Today, my fiancée showed me her wedding plans. It will be themed on one of her video games, the best man will be dressed as an alien warlord, and the vows talk about how we'll beat the odds and be blessed by the "Goddess Kalahira". Apparently, I have no say in this. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my fiancée suggested a 'Back To The Future' - themed wedding. FML
Today, my fiancée decided to go on a "vacation." Our wedding is tomorrow. FML
Today, my fiancé's best friend, who will be our best man at our wedding, decided to confess his feelings for me and tell me how he's always dreamed of us eloping together. The wedding is going to be awkward. FML
Today, my fiancé nervously sat me down for a "serious chat". The chat wound up with him asking if we could postpone our wedding, because his World of Warcraft guild had a raid scheduled for the same day. FML
Today, I went to pick up my wedding dress from the seamstress, only to find out that my fiancé called two weeks ago to say I wanted the dress "tie-dyed to match our new theme." She believed him. Our wedding is tomorrow. FML
Today, my girlfriend started to plan our wedding. We've been going out for 3 days. FML
Today, my fiancée told me she can't marry me. Our wedding day is tomorrow and around 20 of our 180 guests attending have travelled half way around the world just for the occasion. FML
Today, my fiancé informed me he didn't want a regular wedding cake, he wants a Batman cake. I have nothing against this, except that he already decided the wedding theme would be Star Wars. Essentially, I'm marrying a child. FML
Today, my fiancée said that our relationship is doomed because an astrologer said so. We only have a few more days until our wedding and she won't listen to a word I say. FML
Today, my father-in-law decided he was going to just completely take over our engagement party, so now my fiancé just wants to go to Reno and get married there. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Having a themed wedding is fine (my aunt and her husband met through Star Wars and had a SW themed wedding) but the other should consent. Also, that doesnkt make them ****** up.

#58: Vegas weddings are absolutely terrible. Not worth paying money for, at all. I've been to one, a cowboy theme. The official had the worst affected Texan accent; I could have done better. Save your money and have a meaningful, heartfelt, ceremony. :)

I agree with 16... Wtf. Theme weddings have to be mutual otherwise it's traditional. I'll be damned to have my best man dressed as some alien.

If she an her parents are paying for it, they get the say so. It is only going to be a couple hours out of the rest of their lives. The wedding is all about the bride. The honeymoon is where the men get to make the decisions and where they are rewarded for going along with whatever crazy ceremony we come up with

I'm pretty sure that this dude is right.

My boyfriends best friend had a Halo themed wedding that was fantastic. Nothing wrong with that.

Just chill and have fun with it! It will make for a much better story and memory than the average "and then I walked down the aisle in the $20,000 dress I'll only wear once" wedding! :)

I wish I could thumbs down multiple times. Weddings are about that once in a life time moment, not something that can be recreated every Halloween.
kamikrazy 6
Technically.... It can be a twice or a three times in a lifetime thing...

For Rush Limbaugh it's four and counting!

Yeah because old couples never recreate their traditional ceremonies years later when they renew vows?
Harpy20 24
I will never understand how going into excessive debt over ONE ******* DAY is exciting.

And if her once in a life time moment involves a video game then you have no say in what she does.

What if that person's "once in a lifetime moment" IS having a wedding that is relevant to his/her interests and about something he/she loves and wants to share with their family and friends, instead of doing the traditional white dress and black tie in a church mumbo jumbo? My husband and I are both into the Gothic subculture, which both of our families have always been very supportive of. We got married on Halloween, two years ago. I wore a black and violet dress, had violet dyed hair, a black birdcage veil attached to a little hat, and black/white stripey stockings, and gothic makeup. He wore a very Gothic styled suit and makeup. Our party still wore the traditional dresses and tuxedos, just in black, and we had a family friend perform our Pagan-influenced ceremony. And our guests? Most of them came in halloween costumes, Gothic clothing for those who were also Goth, or wore just plain black outfits. The decoratons were all Gothic/Halloween themed, not cheesy Halloween but actually CLASSY, and it was basically just a giant costume party and everyone had a WONDERFUL time and said it was wedding they will never forget, and neither will we even though it "could be recreated every year on Halloween" (which, by the way, is so untrue). So you see, just because YOU might feel that a wedding should be SRS BIZNISS, not everyone is the same. A wedding is about the couple involved, and as long as they are happy then nobody else's opinions matter.

Sounds like you had a really cool wedding! But if one of you hadn't wanted that sort of wedding, then it wouldn't have been cool for that person. The wedding is about both the bride and the groom, and it should be something meaningful to both of them. In the OP's case, he doesn't seem too keen on the kind of wedding his fiancee wants, and she doesn't seem too keen on listening to what he has to say about it. Not exactly a recipe for a good start to a marriage.

Those will be some lovely wedding photos

Mass Effect does have some pretty sexy aliens and humans in it ;)

Your parents will probably get a kick out of this

Why do you care? Everyone knows that the wedding day is more for the bride than the groom... though, I wouldn't want to be dressed up as an alien walking down the aisle for my wedding..
highway_unicorn7 5
Huh. I guess you're right.

Just rent a tux, get a nice haircut and be prepared to smile while taking orders from your wife. It's just getting started.

At least she's not making you be an adventurer gone Skyrim city guard. I'd hate to take an arrow to the knee at the altar.

Well to do a Skyrim themed wedding, you need a temple if Mara and an Amulet. Then thugs interrupt your wedding, and then you go flat dragons and never talk to her again unless for food or money from the store. THAT shield-brothers is a Skyrim wedding.
DKjazz 20
You can take your Skyrim husband/wife on adventures with you, too. You can slay dragons together, raid crypts together, kill dwarven animunculi together. I mean, it's not Paris, but come on, romance is what you make it.

Why? These people most likely have their priorities in order and are happy. If that's how they/we want to live, why shoot it down?
