And Here We Go.
Aug. 26th, 2008 04:15 pmOkay, it's no secret that I can be a classist cunt at times, I'm sure. But even I would never stoop this low, because there but for the grace of God, etc.
Since it's Off Topic Tuesday over on
sf_drama, people are posting random bits of things. Amongst the random bits is this post. Someone posts a photo slideshow of a Georgia wedding, where the bride and groom were married at a Waffle House, with the comment 'You stay classy, Georgia'. And of course, commenters are replying with snark about the venue, the seating, and the way the wedding party are dressed. Some people even think that wearing a t-shirt to the wedding and sitting on upturned crates undermine the reverence of the ceremony. This pisses me off for three reasons. I'm sure I could find more if I tried, but these three should suffice.
1.) Not everyone can afford a lavish wedding.
2.) Not everyone wants a lavish wedding.
3.) It's the marriage that's important, not the wedding.
If the bride and groom are happy and in love, that's all that matters. And a little part of me wants to find them and send them on a nice honeymoon.
