It's disturbing how pervasive the misconception of "Lolita" is. That book is a horror story told from the perspective of the monster. He's an emotionally stunted child abuser who destroys his victim's life while romanticising the abuse, and is writing the story from jail after being convicted for murdering a different child abuser out of jealousy. But somehow "Lolita" ended up being synonymous with "adolescent temptress" instead of "child abuse victim", and people quote the damned thing like it's a romance.

[@allstarsrgone]

I know its not exactly the same thing but i feel like thats what happened with killing stalking. A straight dude whos also a murderer takes advantage of a gay guy whos in love with him and uses him as a mother figure and sex toy. Its a psychological horror. There is a fuck ton of abuse. But its been taken as a bl story. There is no love in it but teens cosplay and ship the characters. Feels icky

[@AliceBunny05]

​@@allstarsrgoneoh my god, please. I cannot tell you how much it bothers me that people portray killing stalking as a BL story. He is a straight, psychotic, but sexually abusive serial killer. He only has sex with that (also mentally twisted) boy because he reminds him of his mother who sexually abused him as a child! like what are these people thinking.. I can't even put into words how extremely unfortunate it is that it became popular among teenagers, because it's really a scarring experience to read.

[@anthill1510]

That`s because people (especially in religious circles) seriously say "she was tempting him" when a young teenage girl is abused. They actually think it`s that instead of a victim being abused.

[@rororama3557]

The Lolita thing is crazy to me, I would say they must have known about the book, it's a very very famous book, it was adapted to film twice (once by Kubrick, but it's a very bad adaptation, Nabokov hated it) and Nabokov is one of the greatest writer of the XXth century but since you both don"t know it, I'm not so sure anymore... And I need to add a little more context about the book, it's not a love story at all, it's the story of a pedophile who marries a woman to gain access to her 11 years old daughter and then kidnaps the child, rape her, and travels with her until she escapes. Since she is a child she's clearly manipulated by him. Nabokov write the story as it is, even if it's from the pedo point of view, her suffering is always there, present through the book. But the narrator never acknowledges it, you have to think about what you are reading, always remember WHO is telling the story you're reading. If you're a decent person you understand from the beginning that the narrator is a sick pervert, the opening is quite clear about it, the guy is disgusting. This book is beautiful and awful at the same time, but what's really crazy about that is that when it was published, a lot of middle age men read it and assumed that it was her fault, since we see her through the pedo eyes, and they were all so misogynistic they couldn't see what was really happening there. Sadly, that is why we use the term Lolita to describe pretty and girly young girls until today. Nabokow himself was always very clear about the subject of this book, in every interview about it he always said : the book is about a sick pervert man who takes advantage of a child. It's a story about perversion, sickness and domination, and a reminder that the narrator of a story is only telling you what he wants, what he thinks, not always what is really happening, like in real life, a point of view is always just that, a point of view.

[@meaj4556]

I am always so flabbergasted when people actually use the term "lolita", meaning seductive, teenage, girl. It's so incredibly disgusting. 🤮

[@rororama3557]

@@meaj4556 Unfortunately it says a lot about how the world sees women, even to this day : through the lens of male desire, and the fear of the power this desire gives to women, so much so that they could not see the child in this story, only the man's desire. Its a perfect illustration of the power struggle between these two genders, the constant fear that a lot of men have of losing the power they have over women because of their own lust and lack of control over it. Even in a story as awful as this one, even when the narrator begins his tale explaining that he is attracted exclusively by little girls (from 9 to 12yo if I remember correctly), even if she cries in her bed and try to escape, some men will still conclude that it was the child fault, that she is manipulating him because, well, she's a "woman" and therefore everything she does is meant to attract men. The lollypop imagery is very revealing, when we see a child enjoying a candy, they see a women licking something, and they think about their penises. And this way, it's always our fault, their violence, their need to control us, it's always our fault, because everything we do is for them, so we should be held responsible for their own actions, we provoked it, even at 11 years old, so the violence is justified. It's sick and unfair and the fight to be considered as normal human beings is not over for us.

[@fevre_dream8542]

Nabokov is such an excellent writer honestly, but I think it makes a lot of people overlook the core of the work - Lolita is about a sick, twisted, vile pedo and the only reason there's a sympathetic cast over it is because it's from _his_ point of view.

[@rororama3557]

​@@fevre_dream8542 I disagree. It's a way to make the reader think about what they are really reading, but most people understand he is sick and she is a victim. I remember how shocked and disgusted by him I was (the narrator) the first time I opened the book... And, well, it gets worse through the story. And his disgust for Lolita post puberty ads even more to our own disgust of the guy. I honestly can't understand how anyone could not feel the same. It would never happen with a story with a muderer p.o.v. nobody would say "it's the victim's fault, they provoked it"

[@rororama3557]

@@fevre_dream8542 And I'm quite positive that even the same story with a little boy instead of Lolita would have been read way differently by all the same people who thought Lolita was seducing him.

[@austin.luther]

I have mixed feelings about my wedding. It was very nice and everything, but I was a very closeted trans man so remembering it is very dysphoric. The first person I came out to was my husband after nearly 10 years of marriage; he wasn't surprised and we're very happily still together. So, the wholesome wedding story is after being married for 12 or 13 years we were going through our big bedroom closet and cleaning it out. My husband pulled out from the very back my wedding dress and asked, "Are we keeping this?" I asked if he would be upset if I didn't want to keep it and he said no, it was fine. Then he shoved it into the trash bag. I was so relieved; my husband is the best!

[@FireKattana]

My husband is also a trans man, and was in the closet when we met (but transitioned before we married.) I'm glad that your husband stood by you during your transition, and that you're still happy. May you enjoy many more happy years together!

[@nathryl03]

(Feel free to ignore this completely, just expressing the idea my sometimes silly brain came up with) If you feel like you would like that, maybe you could have a renewal of vows, so you get wedding pictures and memories that match the real you :)

After all, it's only a piece of fabric. The best memory of your wedding day is the person that didn't hesitate to put that same piece of fabric in the trash because he loves you exactly the way you are 😊 I think it's really sweet ☺️

Oh my God you guys should do a re-wedding! But now a wedding as husband and husband.

Maybe try something new from the past wedding as well.

[@halem6580]

The thing with the wife hating her husband's gaming isn't usually just that he doesn't approve of his hobby. It usually has more to do with him not holding up his end of the household/family duties and not making any time for her hobbies. That being said, this is a horrible cake and that couple is probably not long for this world.

[@merilynnshark6144]

And that's where communication is important!

[@Anima19925]

I think you're right. As a girl who games (like video games are my special interest) and is also in a het-relationship, its annoying/frustrating to see this type of behavior "normalized". I think couples should communicate and work together to take care of the household, but also not squander each other's interests and hobbies. Enjoying video games shouldn't be demonized, if someone's partner isn't doing their fair share of taking care of household duties that's the real issue that should be worked through.

Wholesome wedding story time! My aunt married the love of her life in 2016 as soon as it was legal for her to do so. They were on a tight budget at the time as they had just bought their first house, so the entire family came together to host a wedding for them. My family ordered a cake (with rainbow roses, of course!), my grandmother provided drinks, the in-laws brought appetizers... The newlyweds made their vows in the living room of their new house, and then we all went outside and had a bonfire. It was so lowkey but so full of love!

About knowing the context of quotes...there is a german medievel-folkband that has a song called "Hochzeitstanz" (weddingdance). Fans used it on their actual weddings as a dance.

My friends Mary and Dave met through local science fiction and fantacy fandom and got married in 2009. One of my favorite parts of the ceremony was the reading of a quote from Dr Seuss, which I thought was sweet and wholesome: "We are all a little weird and life's a little weird, and when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall in mutal weirdness and call it love." By the way, they're still together and very much in love 15 years later.

[@what_equals_42]

The last wedding I went to was my second cousin's. It was held on a beautiful farm in the mountains, in a paddock with a river running by it. The bride was late, as per tradition. Her sweetheart, a farm-raised young man from our hometown, was fidgeting at the altar with his groomsmen, and breaking out in a beaming smile every few minutes when he remembered who he was waiting for. And then, coming up on half an hour late, the lady arrived. Elvis Presley started playing out of someone's speakers- "I can't help falling in love with you". The bride began to walk up the aisle, on her father's arm. The groom turned around. He saw her in the dress for the first time... and that 6 foot tall man in a stetson and cowboy boots immediately burst into tears of joy. Completely unselfconscious tears, running right down his face. Smiling ear to ear. The whole family had known he was the one for years, but that was the moment I knew this was going to be forever. All the way through the ceremony, he couldn't take his eyes off her. Afterwards, the photographer had to keep telling him to look at the camera. And all the while, she was smiling right back at him. There are potential sources of tension in any union. My cousin and her beau are from different religious backgrounds: half the guests were sober vegetarians, the other half (my family) spent most of the night drunk and face-down in chicken wings. The couple have different personalities: the groom is laid back and easy-going; the bride is extremely efficient and organised. They were raised differently: the bride's from a semi-country beach-y/surfer culture; the groom is country all the way through. All that stuff doesn't have to mean a thing. As long as their love for each other is that openly communicated, they'll find a way to get past anything that life throws at them.

The theme was rainbow flag, and my husband sewed tablecloths from different fabrics to resemble rainbow flags.... He spent so much time and effort, no matter what he did they were hideous. He was so disappointed in his own work that he was about to rip them off or burn them in the fireplace, I had to act like I really liked how they looked and told him they were beautiful. Honestly, esthetically they weren't, but to me, that I know how much time he spent on them, they're beatiful.

Cute wedding story: My cousin just got married in October, one of the couple's hobbies is swing dancing. For their first dance they had a choreographed swing performance which ended in a dramatic and classic dip-and-kiss move. The parents on both sides also had swing dancing lessons for weeks beforehand so they could do swing for the father-bride and mother-groom dances. They also had their pro dancer friends do a group lesson for anyone who wanted to participate during the dinner. I didn't do the lesson but we always did some swing in school gym class, so I did what I could remember to La Vie En Rose with my aunt (grooms mom). I'm a trans man and she's very supportive so it was kindof a special moment for me to dance as a man for the first time. It was also my first time getting properly drunk and my cousins (both guys) and my uncle were excited for me to let loose and have flex my newfound confidence as a man for the first time, and even though they were also drunk they made sure I stayed safe💙🩵

[@FireKattana]

I'll also leave some happy wedding stuff for Shaaba, because I got married in October! We had our ceremony at the Renaissance Faire. It was absolutely amazing, they paraded us up from the entrance to the chapel, shouting "HUZZAH! THERE'S A WEDDING!" the whole way. I got to walk with my husband at the front of the parade, and while I am usually very shy about things like this, everyone was so supportive and the parted crowds (who were all just random Faire attendees!) were cheering for us and giving us their blessings as we walked and it was absolutely delightful. The weather was a little chilly, and had been rainy but was nice the whole time we were out in it - it started raining JUST as I started down the aisle, and then stopped again as soon as our ceremony was over, when we headed over to the reception area. After our reception, we got to sit in the prime seating area for the Joust, and while our champion ultimately did not win, it was still an amazingly fun experience. After the Joust, we got a personal blessing from the Queen (of the Faire) and it was genuinely one of the happiest days of my life. Our wedding favors? Little glass jars that my husband hand-made. Etched glass (with his art designs) filled with confetti and little battery-operated tea lights. And about half of them had sets of dice, because several of our guests were (like us) fans of Dungeons and Dragons. We didn't ask our guests to pay us for anything, because we were already asking almost all of them to fly across the country to be there with us.

Re Courtney/Nick/Brian - another option is that Courtney and Brian were getting ready for their wedding and found someone giving away wedding decorations from (another) Courtney and Nick's wedding that was supposed to happen on almost the same day. And they thought that it would be a fun joke for their guests to take them and do this. As clergy, I get to officiate at several weddings a year, and have many wholesome stories. Let me take the wedding/funeral story from here and give it a couple of more wholesome twists from weddings I've had in the past couple of years: 1) The day before the wedding, the uncle of one of the brides was admitted to palliative care. The brides asked if I could acknowledge this at the start of the ceremony, and work in a short prayer for the uncle. 2) The bride's father was dying, and the couple had planned to get married at his bedside with their family all around. Unfortunately father died, and what was going to be their wedding day was his funeral instead. The next week, they decided that they wanted to get married anyways - after all, they had the license, and the bride's adult daughter was still going to be in town for a couple more days. And so with 48 hours lead time, they got married under a small gazebo in a local park, with just the bride, groom, 2 witnesses (bride's daughter + a close friend) and the 2 children the couple were in the process of adopting. And me to make it legal 🙂

I have a wholesome wedding story to help heal the damage from this video! Well, actually two. I did get married during Corona, but it was a TINY affair at the Standesamt (like a courthouse wedding, but in Switzerland). We weren't even allowed to invite his whole immediate family (4 guests total allowed, a photographer, and our 2 witnesses), not to mention that it would've been IMPOSSIBLE for anyone in my family to be there, as borders were still closed. Well, my chosen family decided that they were going to make sure they were there with me in spirit, since they couldn't be there in person, so they contacted my husband without me knowing, sent him money, and he and his mom used that money to pay for my bouquet. He tells me this AS we're walking in the door, and I'm just crying the whole time, feeling the love from a quarter of the way around the world. Something a little funnier that happened was that we were required to have a translator, as I didn't speak German at the time, but as we got to the "I do" part (or just simply "Ja", in German), I recognize what I'm supposed to do before the translator has a chance to do her thing, and say "Ja". I was really excited to be getting married, ok? The officiant laughed and said that officially, she can't accept my agreement until the translator told me in English what I was actually agreeing to (which I think is a very good rule, all things considered) and we all had a good chuckle as I agreed for a second time and in two languages that I wanted to marry this man. It's nearly 3.5 years later, and it was still the best decision I've ever made. ♥️

My cousin got married in September of 22. Her husband is Romanian and they just had a beautiful combination of their cultures. The ceremony was in both English and Romanian for his family and hers. The reception had some traditional Romanian songs and we all learned some dances and danced together. It was honestly really beautiful.

[@MiffoKarin]

Husband and I got married in a tiny chapel in the countryside where I grew up, with only our closest families. We had "wedding crashers" in the form of two grey cat siblings from the nearest farmhouse, and we both love cats. My favourite picture from the wedding is husband and I standing outside the chapel doors waiting to go in once the music starts, and in the middle of the doorway there's a cat heading inside to join the ceremony. 😸

[@littlelizm329]

My wedding took place on my grandma's balcony, followed by tacos, cake, and homemade mead. We were slightly worried about the weather because it was rainy and windy all day, but it stopped and the was sunshine for just long enough for the ceremony, then it was rainy and windy again. There were about 20-30 people there. My mother-in-law gave several of us COVID. My dad heckled us during our vows. I wish I'd done it differently, but it was really good.

[@arthurspils2565]

When my cousin and her wife got married (I think they technically went to a registry the week before but that was just parents + siblings) they staged it as a three day festival style thing on some farm in north Derbyshire, everything in a big tent with the centrepiece being changed each day (where they stood, big bouncy castle thing, sumo costume mat) and the seats were haybales. Married by their mate who got a license for them, speech went: "If anyone has any objections to these two dirty, dirty lesbians being wed... piss off, you clearly aren't welcome here." Best wedding I've ever been to, and they've just had their second child 😊

[@girlajen]

For Shaaba's sanitary. Me and my wife had a low key wedding it cost £250 in total. My parents put on a bbq, we went to registry office. Dresses were hand made by my mum bridesmaid from a store in the sales. All matching pretty dresses. Guy were told find a suit any colour is find just be there. My wife was so stressed she cut open the button hole on her suit before she released pins were being passed round. the wedding day my wonderful wife took me home at 6pm tucked me up in bed an snuggled me to sleep as I was exauhted. 3 months later our first child joined the family. They had been at the wedding kicking me all day. 🎉me an my wife have two wonderful biological kids and have been happily married now for nearly 18years

[@acmc7143]

Low budget wedding story here: my dad’s side of the family was always very poor, and my cousin finally managed to get enough money to marry and have a party after - and of course everyone in the family offered to help him pay for it, so he could save up to buy a house. It was a wonderful party with just the close family members in a farm where part of the family lives - so no spending with venue. He had lost his mother a few years ago and there were lots of things to remember her, including letters she wrote. Yesterday their first child was born.

[@chaihuahua]

a rare time when the straights are okay was my ballet teacher's wedding a few years ago, i dont even remember their vows but i remember them being so sweet and thoughtful that i would rewatch the video of it and burst into happy tears because it was so lovely.

[@flamebloom4659]

About potluck weddings ( and wholesome story as a palate cleanser): My theater teacher had a very relaxed, second wedding. Her and her soon-to be husband showed up at the ceremony wearing a dress she made herself that made her look half like a hippie, half greek godess, and a red suit with purple leopard shoes for him. They were joking through their whole vows and overall having fun. For the reception, every neighbor of theirs brought out a table so the whole street had this massive long table and everyone brought something to eat and drink. Then we put on an excerpt of a comedy we prepared in their garden, someone else did a puppet show and the groom and his musician friends provided music. Good times, no stress, just merryment.

Y'all wondering about her and Auj. Yes it is in fact Jeremy and Audrey! They're a minimally famous couple here in the states and yes, she is known for being very self absorbed so it was most likely about making it HER day. Her husband is the "famous" one so I understand her not wanting it to be all about him and his family. And I am absolutely sure he's called her all of these. I've heard some of them! This video was fun.

[@JS-J]

At my brother’s wedding last March, they set aside a seat for the wedding photographer to sit and eat with the main wedding party and she was blown away at the gesture because it’d never happened before. It wasn’t really a traditional wedding or anything big, just a backyard thing with maybe 50-ish guests, but the photographer was just so touched that they not only had a seat assigned for her, but it was literally right up by the bride and groom so she could chat and enjoy the night with them and the rest of the guests. She was an amazing photographer with such an amazing spirit and personality, and it just gave me the warm fuzzies to see her get excited to be another guest. I don’t go to many weddings (and just got married in the courthouse myself) so I don’t know if wedding photographers usually get to be a part of the reception as well, but it seemed to be something special for her at least! I hope that’s a wholesome enough wedding story :) it was just a memorable for me, getting to see her joy, especially after chatting and hanging out with her all day.

[@CaptainDummyTalk2517]

My partner & I got married at a park. We had a small gathering of 20 people [us included]. We asked them to pay for parking [$5/car] since that had to be paid for on the day. Most were traveling in groups anyway & we volunteered to pay if needed; only 1 car took us up on the offer. Everything else we paid out of pocket, so we kept things simple. We let nature be our decor. Having looked at the prices for some wedding venues, I can understand the urge to ask your guests to contribute more than what we did. That's part of why we wanted to go with a more budget friendly option - to avoid asking that of our guests. Plus, I feel like places upcharge as soon as they hear 'wedding'.

[@mendicantcrow]

A wholesome story of my parent's broke wedding: They did everything as affordably as they could. They planned just to forgo a reception due to cost. My grandparents on both sides wouldn't hear of it. So the reception was in one of their backyards, and my grandmas got together and made sandwiches for everyone like you'd get at a church function. It was just a backyard party, but it meant so much to both of them that their parents worked together for this reception. There is some evidence that weddings with smaller budget last longer, and I like to think my parents are an example of that.

[@sjzara]

It’s not quite a wedding fail, but…. My “best man” had an idea for me stag do. She suggested we invite people I hadn’t seen in a very long time. No one came! I had no stag do. (The wedding (civil partnership in 2006) was wonderful).

Wholesome wedding moment for Shaaba: the hour before our wedding ceremony was very stressful because we had to decide whether to move the ceremony onto the covered patio or wait for the weather to clear. I was hidden away, and my wife is not good at making decisions. She didnt want to see me in my dress before the ceremony, so i had her put on her sleep mask so i could hug and comfort her in the stress

I (40 m) and my Husband (42 m) had a Hawaiian themed wedding back in July 2010. My family's favorite vacation spot is Hawaii, my parents and sisters have been there countless times I myself have been there 7 times in my life. So my partner and I thought it would be a perfect theme as we both don't enjoying dressing formal and we wanted it to be more of a party vibe. His family however is very catholic and were all questioning weather they would come to a gay wedding in Canada or not. Long story short they put aside their religion to be with and support their son. I was so happy to have his family come even if it meant doubling our budget. As soon as my in-laws agreed to come I found out that my mother-n-law likes to take over in planning big events. We were in constant communication and even ended up hiring a wedding planner. ( good thing they also chipped in for the wedding at that point.) Had our ceremony in a plant conservatory (who surprisingly enough had a under the sea theme going.) Perfect! Our reception at a hotel that had a massive inside atrium in the center of it so guests on his side and mine would have a place to crash if they drank to much. I had friends who personally did our photography and DJ, the tables were set with a blue center stripe of cloth over top of the white ones and had bird of paradise flower center pieces. Another part of the wedding was going to be gifted by my sister and brother-n-law. My slightly older sister ( I have two I'm the youngest of 3 kids) is part of the Polynesian Dance club( she actually owns and runs it now.) she hired the group for the wedding and put on a dance for everyone there. What I didn't know was planned was she by herself did the Hawaiian wedding dance for us. I was in tears and had to give her the biggest hug afterwords. The wedding went off without a hitch everyone had a great time. we had the Mai Tai drink as our wedding drink and it sold the most out of anything else. To this day from both sides of the family we get told that our wedding was the best they had ever been to. Everyone had an absolute blast! sorry if this has on a little long hope you enjoyed our wholesome wedding story.

I did go to a wedding that gave out hand sanitizer as favours, but it was 2021, and we were still legally required to wear masks during the ceremony. Also the theme was LOTR, which was the opposite of a wedding fail.

I agree a wedding + funeral mashup would overstimulate me bc i wouldn't know what to feel either

[@arcanadawn]

I'll share some things from our wedding. We are a couple of non-drinking gamers, who have some people who can have problems with drinking too much. Our solution? We toasted each other with our favorite caffeinated beverage at the time, it was a midday celebration, where kids were celebrated and welcomed, and adults got 2 drink tickets on us. Beyond that, they had to pay. Oddly enough, no drama ;) We also had a friend who repaired video game machines like you would find at an arcade, and, as a wedding gift to us, he set up several in the ball room, so people could play free of charge. I still have some *great* pictures of the littles doing their best at Dance Dance Revolution. Our centerpieces were all games and dice, so people (whom we did not assign seating to, wanting everyone to feel as comfy as possible) could get to know their table mates over a silly game or two. As to the food? We know littles can be picky, so we picked what the hotel called "Stadium food" (Sausages and such, with a Quinoa salad and some other options for our vegetarian guests)

[@melissaeen7016]

I've been to probably about fifty weddings in my life. I come from a big family with a lot of cousins, and my aunt owned a wedding decor company that I worked for as a teenager. My favorite wedding, out of all the ones I've been to, was also undeniably the cheapest. It was held in a friend's backyard in late spring. They didn't serve a meal, but they had pretzels and a small business owner with homemade fruit popsicles--so you could have strawberry or watermelon or mango. The bride wore a white sundress with bright pink flipflops, and the groom wore khaki shorts. Instead of a cake, they cut a watermelon into tiers. The whole event had an amazing energy, it was really about the couple and how happy they were, rather than making it about the event. It felt like a new beginning rather than a culmination of their relationship. That's the kind of wedding I want to have.

[@Eliza_and_Odin]

Shaaba! My uncle and I are super close (I don't have a relationship with my father so 🤷🏻‍♀️) and when they decided to get married, his wife wanted to make sure I felt like part of their family and asked me to be a bridesmaid. It was an incredibly beautiful day!

[@literalturtle8206]

I performed a handfasting for my sister and her wife in a park near our grandparents house so that they could attend and be the two witnesses on the marriage license. They're big wedding is later this year but this small ceremony was for our grandparents specifically and was an amazing celebration of my sibling in law joining the family

[@Rutanachan]

As a kid I lived close to a church, and there was a tradition to throw candy after a wedding to the kids that randomly show up from the neighbourhood XD So of course, I went there for a while every saturday or so to get some candy. One week, I was way to early and arrived when the wedding was about to start, so I sat down on the church's outer wall (it wasn't high) to wait. But the father of the bride saw me and enthusiastically called me to come inside. I told him I wasn't part of the wedding itself, but he didn't cared! XD So... I just sat there and was part of a wedding of total strangers lol Also, years later, I was addressed by the leader of our gospel choir. (Outside of the songs, we weren't religious per se, just a choir) I was the youngest member of the choir at the time, yet he came to me and told me that a couple wanted someone to sing at their wedding. (or rather, the SIL wanted to surprise the couple, something along the lines - it's been some decades XD) Originally, the bride would've wanted "My heart will go on", but the priest forbid non-religious songs, so I was supposed to sing Ave Maria. However, it was so on short notice, that there was no chance studying the song in time (I tried). So in the end, we (the girl on the organ and I) sneakily decided to ignore the priest and when the wedding day came, in the church, I sang "My heart will go on" and "I will ever love you". The priest couldn't do anything about it without destroying the wedding, so he had no choice XD HA! My mom told me later that when she was asked to sing at weddings, this was a common theme, and she always ignored the priests XD

My baba (grandmother) got remarried when I was pretty young (7 to 9 about). She had been divorced, which was extremely rare in our family, and had lived a good majority of her life alone. Obviously as a child I didn't understand what a big step it was for her to remarry, but looking back I'm glad that my childhood ignorance could help. I knew my baba only as Baba. Much like like Mama and Papa I assumed those to be their names. I got separated from my family and was asking for my Baba, only for people to ask what her name was. I didn't know, and I was very upset. Later my mother found me, and I learned that my baba's name was... Rada (joy). She was always very sweet to me and asked me if it was okay she was getting married (on her wedding day so a little as a joke), I told her along the lines "Your name is Joy, so you should have as much joy as you like." She cried and I was confused as a child, but now I know lol Each wedding is special!, sometimes for better or for worse lol

When my daughter and son in law got married they didn’t want all the mess and drama that goes along with it so we arranged it to be at my house and we called all the important people they wanted and told them that hey we are having a barbecue and will be sharing some very important news and wanted thank all to come to the house for the barbecue at 330. All the food was taken care of and there was no expectation of the people coming having to spend any money. When everyone got to my house I asked them all to line up in certain positions and brought out the person chosen to perform the marriage and then I told them all to have a seat for the wedding of my daughter and son in law. Shocked so many people but we were told they were so grateful that it wasn’t something they had to prepare and spend money on and be stressed over or worried about drama. Then we had the barbecue.

[@mirandarensberger6919]

I knew a couple who did something similar, long before I knew them, but they told me the story. They wanted their special people there, but they didn't want anyone to feel pressured to dress up or buy a gift, so they invited people over for a cookout. When all had arrived, the officiant dinged a fork on a glass to get everyone's attention, then launched into, "Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today..." Everyone started looking around in surprise, but they just went with it.

My mother walked down with her helping her throw the flowers. About halfway down she ran back and started picking them all up and putting the back in the basket 😅 to many giggles from the family. There were still a few left by the time it was my turn but was a hilarious way to start things. She's 16 now... i will have to remind her of this 😂

[@shyliek11]

Wholesome wedding moments: My moms best friends wedding was absolutely beautiful, but one of the sweetest moments was her husband did a father/son dance with his step father. Also at my aunts wedding, there was unfortunately a tragedy that occurred during the wedding. My grandfather was watching on live stream when he passed, which was quite sad but those who were with him said he passed as soon as she began walking down the aisle and told her he wanted to walk her down the aisle so he had to go. This meant a lot to her and she had a lovely wedding, having the entire family with her when he passed she said was an exceptionally special moment she’ll always be greatful for. To finish it with a happy one, at my moms wedding (i was one) apparently i was meant to walk down the aisle but got so excited to see my dad and my grandma i ran down the aisle so the only pictures of it are a tiny blur of a baby and my dad bending down to pick me up.

[@Jenntully]

Shaaba! My dad's wedding present to me when hubs and I got married was to bring my big brother. We live in Texas and due to finances, it was cheaper for us to DRIVE to Las Vegas and get married in one of the chapels there than to try and do a traditional wedding locally. No one but my mil and dad were able to go, so my dad brought my brother as my wedding present. It was awesome to have my family there as much as possible and we had a great time.

[@rosemarygrey990]

I was a bridesmaid in one of my childhood friend's wedding. For the rehearsal dinner, the bride and groom asked us to come in pajamas just so it would be more chill and comfy. The bride was wearing an oversized and well-loved TMNT onesie, and when she came down the aisle for rehearsal in her onesie, I looked over and saw the groom had the biggest grin and was ugly crying from just seeing his person walking down the aisle toward him.

[@arualblues_zero]

When my guy and I got married, we were a small group (20-ish people) of our closest relatives and dear friends, on a cozy touristy boat sailing down the Spree river (Berlin). There was an improvised DJ who tried his best to play some Latin American music (Latina bride, and it ended a hilarious anecdote that wasn't really his fault but we decided that nope, go back to pop please) and even though we couldn't afford an actual wedding cake, we ended up having the most delicious chocolate mousse cake I've ever tasted. Well, maybe it tasted delicious because we were happy.

[@miniveedub]

Jamie your comment about the couple with the signs asking what if they had a son and he saw the photo really resonated with me. When I was born my mother in her gassed up state handed me back to the doctor and told him she didn’t want me, she wanted a boy. I heard that story quite a few times from my mother over the decades and I don’t think she ever realised the negative impact it had in me. She thought it was a funny story, just like this couple think their signs are cute.

Lolita isn't fucked up because of its content. The author when writing it knew it was fucked up and did it as a case study, though I can't really remember what about. The fucked up part is EVERY single person who did a live action of the movie thought it was a love story. IT IS NOT one by the way.

James, your wife is adorable. My and my husband's wedding was a hoot. It was a Jewish wedding the day after Thanksgiving. In my part of the world, the weather is unpredictable at best. In 1995, it was rainy and cold. We had to have the chuppah (ceremony) outside, though I was able to insist the reception be indoors. But I had to wear an overcoat over my beautiful dress, First of all, the rabbi's 3-yr old knocked over the table with the wine. Then, there's a part of the ceremony where the bride walks around the groom 7 times. Another friend's 5 yr-old decided to join me as I made the circles. My husband had asked if I cared what he stepped on to break the glass. Since I didn't, he got a Frosty the Snowman shot glass--which he told me about while the rabbi was talking about the destruction of the Temple. There's actually more, but these are some fun highlights. Silly, but not tacky!
