Wedding "Would You Rather" (Poll)

SO! To liven up this slow moving Friday, I thought it could be fun to do a wedding "would you rather", here it goes:Would you rather:1) Have your dress rip when you walk down the isle? OR Get some red wine spilled on it during the reception?2) Have people RSVP 'yes' and not show up? OR Have people not RSVP at all and show up?3) Have a MOH who does abolutely nothing? OR A MOH who tries to control the whole thing?4) No makeup? OR No hair-do?5) The Macarena? OR The Electric Slide?

    SO! To liven up this slow moving Friday, I thought it could be fun to do a wedding "would you rather", here it goes:Would you rather:1) Have your dress rip when you walk down the isle? OR Get some red wine spilled on it during the reception?Dress rip!  stains are hard to get out of silk!2) Have people RSVP 'yes' and not show up? OR Have people not RSVP at all and show up?RSVP yes and NOT show up: we are paying flat fees for everything, so the exact numbers don't really matter--but I'd rather have someone not show, then someone come and there not be room for them.3) Have a MOH who does abolutely nothing? OR A MOH who tries to control the whole thing?Well, I specifically DON'T have a MOH just for this reason: I'd rather have one who did nothing--I'm in control!4) No makeup? OR No hair-do?No makeup, I think.  I want pretty curls!!!5) The Macarena? OR The Electric Slide?Geez, I'll say the Electric Slide...at least that has a little nostalgic/vintage charm...best case would be the bunny hop ;)
    Yay! Finally able to update my signature :)

    Would you rather: 1) Have your dress rip when you walk down the isle? OR Get some red wine spilled on it during the reception? Def the wine. I'm sure someone will have a Tide pen or something and the pro posed pics will have been done by then. 2) Have people RSVP 'yes' and not show up? OR Have people not RSVP at all and show up? The latter wouldn't happen because I will hunt those non-RSVPing suckers down!!!!!! 3) Have a MOH who does abolutely nothing? OR A MOH who tries to control the whole thing? A MOH who tries to control the whole thing because everyone knows with ME as a bride, that would NEVER happen. ;) 4) No makeup? OR No hair-do? No hair do. DEF. 5) The Macarena? OR The Electric Slide? Who doesn't love the Electric Slide?? --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    1) Have your dress rip when you walk down the isle? OR Get some red wine spilled on it during the reception?I'll go with...wine. At least my pics would be stain free for the formals!2) Have people RSVP 'yes' and not show up? OR Have people not RSVP at all and show up?RSVP No and show. I think I'd be really hurt if I was expecting to see someone and they weren't there.3) Have a MOH who does abolutely nothing? OR A MOH who tries to control the whole thing?I'd rather go with "tries to control" I get veto power anyway, and that would mean she was really interested I guess?4) No makeup? OR No hair-do?No make-up. I dont wear that much anyway, but I really want my hair done. 5) The Macarena? OR The Electric Slide?I'm going with the Macarena...more comical.

    1) Have your dress rip when you walk down the isle? OR Get some red wine spilled on it during the reception?Red wine during the reception. It's towards the end of the day. Room will soon be dark.2) Have people RSVP 'yes' and not show up? OR Have people not RSVP at all and show up?People who do not RSVP at all and show up. We had stations so a few extra people wouldn't have mattered.3) Have a MOH who does abolutely nothing? OR A MOH who tries to control the whole thing?I'd rather have a MOH who does absolutely nothing.4) No makeup? OR No hair-do?No hair-do. Makeup is a must.5) The Macarena? OR The Electric Slide?The Macarena

    1) Have your dress rip when you walk down the isle? OR Get some red wine spilled on it during the reception? - Dress rip. It's lace, so few extra holes won't be that noticeable. lol2) Have people RSVP 'yes' and not show up? OR Have people not RSVP at all and show up? - Have people RSVP "yes" and then not show. The minimum gets paid no matter how many people show up.3) Have a MOH who does abolutely nothing? OR A MOH who tries to control the whole thing? No MOH, but I'd rather have an MOH who does nothing.4) No makeup? OR No hair-do? No hair-do.5) The Macarena? OR The Electric Slide? I'd pick the Electric Slide.

    1) Have your dress rip when you walk down the isle? OR Get some red wine spilled on it during the reception?I vote wine..like PP said, its after pictures and it will be starting to get dark...2) Have people RSVP 'yes' and not show up? OR Have people not RSVP at all and show up?I guess Not RSVP and show, although I'll be pretty ticked off if either happens.3) Have a MOH who does abolutely nothing? OR A MOH who tries to control the whole thing?Hm I guess nothing..4) No makeup? OR No hair-do?No make up..if my hair isn't tamed, it will be a scary day.5) The Macarena? OR The Electric Slide?The macarena...my aunt keeps making jokes about how upset she'll be if we dont play it so I thinkwe may play a clip just so she has to dance :)

    1) Have your dress rip when you walk down the isle? OR Get some red wine spilled on it during the reception?wine..it happened to my sis, hehe.  she got over it.2) Have people RSVP 'yes' and not show up? OR Have people not RSVP at all and show up?I have solutions in mind for both...but i'll pick the latter. Easier to send someone home (didn't tell me you were coming? go home!) than to bill someone (that's right - rsvp yes and don't show?  you're paying for that meal you didn't eat!)3) Have a MOH who does abolutely nothing? OR A MOH who tries to control the whole thing?does nothing...FI & I can handle it!4) No makeup? OR No hair-do?no hair-do - not doing much to my hair anyway.5) The Macarena? OR The Electric Slide?I just can't pick...they both offend me and are both banned.

    Nice! 1. rip... because I'll have safety pins and needle & thread handy. 2. Not rsvp and show up. At FI's cousin's wedding this summer, some family did not show after saying they would and they were somewhat hurt. :-( 3. I'd prefer that she do nothing. Because I've got to be in the driver's seat! 4. I would say, no makeup. I feel comfortable without any, but I would feel drab without anything special done with my hair. 5. ugh! I guess the Macarena. Only because I still know how to do that, the electric slide has mutated over the years and I have no idea what the heck to do!

    1) Have your dress rip when you walk down the isle? OR Get some red wine spilled on it during the reception?Wine...sounds like I was having fun!2) Have people RSVP 'yes' and not show up? OR Have people not RSVP at all and show up?The latter, I would be pissed if someone didn't show up and I paid for their meal.3) Have a MOH who does abolutely nothing? OR A MOH who tries to control the whole thing?  One who does nothing.  In fact, I do, he's my brother lol.  I'm a control freak anyways so it doesn't matter.4) No makeup? OR No hair-do?No makeup...I do a pretty good job on my own, I would just worry about it lasting.  I'm bad at hair.5) The Macarena? OR The Electric Slide? The Macarena.  I had a traumatic experience with the electric slide as a child (I was run over at a wedding, dead serious!)

    I would rather: 1) Have your dress rip when you walk down the aisle, provided that it didn't expose anything scandalous. 2) Have people show up who haven't RSVP'd. If they don't have the courtesy to reply, then they can find their own food and join us for the dancing. Shouldn't be a problem, though, because we'll be calling all who don't RSVP by our reply date. What I would be disgusted by is paying for a guest who said they'd attend and having his or her meal (and the money we spent paying for it) go to waste. 3) Have a MOH who does abolutely nothing. I don't need much help, and just being present and supportive of our marriage is enough for me. 4) No makeup. I don't wear that muich anyway, and my hair is a daily problem that needs professional management. 5) The Electric Slide. I don't mind it much, and for some reason it doesn't seem nearly as dated to me as the macarena.

    Would you rather:1) Get some red wine spilled on it during the reception. I agree with Ekobs, it would show I'm having fun! 2) Have people not RSVP at all and show up, they would be hungry. 3) Have a MOH who does absolutely nothing. I'm very self-sufficient. As long as she's there that day to provide support, I'm good :)4) No makeup, I hardly wear any anyways. 5) The Electric Slide, boogie oogie oogie..

    1) Have your dress rip when you walk down the isle? OR Get some red wine spilled on it during the reception? Rip, you can always sew it up so you can see it as much2) Have people RSVP 'yes' and not show up? OR Have people not RSVP at all and show up?not RSVP and show up.  We have to pay for our our final bill before the wedding.  We can always add people but not deduct them.3) Have a MOH who does abolutely nothing? OR A MOH who tries to control the whole thing?A more involved one is definately better4) No makeup? OR No hair-do?no make up...I could do my own hair if I had to5) The Macarena?

    1) Have your dress rip when you walk down the isle? OR Get some red wine spilled on it during the reception? Def the wine later at the reception - after the formal pics 2) Have people RSVP 'yes' and not show up? OR Have people not RSVP at all and show up? Have people not RSVP and show up - but like many PPs, I plan on calling them before. 3) Have a MOH who does abolutely nothing? OR A MOH who tries to control the whole thing? Eh, I guess one who tries to control the whole thing only since I would feel confident that I could manage the pressure. 4) No makeup? OR No hair-do? No make-up - I can do my makeup fine, but need the hair did!! 5) The Macarena? OR The Electric Slide? Electric Slide, followed by Cotton Eye Joe lol

    Would you rather:1) Have your dress rip when you walk down the isle? OR Get some red wine spilled on it during the reception?Red wine at the reception.  Having it ripping in the middle of the ceremony would be pretty disruptive.2) Have people RSVP 'yes' and not show up? OR Have people not RSVP at all and show up?Not RSVP and show up.  We're doing heavy hors d'oeuvres, so we have some flexibility to deal with extras.  I'd like to have as many friends as possible there.3) Have a MOH who does abolutely nothing? OR A MOH who tries to control the whole thing?Absolutely nothing.  I picked my daughter, who lives across the country, as my MOH.  She will likely help us set up the synagogue for the ceremony, and help us prepare dinner that night.  Other than that, I did not expect her to do anything other than show up and look decent.4) No makeup? OR No hair-do?No  make-up.  I haven't worn make-up in the past 40 years anyway, so what's one more day?5) The Macarena? OR The Electric Slide?I wouldn't be able to do either of them, so what does it matter?

    In response to the 1st question. I told my future husband I wanted to spend the night before our wedding together (we already live together) because I would be nervous and he'd calm me down. He asked why would I be nervous. And I said I'm worried about tripping down the isle or spilling food all over my dress. His response "Why are you nervous about something you know thats going to happen?" Followed by one of my bridesmaids saying they can make me a bridal bib.

    I might have to change my vote from Macarena to the Electric Side. The slide ended up being a lot of fun for many people at a wedding I was in last night.
