Dream Wedding

[KeilCoppes]

The "how" and "what" has long ago faded to the "who" and the "that"!

i really like the idea of small. as small as is possible where we invite just close family and close friends. it does add up though. absolutely no children. may would be a nice month--as long as it's comfortably warm. on the more informal side--i'd rather not wear shoes and let my hair be undone and "flowing in the wind"--if there were wind. and amazing dress that makes me look like some sort of heavenly creature. lots of lilacs all around (that's why i thought may would work well)--but all casually put together--no stuffy flower arrangements. accoustic guitar. sit down dinner that's more like a dinner party. no thought to traditional necessities like greeting lines or throwing of the bouquet or anything like that. more of a giant celebration of our marriage. lots of champagne. amazing food. dancing all night. and great sex

absolutely no children

Why not?

 

[Nico]

Why not?

well, for one, it would cut down on the # of people. not for a budget's sake but rather for the sake of intimacy. i envision it being a collection of those to whom i hold an intimate bond of friendship and i would like it to be like a dinner party where we celebrate the marriage. i don't think i'd invited children to my dinner party.....it's just the way i wanted it to be. maybe it's a bit selfish....but, say a friend of mine had a baby. i'd prefer for her to have the child be with a sitter that night so that we could focus on what our friendship is without the, for lack of a better word, distraction of a baby. i want it to be more of an adult affair.

I would want a ceremony in an old castle in Ireland, of course a Christian priest would be there (not a Catholic priest but it might be hard since it is Ireland!). All my family would be there and "mystery groom's" family too. The reception would be in a big room in the castle (if it's not too old that it crumbles) and the honeymoon would be in Dublin. That or in a big church

I've never given much thought to my wedding day, except this:

My father walking me down the aisle.
And then slow-dancing with me on the floor at the reception.

I guess.. I'd want his approval. Of me and also of my choice of husband.

As for the actual wedding itself -- I'd want it in a beautiful church with lots of flowers on a sunny day. Typical, eh? LOL.

If money were really no object, I'd have a bunch of scientists research weather control so that we could have an outdoor wedding on a perfect day.

haha!

Actually, even if money were no object, I think I would still get married at a place called Clark Gardens. It's about 1 1/2 hours away ( I think). It's sort of like a botanical gardens type place, which a pond, and they have a small chapel that has beautiful stained glass windows. My ideal is that my wedding will be basically a worship service, with the ceremony in there. I think simple, elegant, and free from lots of stress and hassle would be my dream! I think making too big of a deal of the actual wedding, in terms of what color this or that will be, etc. causes the couple to lose sight of what they are really doing. It's not a big party that will end and you go home and nothing is different! Anyway, I would like a cake that has 2 different flavors, so that we could both pick which one we want. I would like to have the rehearsal dinner at a nice restaurant and be able to pay for everyone's dinner. And, of course, I would have a great honeymoon planned, either to a private island or a cabin in the moutains

I forgot to add: If my future husband is the guy I'm dating now, I would want him to sing a romantic song to me, not necessarily the whole thing, but a few lines and play the guitar along with it. The song I would want is "Don't Take the Girl"...He can sing country and used to sing in opries, so I think it would be really romantic. Wouldn't have to be in front of everyone...even if it was just us, it would be special, but if it's just us on our wedding night, well there will be a different type of singing going on hehehehe

too much to write and think about

Another idea that I was thinking would be like a fantasy/Knight and Lady style wedding, or even LOTR style... although I don't have as many ideas of what this will specifically look like, except that I want to find and rent some armour for the day. You know, be the "knight in shining armour" type of thing... although I really don't know logistically how that will work. It will probably have to be outside, if it is this one, and I will have to show up on a steed. You know, a knight and his horse... I would like to have some sword fighting in there somehow, symbolic of fighting for the heart of my beloved...

Highland Watchman, if you did a LOTR wedding, and did it right, I'd photograph it for free! Just make sure you have archers, and a dwarf might help! Wait, you are way up there in the boonies.. Well, you might have to kick in airfare or bribes for the customs officers. But I'd LOVE to see that theme. That would be awesome. Especially if you can get your guests to dress up too!

I've seen a lot of beautiful weddings, but people willing to come up with something out of the ordinary and actually go through with it are far and few between!
