| | i'm starting to discover that when people ask you about wedding plans that they want you to gush. they want it to be some grand girly bonding thing. and i dissapoint them. becos thats so not me. i dont do tafeta or overpriced cakes or flowers or bridal showers. i'm trying to avoid the wedding industrial complex and to avoid exploiting underpaid people. my dress, my veil, our rings, and our invitations are all from artisans on etsy. we're making our own food. a retired judge friend of dan's mother is officiating the ceremony. we're having the ceremony and reception at a local park district field house. i just, i'm not that girl. we don't have bridesmaids or groomsmen, nobody is giving me away cos i'm not an old toaster or whatever, dan and i are walking together to music that matters to us, and we're writing our own vows that use gender-neutral fully inclusive language. we aren't decorating much. cos we're us. and so i dissapoint women who wish to bond with me. but i'm the girl who always tried her best to hide during bouqet tossing, what else can i be? i'm a punk rock tomboy. |
