How many times is a bride told that the wedding is her day, her dream come true? Wedding are set up to be such a fantasy that most folks think nothing of spending an ungodly amount of money on them because after all, it's "their" day. <BR/><BR/>My aunt thought that way and ended up spending so much money on her wedding that she and her husband couldn't even afford a honeymoon. Long story short, they separated THREE months after the wedding!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38270111.post-63346468432153140732008-10-01T20:59:00.000-04:002008-10-01T20:59:00.000-04:00I can't blame you for this one.

If I get married (which I don't plan on doing) I'm wearing jeans and a tshirt down to the courthouse (no wait since it's special I may wear a dress) and get it over with. Those thousands of dollars will be going towards a new vehicle or computer lol.ImitationAngelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13647787932931903320noreply@blogger.com
