--- Quote from: MillionDollar Belt Sander on 01 Mar 2013, 04:28 ---Now I wasn't there, but I saw the video taken by friends (and we're talking "old fashion VHS") of someone standing up during a friends wedding and objecting "I can't BELIEVE you wore WHITE considering how many men you slept with before sinking your hooks into Bob!" The bride retorted "Try before you buy -- otherwise you end up with someone like Jim!" She then turned her back and the wedding went on.

I'd love to share that story with FB friends, but I suppose I'd have to change the names.
I saw this obnoxious guest on FB today and thought back to your description.

Bob And Battle-Britches do not post under those names. :-D
Kugai:
Yes Claire, that's it
Nice, simple and no frippery and extraneous fluff.

--- Quote from: bhtooefr on 01 Mar 2013, 04:09 ---Here in the US, it's traditional for the woman to wear a white dress, signifying her "purity" (read: virginity).
The nasty judgmental selectively-ultra-orthodox Judaism that we call Christianity here has all sorts of cultural memes about women not being allowed to wear white on their wedding day. Of course, most ignore those and wear white anyway.

As I see it, wearing white is something less than 5% of the marrying public (i.e. virgins) earn. When the rest of the population does it, it dilutes the value.
Wedding receptions are always the worst! Bad music and small talk with strangers. I might as well put a bucket on my head and sit in the corner.
Method of Madness:
YMMV, I love the reception. It's just a fancy party.
Redball:
Geez, I love weddings too but I haven't gone to any lately. I gotta say, most funerals are pleasant meet-and-greets as well. I guess it speaks to my age.
