    when the time is right, what are yours
    or possibly, what do you prefer in their absence

    i really don't want a big huge wedding ceremony with all the attention and money and pomp and circumstance and what not, 'cause that is entirely impractical and just not me. drop me off at the registry office and let us sign the form to get the marriage certificate to go, big smoke picking up his orders from cluckin' bell. that sort of centralised attention is nothing i've ever aspired to. but despite that, the one giggly and romantic thing that i've ever wanted in a wedding, aside from whoever the partner might be, is heaven is a place on earth playing on speakers the moment i either say i do or when we leave the venue. everyone gets up and i cry! that's all i want. it's the only wedding song i've ever considered, and in my more romantic and fanciful times, it's the only thing i can think of when i imagine what i would like in a wedding. it's making me tear up just thinking about it!!!!
     
    To be honest, I've put more thought into my Funeral than I have for my Wedding and its largely because I don't see myself ever getting Married. To find someone who would accept and tolerate my "bad habits" would be a needle in a haystack find but if I had to think about it, I'd probably want a very, very small affair, if nothing at all. I find that people, particularly Females... lets not lie on that aspect, go way out of their way to make a big deal out of it but how long do marriages truly last? I find that if you happen to find someone and stay married for 20+ years that you have a big "wedding" to re-do your vows 20 years later as opposed to right at the start. That way the money is better spent and you reaffirm your commitment for however long it will be.

    As for my Funeral, call me a gamer but I find it fitting: Zelda's Lullaby as the music.
     
    i have two friends who have been planning their upcoming summer weddings for the better part of a year now, and it terrifies me to think that some might expect me to do the same one day. i'd like for it to be pretty and memorable, but not stressful or a Huge Organization.

    Plan on getting married officially in court than holding a reception at a later date when more money, time, and effort can be put into it. Completely secular, no churches or anything like that. Nick and I are already common law married (outside NJ), and really the only thing required is our signatures at this point. The idea of marriage to us is definitely just confirming our relationship to the government, not symbolic of our loyalty or love to one another. Hence why there's no need for so much insanity or opulence. We want it to be fun, easy, no formality, no stress. Just waiting for a good time to fund the after party, is all.

    @CodeHelmet: if you don't play the Song of Healing first you'll be doing yourself a disservice, imo!

    What you said there is partly why I have a huge problem with the Catholic church and Gay Marriage. Its a legal contract in the eyes of the Government. I understand the Holy Sacrament and all but I think they need to get their head out of their 15th century butts and reform the Church for the 21st Century and beyond.

    Now with that being said(sorry lol), Song of Healing is nice and all but Temple of Time is better ;P
     
    I'm really unsure atm. The only wedding I've been to was so incredibly romantic and beautiful that it makes me want to invite people and hold a ceremony of my own, too. But the costs associated with that will be absolutely insane and something I'd rather be spent on our future. I guess ideally we'd sign the papers to be legally married at first (something that may be necessary in order to be eligible for a visa anyways, since my SO and I are citizens of different countries in an international relationship) and perhaps hold a smaller/more affordable ceremony down the line if funds permit? We'll see!
     
    I want ALL THE ATTENTION. I've been planning my wedding since I was a small child. I want all of my friends and family in attendance, I want a wedding in an ornate cathedral and I want there to be lots of gorgeous flowers galore. I want a pianist and a violinist playing their alluring instruments as I walk down the isle towards me dashing future husband. Of course I'm so young and I'm not planning to get married for a few years but the mere thought of it excites me! Of course I just have to locate a respectful man! ^-^

    im.. not sure. growing up i never put much thought into it because i didn't think i'd get married. however i am going to get married to my boyfriend so..

    i know i don't want a super extravagant wedding. i want the colors purple and gold. i don't want it to cost an outrageous amount of money. i haven't gone too in depth into my wedding plans with my boyfriend yet since we're not engaged yet or anything. once that time comes i'm sure i'll have way more of an idea of what i want.
     
    I've accepted the single life for the rest of my existence, if it happens it happens. Not too worried; already an old hag and fine with it. Career > Emotional complacency.

    That being said, should I find someone worth tying the knot, I have no ceremonial preferences myself, so I'll roll with whatever my partner would want (and within our budgetary parameters and/or doesn't humiliate myself.)

    I'd like to get married without anyone there. Only thing I would require is a large gourmet carrot cake wedding cake.
