As a recently married man, I am more appreciative of married couples, and the strength and commitment they give to each other, to move forward in their lives together. Even watching “Bethanny Getting Married” made me shed tears, because I know what it’s like to have a wedding day, and the special moment shared between 2 people in love: it’s undescribable and unforgettable.
HOWEVER: I came across this internet “News Post” and GAGGED. PLEASE READ THE “ARTICLE” BELOW LINKED IN THIS POST… BUT BEWARE OF THE NAUSEA THAT MIGHT SET IN!

WT….F??? I have officially LOST IT. I cant even READ this article, it drives me so CRAZY!!! WHO THE HELL IS DOING THIS??????? I don’t know ANYONE who would do this… and if I did, I would no longer know them!!!
THIS “TREND????” THIS IS NOT A TREND! THIS IS WHITE TRASH TO THE MAXXXXXXXX!!!! (get it…i couldn’t help myself)… i mean to quote this Stupid Bride, “The one constant in my life, no matter what, has always been T.J. Maxx,” Satayut, a self-proclaimed “Maxxinista,” says.
Then there’s the “executive editor” at Theknot.com saying, ”If this came up 15 years ago it would not have been as readily accepted”.
WAKE UP IDIOT!!! IT’S STILL NOT ACCEPTED!!!! THE ONLY PEOPLE DOING IT ARE DISGUSTING!!!!! DO YOU THINK SHE HAS FRIENDS WHO ARE DOING THIS?… She should be FIRED for allowing an article to even hit the publics eye, and ESPECIALLY MINE!!! GOD I WANNA SLAP SOMEBODY!!!!
As i read even more of this PAINFUL article to provide ammo for this post, my stomach is churning… here are a couple more winning standouts:
“Home Depot doesn’t charge to hold weddings in their stores, adding that most of the materials used — like orange buckets and plywood for pews — can be put back on the shelves after the ceremony.”
I AM D.Y.I.N.G…… ORANGE BUCKETS AND PLYWOOD FOR PEWS?!?!?!?!?!?!!?!??!!?!??!?!?!?!!!?!?!?!?
“According to Taco Bell spokesman Rob Poetsch, the restaurant typically hosts about one wedding per year and doesn’t charge for the ceremonies.”
SINCE WHEN DOES TACO BELL CONSTITUTE BEING A RESTAURANT?!?!?!?!??!!?!!!?!??!?!!?!?!
I think i’m going to be sick…..
READERS: I can’t wait for your comments…. and I don’t want to hear: “people should do what they want”, “it’s their day”, or “it’s their choice to do what they want, they’re in love”, etc… SPARE ME THE DISGUST. THIS IS NOT OK. THIS SHOWS ME THAT THE ACT OF GETTING MARRIED IS A JOKE, and it is ANYTHING BUT!

ReplyDeletei believe marriage is beyond the law. it isn't some earthly institution where you like make negotiations and dumb agreements. I think that love is beyond any organized institution and like conventional ties that look good. I've never been married though so I can't understand how seriously a person would come to take it. But it's impossibble to create love. Like sit down and create this story through a song of what you're supposed to feel and then step into that story and feel what the character you feel, even though you're not really in love, should experience with a "sacred" ceremony you feel so strongly about.
ReplyDeleteso tacky and sounds like they just wanted to make the news, which, congrats they did it.. anyway found your blog via lookville and i am so glad that you tell it like it is b/c seems as though lookville is more like a claire'/forever 21 and chictopia is more like a saks

ReplyDeleteIt's making a joke out of marriage!
ReplyDeleteWow completely agree with you! I think it's ridiculous what people are doing these days! A wedding is a very special day and should not be celebrated in a Taco Bell!
