So J-Lo cancelled a 1 million dollar gig on NYE in Miami so that she can "hang with Drake."
Must be nice.
Must be nice.
wcc's posting with a wedding planner involved will make up for the down effect that having a perfectly reasonable, cool even, venue like Rhinegeist will have on his angst.
Wcc gonna be a groomzilla or nah?
I mean, we got an engagement party and wedding date set...what about the damn BACHELOR PARTY.
He'll probably just have some bros over to sip domestos in the basement. Maybe go take in a matinee, a nice romantic comedy.

* SAE is hands down the poster of the year. The rest of you posters took a back seat to his straightforward, no frills, smart alek posting style. The fact that he did so with such a huge issue lingering over his head.....damn. Not gonna lie -- there's a little bit of therapy in GYERO posting.
* Had a nice little date last night. My buddy's wife's sister. Lives in LA, but moving back here at some point soon. In town for a few weeks. Staying with her parents (who I've met before). So, I get to go all the way up to the door last night, come in and sit down with the parents, chit chat, have a beer. I'm 38, and she's 36, but I felt like I was in high school again.
* Actually had a nice experience with Spirit. Direct flight to Vegas. Plane was newer/clean/nice. Most annoying part is all the stupid add ons. Just quote me the f'ing price, for petes sake. It's one thing to charge to check a bag, but it's another to charge for...uhh....your seat.
"Yes, in fact, I *would* like to go ahead and add a seat for this flight."![[eyeroll]](http://l.yimg.com/j/assets/img/emoticons/rolleye/rolleye0011.r191677.gif "Eye roll [eyeroll]")

at wcc. I'm no wedding expert, but if you're completely put out and shocked by having to hire a wedding planner, then you've got a long road to hoe. Whew.
Just throwing this out there ahead of time, to ease you into it. You'll also order flowers, hire a photographer, and have to buy a ring.

Lol, @ WCC.
This may go even better than I was hoping.
If you're not footing the bill then go with the planner. Actually, other than elope, wedding planner is my biggest suggestion for weddings. #1 it takes your say out of it so you get out of the silly decisons. #2 it really will decrease the stress during those 2 or 3 days as she will take care of EVERYTHING if she's worth a damn. Ours spent most of the day trying to get the wedding party from getting too drunk before the ceremony. But they deal with all the vendors, problems, getting people where they're supposed to be etc. All the headaches on the day of.
-Enjoyed all 4 contrary to what I thought. Figured it would be mostly awful. Really liked the K podcast.

Kinda sexist assuming the wedding planner will be a "she", really.
Was hoping wcc would give MaxPowerrr Wedding Planning a shot, help me grow my side hustle.

Planning your own wedding, and dealing with every minute little detail, sounds like a literal, living, walking version of hell on earth.
The podcast with Coach K was good in that they traded coaching stories and philosophies. Always fascinated with how these guys get their start. K talking about the old 5 Star Camp where tons of coaching legends cut their teeth.
^ I'd like to listen to that one.
-Run The Jewels is terrible music, I truly do not get it.
<----- love me some Pat Narduzzi. What a crazy man & great coach.
-Watched some Amiri King videos last night. Way late, but that dude is a riot.

Here's some wedding planning for you - ELOPE.
We had a party of 12 in St. Thomas...and still had a wedding planner. She did everything -- all we did was show up, get married, eat, and drink. Highly recommend.
Find a venue that has an event planner to handle catering, food, drink, etc. Use the wedding planner as more of a day-of coordinator. Win/win.
Do they give you the option to say "Nah, I'm good, it's a pretty short flight so I think I'll stand." I mean, that has to be against some regulations.
Maybe I just got really lucky but my wife showed zero stress for our wedding and she basically planned it all. Hell, she even made the invitations and thank you cards herself.
I basically just showed up, drank a few cold ones in the parking lot, said "I do", took some pictures and headed to the reception.
If we were to have done it differently, we would have taken the pictures before the wedding. Superstitions aside, I'd much would have rather had that time at the reception than taking 300 pictures with the family and wedding party.

Waiting for the Pti comment about how weddings are a stupid waste of money. Think about what 50k could do with compounding interest over the next 20-30 years (if you actually stay married, lol.)
Just go to the courthouse, make it legal, then rent out the clubhouse at the apartment complex and invite some friends, couple cases of miller lite on ice, and set your ipod favorite playlist on play.

I bet they give you a little carpet square to sit on. Maybe access to a handle or two in case things get bumpy.
Would only help pay for the inevitable divorce which resulted from the fact that you didn't give her a wedding.
Just think how many credit card points you could accumulate with a $50,000 wedding.
We pretty much did that. Immediate families stayed in AirBNB's for the week. Morning marriage at City Hall - the officiant was an awesome NYer who was proud to marry us by the power vested in him by "THE GREAT STATE OF NEW YAWK!" (This guy), walked to a nice little brunch, dinner party hosted by my cousin in Tribeca and a reception at our neighborhood pub the following night. The City Hall marriage scene there is pretty fun, tbh. Lots of stoked families and friends, a great vibe of humanity, IMO.
Then we had a "highlights package wedding" in NKY.
Bowl Gambol ---> if you're doing well (like me), you're betting the Dogs, which have now covered 13 straight games this bowl season.That's pretty silly.
WKU was the last fav to cover. #Tops
Wasn't NC state a favorite over vandy?
There are some things that are objectively wastes of money, regardless of how wealthy you are. $50k+ on a GD wedding is one of them.
$200k?
I mean, yeah. I also cannot imagine that for a wedding. Solid take, drxman.

I haven't crossed this bridge yet, but if my daughter asks for a 50K wedding, I'm going to feel like I did something wrong.
Attended a wedding this year that I wouldn't be shocked AT ALL if it ran close to $200K.
The gold flaked donuts handed out as you left seemed a bit excessive, if not appreciated.
