| good thing i'm not getting married anytime soon |
that was until i read a friends blog - A day in the life of... ME
and her post today was about wether to get married or buy a house because parents today don't pay for weddings like back in the old day's.
it's weird, because just the other week my mum pipes up: you have to be engaged for atleast a year so that i can save up enough to contribute a nice amount to the wedding. now my mum mentioned 20grand... seriously? thats what a wedding costs? well that's what i thought until i started listening to conversations at the weddings i photograph... considering that a wedding photographer can charge up to 25grand for a few measly hours of coverage i can understand why she wants to contribute. but where this little outburst came from i have NO idea.
i'm a single mom not seeing anyone and not remotely close to. maybe she knows something i don't? would be nice. been over a year since i've been with anyone, yes i've had a little fling or two but i'm talking serious relationship kinda stuff. i've never dreamt of my wedding, never planned it. not even when batman and i got engaged did i honestly SEE my wedding. maybe the right person just hasn't come along yet? or maybe my faith needs to be restored in men?
i don't know.
there has been ONE wedding i attended recently.
the de boucherville wedding.
it was the first time i sat there thinking, wow, maybe i do want this.
BUT i'm not a churchy all ceremony kind of person.
so this is probably what my wedding will go down like:
married in court (cheaper anyway) and then an awesome reception!
because who remembers the actual ceremony anyway?!
so that's my little rant and rave for the day.
us single women are allowed it every now and then right?
*sigh*
I think single moms rock. As for weddings, honestly, I have never cared about them much. I always think proudly in my head, atleast I am not gonna put this thing on my parents- as long as they educate me well enough
