i had a small private family wedding. still had issues, mostly because my MIL wanted to run everything and asked nobody else for their input, including my parents. cause a lot of stress. in the end, given the circumstances, i think it turned out well. is still a sore subject for my wife for a variety of reasons, and we were on the same page the whole time.

my opinion of huge gala weddings is they are a giant waste of time and money.

my last piece of wisdom is to remember that the wedding itself lasts only for several hours. what is truly important is everything that happens after it. the actual marriage. which is theoretically supposed to last until death.

it's, also, important to know the wedding isn't really about you, it's about the guests.

No. the reception is about the guests. The wedding better be about you.

I don't care, I love it.

I often wonder if there is any correlation between size of wedding (amount spent and extravaganzaness) and length of marriage. If it's all about the wedding (for the bride, the groom, or either set of parents) is the relationship ever really at the center?

Yeah no thanks. My money - my way...

You can also get the world's top Nickleback tribute band if you want to add on an extra 6 months of marriage. That's part of the extended package.

Might as well just do a guerilla wedding at the NHL Awards then...
