Don't races usually require entrance fees? Just wondering whose gonna foot the bill for your bridal party. I mean, I know they're doing this cause they totes love you and totes would do anything for you and this sounds totes amaze, but ya know...you gonna shell out them dollas or do they get the privilege of paying to crawl through mud?
Somewhere above all of your sarcasm you'll scroll up through and see that I was paying for the race for any of the bridal party that wanted to do it.
The point of the entire post was getting a team name. Everyone else has made their arguments and posted their thoughts, gifs and some very good points that hadn't been considered. I have appreciated the good points and a few of the gifs. The only purpose of this post, has been to get a team name. It's not trolling, it's trying to get people back to the actual purpose of the post. I understand your points and they will be taken into advisement and discussed when I talk to the bridal party about this race again. We haven't registered for the race yet and we may not all end up doing the race. Now please, team names for the race?
Girl. No one is interested in helping you come up with a name for your bad idea. Especially not with the condescending attitude.
With all due respect people, she asked for good team names, she didn't ask for a shot down of her idea. Whether or not you think it's dumb, this thread was about names for her team. I believe it is some of you who have the comprehension problems and not her...
Jeezus. I go on a hiatus thinking things would change around here, but dang, ladies, seems like everyone has forgotten their nice pills lately...
Hey, I'm going to murder my husband. Where should I bury the body?
You can murder my ex too if you'd like. Just make sure you bury him with beer & a burrito

She may not have asked them to do it with her - they may have just said on their own that they want to. It would be different if she had asked them to, but being that that doesn't seem to be the case, they should pay for it themselves. I don't think she is obligated to pay for them unless she demanded they do it - though it would be nice, it's not required. Those races are not that much $$. Also, this seems like a smaller type race based on the length. It isn't even a 5k.

Don't bury the body, dogs will find it. In stead get a plastic tub and some acid. And the first season of Breaking Bad.
But what should we name the plastic tub?

OMG DYYYYINNGGGGG.
I don't care what anybody says, ya'll are awesome.

I have a team name: I'm getting married today so this is a horrible idea, but I ignored everyone who said I shouldn't do this.

Or is that too long?
It fits and it's available but it might be hard for the announcer to spit that out.
Let's aim for something 7 words or less for the name. It can be snarky but there will be children in the spectator crowd so it can't have any colorful language.

I love that you're concerned about the bolded but none of the very real concerns people have been talking about for five fucking pages.

Hey if people want to go off on their own path from the purpose of this post I can't stop them, I can however continue to try and get people back on the point. As I said previously I have heard some good points that I hadn't thought of before and those will be taken under advisement. The race may not have me running or my bridal party running. The groom and a few of his friends and groomsmen are doing it regardless of whether or not I do it and would still like a fun wedding themed name.

Girl. Seriously.
Your FI ought to take into advisement the issues raised in here too. They're valid for him as well.

It's not multivariable calculus or quantum mechanics here - I find it hard to believe that between you, your FI, and your wedding party you couldn't rub enough brain cells together to come up with something and had to go trolling internet strangers for suggestions. We're not the ones racing - shouldn't this be meaningful to you all? I mean, you are willing to potentially sacrifice being good hosts to participate in it, after all.
Much like the people who ask for hashtags - not everything has to be witty and creative. And if you're not witty and creative - then just tough luck. Not everyone has the good fortune of wit and creativity and gets the reap the rewards of that. Hell, people might not even recognize you or your team name if you just walk in there with something witty and creative if you've proven time and time again that you just simply lack those attributes.

Maybe it's time for another hiatus. Luckily for OP, she got joke names AND a shot down of her idiotic idea. It's like a lagniappe!
ETA: I have to comment on the logic fail too. @owningahomewhatever, you went on a hiatus "thinking things would change around here." Because you were on a hiatus? You left (which as far as I can tell nobody actually noticed), and you thought that the absence of your sparkling with and personality would inspire us all to change?

Here's me going off on my own path because it's a better use of my time than helping you come up with some stupid cheesey name for a stupid idea
OP - This is one of the most ridiculous ideas I've heard of for a wedding day. I got married at 6pm and my day started in the salon at 7am. I didn't have a free moment until the last half hour before the ceremony started.

What, did you think that we would miss your presence so much that we'd change our ways immediately? You think taking a hiatus could change the culture of a well-established board?
Wow, ya'll still here? This chick is more trolly than the one who wanted an interview on a Sunday.
I honestly don't think so. I really think that she came here looking for back pats about what a cool idea this was, under the guise of looking for A stupid team name.
Why did it take some of you guys 7+ hours to get ready on your wedding day? That's absurd.
Many of us set up our own venues. Some of us did floral arrangements ourselves and had to make finishing touches. Some of us had rather complicated hairstyles. Some of us got extensions. Some of us had bridal parties who also chose to use our stylists to get their hair and makeup done. Some of us had children to get ready.
There are plenty of things to do, Judgy McJudge Pants.

Haha, go ahead and sleep in, play 18 holes, a leisurely lunch, and just show up 30 minutes before your ceremony starts. Come back and let us all know how that goes.
I had 6 bridesmaids, 2 flowergirls, & 2 moms getting ready with me for my wedding. Everyone had updos and about half opted for airbrush makeup as opposed to regular makeup. Hair, makeup, breakfast, mimosas, pre-wedding pictures, lunch, flower delivery, transportation to venue, first look only took us 5 hours.

Well seeing as I had one hairstylist and one MUA to do 4 people's hair and makeup then we needed to start at 8:30am so that we could leave my house at 1pm to get to the reception space no later then 2pm. I wanted to give myself some extra time because you never know what may happen with traffic or hair and makeup may run long, etc. After looking at the ceremony area and the reception area being set up and getting settled in our bridal suite I was able to relax for 30 minutes and eat some snacks. Then at about 2:45pm I got dressed and the photographer showed up at 3pm to start taking pre-ceremony pictures. Then at 4pm I started to get super anxious and at 4:25pm I said, "lets get this show on the road" and at 4:27pm I was walking down the aisle.
So yeah, you kind of have to start early if it is more then just you getting dolled up.

Clearly a troll.

Make sure you warm up and eat your calories though, otherwise your groom might be too tired to fuck you at the end of the night.
