Picking colors and wedding gowns...

[stellinacadente]

Wao... you guys got really wild while I was looking 

Will post new links (that work) to gowns  soon I hope

Meanwhile... the Klingon wedding is such an trashy and intriguing idea 

[Opsa]

I read the other day that people are even doing Shakespeare in Klingon.

Oh...dear... lord....

whatever happened to a nice tradistional weddingg???

[Aggie]

Like mine? 

First I had to hold a black screen in front of my face when walking in to keep the ghosts from getting jealous ('cos I'm too handsome ). Then my mother-in-law traded her daughter for a wooden duck.  I didn't say a word during the ceremony, but got to have a snack and do a shot, and there were live chickens under the altar (not sacrificed, in case you are wondering).  Afterwards, the private family part of the ceremony - we poured some shots for our parents, I piggybacked the bride around the room and my parents threw dates and chestnuts at us to see how many sons and daughters we'd have - 13 total.

Yes, traditional weddings are very beautiful and sedate, aren't they?

Korean - here are some random web photos, but not of us (although some are quite likely at the same venue - we had those dancers):







We are pursuing a non-traditional western divorce (i.e. no lawyers or screaming matches) at the moment.

Rolling on floor laughing, but not at your divorce. Just at your answer to traditional weddings. Fantastic. I'll bet those traditions date back to way before the western ones.

I had a semi-traditional western one (divorce that is).... no lawyers , but lots and lots of screaming matches... thinking back it was was to hire the lawyer instead

It was a lot of fun, and I'm glad I got to experience it.  Think of it as extreme tourism, maybe....  

Anyways, I got married twice already - the mistake was that it was the same bride both times.  But it does save on divorce costs.

I'd hate to see what a Klingon divorce looks like!

If it has something to do with the succession of command in Klingon ships it may be a bloody and definite affair...
