ORIGINAL: xssve Oh fuck, I'm there - after that the reception has gotta be off the hook. That would presumably depend on the people involved. Some people like to get tribal, others like to keep things low key. Course, if you've married into the McSwingers clan, it might get a bit over the top, but I'm guessing smart people pick their invitations based on who won't crash the party. quote:
Seriously, it actually sounds kind of cool, I mean you kiss all kinds of people, you kiss your mother - how many people do you piss on? Lately, not very many. In one instance, slightly more than a dozen people at once (long story). But, yes, it clearly distinguishes the whole thing, although I would go with something more along the lines of "you may now claim the bride", or whatever. Adjustments for gender where appropriate. I am inclined to think it makes for something far more memorable than kissing, in any case, and far less venal than a quickie on the altar. quote:
Finding someone to perform the ceremony might be a bit of a trick... I'm ordained in one of the free churches, technically speaking. I just have to fill out the paperwork to be able to do the legal parts of it. But that imparts the duty of providing sacraments to anyone eligible that asks, hence I have been putting it off until I'm ready to "open shop", so to speak. It shouldn't be hard to find someone in your area that would be willing to do it. Finding a suitable location would probably be harder. Health, al-Aswad.
