I’ve started to go to a whole bunch of weddings lately…and I’m noticing that they’re generally all “fun” weddings. What do I mean by “fun”? They play fast/upbeat music or they do a skit that’s supposed to make people laugh…basically, they try to make it fun and not a classical walk down the aisle. This started ever since:
I mean, these guys did it right, it went viral and almost everyone has seen it at this point. And everyone’s trying to do something similar. IMO, I DO prefer the “fun” wedding over the old, slow, traditional wedding…but only if it’s done right. And so far, rarely has it been done right. I mean, people try…it can turn out good, sometimes great…but with every wedding, my standard for that walk gets higher and higher. It’s really difficult to do/plan.
Nowadays, everyone wants a theme or a twist to the wedding. I’d be somewhat disappointed if my friends had a traditional, normal wedding. It’s just…boring. They gotta make it fun…at least until the open bar (and I expect the weddings I go to to have open bar…unless money’s an issue).
My brain’s been thinking about what interesting thing I would do for my wedding. Not that it’s happening anytime soon but I like early brainstorming. I can’t come up with anything too interesting though. I’ll have to see when the time comes. Kind of like my brainstorming for my EPIC SITE…trying to think of ideas but I’m drawing a blank. Nothing worthy of my standard.
On another note, it’s taken me 28 years but I finally know, and memorized, and won’t forget, how to tie a tie. I had learned before and forgot. I didn’t practice. But I have a tie near me and every once a while, I pick it up and do it. Long-term memory through repetition.
I went driving today…driving and aimlessly shopping…for 4 hours. Whenever I’m blog post idea-less…I just need to go driving and I think of something.
