But if there WERE chances of falling off a cliff or getting eaten by a giant sea monster, it would make for a very exciting wedding!

I disagree I would have totally clicked "Edge of a massive cliff with huge man-eating sea creatures circling at the bottom" for your ceremony location.
Just call me "Brothel"
And betrothed, I'm disgusted with most of the comments that you have posted. I don't think I've ever read such judgmental comments in my life. I'm so lucky that the girls I speak to on theknot are nothing like you...I would've never come on here for ADVICE if I would've encountered a big a bitch as you. I genuinely feel awful for your children or your future children, and I think it would be irresponsible of YOU not to invest in their future therapy sessions starting now. Because trust me when I tell you honey, they're gonna need it. ~jcaruncho2010

I think there should be some sort of obstacle course involved that guests have to pass in order to get dinner.
ETA: By "pass" I mean "live through"

Yes! And I think there should be a distinct possibility of maiming in the obstacle course. What's a wedding without a bloody stump or two?
I made a bio?!?
I think Celles receiving line should be on an old wood and rope bridge that falls apart and you walk across - and be over a pit of lava.

A lame wedding, that's what!
BTW, Your sig pic makes me laugh every time!
[QUOTE]waffling makes me think of ONE thing....
Posted by Jelenny[/QUOTE]
WIN.
Celles, seriously, show us the dresses.
Right now, it's a choice between (a) insisting on my favorite--
-- and (b) letting each of my three bridesmaids choose the style that suits her in the same fabric and color.
MOH and BM #1 are on board with (a), and are actually pushing for it. They're my two oldest friends in the world and they know how very rare it is for me to declare an opinion, so the fact that I even have a favorite (they say!) tells them that I really, really want it. But FSIL is concerned that my choice won't flatter her, and has chosen a different dress that I feel is a little too casual and won't coordinate as well with my dress:
Side note: my choice isn't very flattering until you pair it with a sash. It doesn't have a waist of its own, so it needs a sash tied either under the bust (to create an empire waist) or at the natural waist in order to drape prettily. FSIL tried it on in a size that was too small for her and with no sash, so I think she has a somewhat skewed perspective of it.
Anyway, I told my MOH about 20 minutes ago that I was just going to ask everyone to choose her own style within my parameters (short or cocktail length chiffon with satin accents); that's when she FtLoZ'd me. She wants me to make the decision that makes ME happy and stop trying to compromise -- which runs contrary to all of the advice we give and get here.
So, yeah. /waffle

Oh, LedZepp, you are killing me today. All of your suggestions are perfection. Get out of my head :)
I also just realized I quoted the wrong post. I love the idea of a rickety bridge over a boiling lake of lava. In fact, I will be calling my church and venue immediately to see who can arrange this.

Can I come?
[QUOTE]In this case I agree with your MOH. Tell them to get the one you like the best.
Posted by betrothed123[/QUOTE]
As for the dresses, I agree with this.
I say go with your first choice and be done with it. FSIL will come around when she tries one on in her size or she won't and y'all can laugh about what you made her wear at family gatherings 10 years from now.
