| Since there are three couples that I know of on the board, I thought this thread would be interesting.
What would your dream wedding be like? Right down to flowers, seating, and food. That is if you plan on having those sorts of things. (Last edited by Makura on 05-03-05 03:42 PM) |

| Elegant.
My wedding is (both of us have already agreed on everything) going to be on a river bank. Green grass. There River will be in the background, behind the bride and goom. Proably mid-summer, so yes, hot, but the ceremony will be quick. I wil be wearing a dress I designed, a Sleeveless white satain dress, form fitting until the waist, where it will losely flow. At the waist, the Satin will be covered in very fine yellow silk, split in the front, so there's a triangle of the white satain, but the rest is covered by the pale yellow silk that coveres the rest of the length of the dress. I will be wearing long white gloves until time to place the ring on the finger, of course. The reception will be beautiful. I can't decide of apple cider would do well in a fountain or not, but there will be fountains in the corners of the room. If Cider would work, then you can get your cider from the fountains. If not, the fountains would be water. The tables would have low bowl arrangements in them, of cream, peach, and white flowers. The arrangements would be in a low bowl as to see over the table at the other members of your party. The tables would be candle lit, and the overall lighting in the room is dim. The tables are around the dance floor, where the bride and goom do their first dance. Then everyone can join in. The cake is tall and elegant. Not frilly. Clean cut. Maybe decorated with real flowers. There will be side cakes for those who want different flavors. Yes, a very expensive wedding, but worth every penny. Honeymoon trip to either Hawaii or a Europe trip to France and Italy. |

**swoons** omg Evo...how gorgeous! Draw a picy of that dress and post it too damn it!!! 
My dream wedding...um...yah...haven't really thought of it...not even as a little girl did I have all these dreams about a wedding...I pretended that I was a superhero instead.
Anywho...This looks like a fun idea to play around with and just think up something. When I do, I'll post it.  'til then...**looks around for her Marvel comics** |

| Well, mine will be outdoors, me and Cryus agreed on that... and it will be a Wiccan Handfasting.
I'm figuring near a lake or something, perhaps at El Dorado state park or something, since it would be way too much to have it at Big Sur. Anywho, it will most likely happen at sunset or near it at least. The colors will be black and red. I will be wearing a simple, almost Renaissance-style white dress with a garland of red flowers in my hair, which will be pulled back and braided, and my bouquet will be red flowers as well, perhaps roses. I read that in Wiccan traditions the bride wearing red is a good thing, so I figure this works perfectly with the color scheme. All the brides maids (I'll most likely have 5 or so), will be wearing red dresses that will also be simple... need to work on how they will look. As for the guys, all of them will be wearing all black suits (suit, shirt, tie, cummerbund, etc). Cryus will be wearing nearly the same thing, except that his tie and cummerbund will be red. The ceremony will be preformed by a high priest or priestess (whatever we can get, both if we can), and will include the traditional binding the hands together and then jumping over a broom. The reception (since you said "dream wedding") would be at some Italian restaurant with an outdoor garden for receptions with a dance floor and all that as well as twinkle lights and flowers with red candles on the tables. The food would be chicken fettucine alfredo with cheesy garlic rolls, salad, and some other types of food (not sure). Wine and cider would be served for drinks of course, with me and Cryus using pewter goblets from Renfaire that have dragons making a heart. When the time for the first dance comes, we will open with our song (Broken by Seether w/ Amy Lee), and then continue with a variety of rock songs (remixes of some) and festive folk music like you hear at Renaissance Faires. We would even have the Bold and Stupid Men from the Faire perform for the guests, since they were so awesome to help with the proposal and all. Now, in reality we're probably going to have the reception either at a house or a hall, with catered food (I still want my alfredo!); but first song will still be Broken, and the music would most likely still be like that. |

| Elara, won't it be awkward to have a Wiccan handfasting in front of a bunch of relatives and such? I know it would be for me, considering most of them are hard core Christian and Catholics. O.o
Dream wedding... hmm.. I'll have to think about it. >.> |

| Well I look at it this way: None of his family will be attending, that is pretty much certain. Maybe a few members, but that is it. As for my family, well... I'm pretty sure that some of them won't show up either out of protest, but if they do then I see it as payback for having to sit through my cousin's super long, super Christian wedding.
I'm not going to have the uber-handfasting that confuses all non-pagans though, that one is a bit too much. I've seen much simpler ones (made for those who will have non-pagans in attendance), and we'll probably go with one like that... I just really want the broom jump. |

WhiteRose Warrior Sailor Delerium Have you ever spent days and days and days making up flavors of ice cream that no ones ever eaten before?

| Honestly, though I am engaged, I never though of a dream wedding. I guess I really don't have anything set. Closet thing would be the same as Elara's pretty much. I would honestly be very happy with a simple handfasting ceremony with a few close friends there and then having a pot luck afterwards at my home. | |||

| I agree with WhiteRose. The ceremony really to me is not THAT important. It is important of course and I know that it will be a memory that should stick with you for the rest of your life.
Personally I already consider Heather my wife and I her husband. She's mine, I'm her's, that's all that matters to me. A simple handfasting works for me. A full out ceremony works for me. A complex involved beautiful ceremony with a huge guest list catered food flowers and music works for me. In the end the result is the same. Heather and I are bound by our feelings for each other and the desire to spend our lives together which to me is more important and lasting than any ceremony and papers saying that legally we're married. When we plan our wedding I will have some ideas to contribute of course but I say whatever she wants and will make her happy is more than enough for me. |

| *eyes fill up* Awww... Pockets, you're a sweetie
One question though: I've never heard of a handfasting, what is it? And another thing, my wedding will not be huge, but if any oif my online friends want to come, they're welcome. |

| A handfasting is a Wiccan ceremony. (it might be the same for other pagan religions but I'm not positive.) It can be done in such a way as to be legally recognized by the state. It's a fairly simple ceremony as far as I understand it though I'm no expert and amon other things consists of binding one of the bride and grooms hands together with a ribbon and they also jump over a broom.
There's more to it but Elara or WhiteRose would be able to explain it better than I can my knowledge of it is not that extensive. |

| Oooh... so it's more of like a party than a ceremony. I mean it is, but there's still some fun in it. I'd like to jump over a broom, lol, but I'm too... I dunno, reserved for that. I would, just not at my wedding.
My mum has a license to marry people, she did something like that, took a cord and bound the bride and goom's hands together. Or something. I wasn't there, but she had a script, and I read it. Looked interesting. And Venom : no. Just no. Come up with anything yet, Katie? |

| *Takes one of Katanas tissues. Gives it to someone entering Xeoland*
Well, I wanted my wedding (when it coems in about oh...some years up ahead) to be on the Death Star, but nooooo...it had to be destroyed! 
I wouldn't mind it at night (the ceremony), under a full et of stars, and the moon and everything. And a river or something, so it can all reflect off of it. Kinda corny, but it would be quite pleasant and pretty. But then of course, if it's at night, there won't be much time for "afterwards" stuff, other than some late night after wedding partying. w00t. |

  No...no ideas yet... So tough...going from laughing when the kid tells a bathroom joke in class (like yesterday a kid farted, and I laughed my ass off), to talking about weddings...  Though the Death Star sounds pretty cool...hmmm....'how 'bout the Milleniumn Falcon?
And Jen...where's that dress?! You said you designed it...so post it damn it! |

Originally posted by Katana Nah, I'd rather have a crapload of Stormtroopers, along with Darth Vader at his best attending the wedding in a big open space (like one of the landing docks), then be cramped in the Millenium Falcon with a glare-tastic protocol droid who won't shut up, an R2 unit who backtalks and always gets into trouble, a loud stinky Wookie, a princess, a smuggler who has a Bounty on his head by one of the Galaxies biggest crimelords, and a wuss boy who needs a diaper change every hour or so. |

Originally posted by The PoliticianOriginally posted by Katana K, diaper boy and princess can go...but the Wookie stays!! As for the droids....spare parts! The smuggler...he can stay. Can't have a Star Wars wedding without your favorite charrie and favorite ship. (well, the MF and Han are my favs)
But that would be neat...like in that scene in "Return of the Jedi", when Emperor Palpatine arrived...nice little isle to walk down if I do say so myself. |

| I want mine inside one of those bouncy houses (that kids parties sometimes have) filled with hydrogen and the ceremony will take place as the bouncy house is being dropped from a helicopter 555 yards over hollywood/highland train station and once we reach 230 feet we would all jump out and parachute down as the bouncy house is automaticly ignited and explodes in a giant fireball with confetti and melted bounce house raining down to announce our union...*sigh*...guess i am just an old fashioned hopless romantic.... | |||
