Where does your FI fall in the birth order? The Polish people I know have a tradition where if the older brother is still single when the younger brother gets married, he has to stand in a tub (like a big galvanized wash tub) and dance with the younger brother at the reception, or something along those lines.

The DJ playing polkas is an obvious one.
fiancee = vag ** fiance = peen ** Babies shouldn't be born with jobs ** **They're called first loves for a reason -- more are supposed to come after. You don't get a medal for marrying your prom date. Unless you're imoan. Then you get an all-expenses paid cruise to the Mediterranean and you get to meet Jared Padalecki on the flight over while wearing your jammies. But still no medal. **

It's actually kind of funny for all involved, but YMMV. I understand that some cultures and traditions are seen as stupid and tacky by others who weren't brought up in them.
