Have you ever been to a wedding where someone raised an "I object" at the moment?

Heck Yeah!!!  It was the funniest think I have ever seen in my life.  The groom was a real jerk anyway so I don't feel any remorse in laughing.  Some friends of the bride and mutual friends of ours, actually videotaped the groom hitting on some freaky girl outside the bachelor party.  He was not drunk at all and he was on tape explaining to the girl that he was just marrying for appearences that the girl he was marrying was just so that he could have someone to come home to when he wasn't out on the town.  The actual convo was a little more graphic than that but you get the point.  Well during the ceremony there was a video of the bride and groom playing, you know those cheesy ones that everybody has that have pics from growing up and all.  Anyway during the middle of the tape, the screen (that is just to the left of the bride) goes blank and up pops this tape that was made (covert like from behind the bar) the audio is crystal clear and everyone is watching this tape and horrified.  Well the reverend that was performing the ceremony says, well I guess that was an objection.  All hell breaks loose after that and we had one hell of a party later.  Sooooo funny!!!! My friends RULE!!!

On one's wedding day, one is like a King and Queen, and so lifting them up is like treating them like royalty, like putting them on a throne. The same is done for the other family members, and for the same reason, unbridled joy!!

That is what I am doing and I am doing it because it is something that my grandmother did.  When I called off my wedding I was very sad but I knew that I threw a ton of money down the drain and I had a dress that I would never wear.  My grandmother called me a told me that she was proud of me and that she called off her wedding one month before she was suppose to walk down the aisle.  She said that she loved her dress and that she sill wanted to wear it so she did two years later and they were marred for over 53 year until my grandmother died.  She said to me that any man worth his salt will not care about when you bought the dress but that you look great in it.  Don’t worry be happy if you love the dress wear it if you cant sell it on eBay.  Just be happy and thankful that this time you are choosing the right guy to marry.

Absolutely.  I just got married and I had an "ex-girlfriend" only table at the wedding.  One of the highlights of our wedding album is a picture of my wife and I along with the 4 ex's.

If your fiancee wasn't the one making the stand, then you don't need to do anything.  If you want to invite him, then do it.  If you don't want them at your ceremonies, then don't invite them.  \nIf your guests decide not to show up because of that, then that's on them.\nYou can't get caught in the middle.  Let the people who are offended take their stand and let the gay people and the offended argue over this.  You are not going to be able to play peacemaker in this situation.\nPeople are going to stand for what they believe in and you are not going to resolve this issue with them.\n\nBut since your fiancee has a problem with gay people in his home, then you either need to side with your fiancee or get a new one.  If you are divided over this issue, it will cause too many problems with your marriage since your brother is gay and you seem to be close to him.  Part of marriage is becoming "one flesh".  If you are going to allow this to divide your marriage, that means you do not have the intention of becoming "one flesh" and you will remain divided and have an unhappy marriage.\n\nYou're going to have to choose sides in this case.  Marriage is about siding with your spouse.  If you don't respect him in this case, then you shouldn't get married.\n\nYour fiancee is taking a stand for what he believes in and I respect him for it.  These days, people think we should tolerate everything for the sake of peace.  I disagree totally.  If we tolerate everything, then evil will prevail.  I don't care if I'm called a bigot, a homophobe, gay basher or whatever PC name they label me as.  I would take the same stand as your future husband.

engagement is not a legally binding contract (any more) so go ahead - but wait for the decree absolute before any wedding preparations!

NO! It's rude to invite people to just the ceremony and not the reception to begin with UNLESS they are not having a reception.  If they are not having a reception then they probably don't expect a gift anyways.  I wouldn't even go-the whole situation is really rude.

Sometimes...it just depends on what airline & the kind of mood the person is in when you tell them. We told the lady at the ticket counter. When we got on the plane they announced our wedding & gave us a bottle of Champagne. I've had friends try this though, and nothing happened.

Your officiant could just skip the question all together.  It was not in the ceremony for my wedding.  My dad was my officiant and he gave me away.  I was concerned how this would work, but he said that the question was not in the order of worship that he uses, so there was no problem.  Unless you specifically want the question, ask that your officiant skip it, if it is in his usual ceremony.

No, but we had exotic dancers at our wedding.  We're just wild that way.

I did, and I also was a bridal consultant at a few.  Alternative weddings are big these days, and I love doing them because they show the personality of the people involved instead of a string of traditions that have no meaning anymore.\n\nFor my wedding, I wore a beautiful blood red silk and black chiffon dress, had black magic roses everywhere, had the ceremony and reception at an old cabin surrounded by gardens and redwood trees, and we wrote our own vows, based on old Celtic vows.  Everyone loved it, even those in  my family that traditional Christians.

I didn't myself - you dont realise what a control freak you are until it comes to your wedding.  I wanted to be in charge of every little deal because I didn't trust else as much as myself to get what I want.  I'm a very strong minded person and know my own mind so was best left in charge.\nI loved every minute of planning my wedding, it's part of the fun of getting married - I'd do it over again in a heartbeat.

My mom set me up on a blind date with my fiance. She met him and called me at work to say she met the man for me. She set up a "friendly" meeting for us with my sister and his cousin that night and we both knew instantly that we had a connection. Less than two years later we got engaged and now we are planning a wedding for this August. =)

Yes.  I do wedding videos.  At a recent wedding the bride was upset about something with the food being served, and then took it out on everyone.  She began yelling at the DJ, then told the photo guy to leave and yelled at my assistant for pointing the camera in her direction.   I can understand being stressed out but this was a bit much.
