Azat Posted November 18, 2003 Report Share Posted November 18, 2003 Exactly my point. Â K99 did you know the names of all your friends and family(all 400) who were at your wedding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THOTH Posted November 18, 2003 Report Share Posted November 18, 2003 (edited) If it was an Armenian wedding I can tell you exactly what happened. I was not there, but I know as they are ALLLLLLL the same. Boring and dumb.I love Armenian wedings BTW. We didn't have one though...in fact ours wasn't even in a church but in a nice old lodge up in the mountains (that burned down last year - very sad...)....we couldn't find a uniterian or Daoist priest (my choices) so we settled on methodist (about all we could find)...I wrote the entire service (think hippy like...) but he felt the need to insert all this God stuff (which really detracted...even my religous friends agreed...as my service was very cool [lots of kissing involved - and shouldn't there be!]...and was [as originally written] relatively short...and though my friends knew that we were driving off in my old Mustang - they didn't dare touch it (to dress it up...well maybe some cans tied underneath...even then it may have only been one or two...they knew better! ...they really went to town on another car I brought up though! Big time! - and even then I was mortified! LOL Ahh sweet memories...and the great thing is...that now 13? years later...my wife is more beautiful then ever! (really)...(but so am I...LOL...not...) And we pretty much paid for the wedding ourselves (no blow out Armenian one costing a fortune)...and though we had a nice band (an American one...though we did get them to learn 1 Armenia dance number!)...I assembled the entire rest of the music selection - and still have the tapes and listen to them on occasion Edited November 18, 2003 by THOTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sev-mard Posted November 18, 2003 Report Share Posted November 18, 2003 Damn, sounds real nice THOTH. I do look forward to being married someday and the wedding day sounds like one of those "best days or your Life" kinda days..and I guess it should be!

THOTH Posted November 18, 2003 Report Share Posted November 18, 2003 And it certainly was! ...and a pretty special night as well (virginity is overated BTW...LOL)Â My advice though - don't get too drunk (I managed OK)...and pace yourself..its a real exhausting experience...and for the honymoon - plan to stay in one place awhile and just relax (and play) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExtraHye Posted November 18, 2003 Report Share Posted November 18, 2003 (edited) Entertainment, location, and quantity of people are all insignificant. A foundation for a successful wedding is pure love (which a very few could experience). A love that you could only share with family and close friends. But what do I know, never been in love...

Azat Posted November 19, 2003 Report Share Posted November 19, 2003 Hye_Acher, KavorKin what is the bomb about Armenian Weddings? It is super hard to tell the difference between one to the next. There are 300, 400, gosh sometimes over 500 people who the bride and groom know(Ya right), the food at all the halls in the LA area is at best the a 3 star but most of the time a 2 star restaurant level(quantity does not equal quality). Music is mediocre. What else. Oh ya, hardly any gifts, mostly cash(What is memorable or personal about that) I tell you in the last 2-3 years I have started to not accept invitations unless that person has visited my house or I have visited their house in the last year and you will not believe how many I have refused. I just think if you have been to one you can pretty much tell how the others are. Very cookie cutter experience. ---Now let me tell you about 3 weddings of my friends/relatives that left a very memorable image in my head. -My best friend got married on the beach. They had catering from one of the best restaurants in LA under a tent in malibu. -Another friend invited about 120 guests to Hawaii and it was such a special occasion where we all knew each-other. -One of my coworkers(I was not invited) did his wedding in Bora bora with only 20 friends and relatives. -One of our relatives(Armenian) did his wedding at the Ritz Carleton in pasadena. The whole place was incredibly beautiful decorated. the food was incredible, service to die for. I later found out that their per person cost was $400 thus they only had 250 people but it was something that we still talk about to this day(2.5 years later) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IF my math doesnt fail me, the wedding must have cost US$100,000! You can buy a house for that amount.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vava Posted November 19, 2003 Report Share Posted November 19, 2003 One of my best friends got married at a vineyard in the Okanagan Valley - on a mountain, overlooking a beautiful lake in the fall. They invited only selected family and close friends (keep in mind that it's 4000km from here) and it ended up to be nice and intimate (70 people). Great food and plenty of wine (and porto!) for everyone. The wedding party (including me) dressed up in Kilts (he's Scottish) and we all had a really fabulous time. Long live small, intimate weddings - i would totally avoid the whole 'marriage hall hell'... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Accelerated Posted November 19, 2003 Report Share Posted November 19, 2003 I know for a fact that the average Aussie wedding costs approx. US20K and I think that includes everything: dress etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Accelerated Posted November 19, 2003 Report Share Posted November 19, 2003 These over-the-top weddings are just another example of 'tsootsamolootjoon' in Armenian culture......... <_< One thing we can learn from the Anglos..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angel4hope Posted November 19, 2003 Report Share Posted November 19, 2003 i agree w/azat- i hate going to armenian weddings- they invite anyone and everyone and everything is so overrated and superficial--y try to be that way? i dont understand these armenians---i think a wedding is one of the most special things in a persions life and should only be shared w/a few close friends and family--and should be something you as the couple want-not at some overexpensive dance hall with loads of food that no one even eats anymore-everything seems to be too much-no wonder-when other cultures see such things of armenians they think we are rich and live inmansions- because armos tend to spend money thery dont have to showw off- and to just stand out----its funny how-when i myself think of a wedding i think of the ceremony before all they restaurant partying and such-because the important part is the ceremony--but most armenian pple dont even attend the ceremony and just go 2 the restaurant afterwards- theyve somehow forgotten the meaning behind a wedding--i dunno if it was ever up 2 me-i would never have such a wedding -in the future-if i ever plan on marrying...who knows?!just the whole idea creeps me out--i would never want to be obligated 2 invite pple i dont know or even see on a regular basis-to such a private and personal occasion---even besides a wedding-like a birthday party--or special occasion.....

vava Posted November 19, 2003 Report Share Posted November 19, 2003 - in Tasmania. Seriously though, 100K is a lot of money, escpessially for a young couple....no? I'm just joshing... you're right - I don't think I would feel right spending that kind of money on my wedding. I mean it's for one DAY.
