in the church waiting for the ceremony to start. Just as everyone was quietening down for the start one of my friends said "If I was Simon, I'd be shitting myself about now". *Everyone* heard that as it echoed around the church. Cue lots of tutting from the bride's side and lots of stifled laughing from us.

These are all so great!! Such humor and joy. I remember when all weddings were so stuffy and pressured that everything be perfect and things were done a certain way or it raised eyebrows. This is so much better. However, I really do need an explanation one the underwear rollerskates guy.

My niece had a beautiful wedding ceremony on a beach at a resort in Mexico. Just as the sun was starting to set and they were about to say their vows, the "pirate" boat that the resort had for the tourists sailed by with cannons blasting. With perfect timing my brother yelled out "shotgun wedding!" Much laughter ensued, best wedding I've ever been to.
