Picnic Princess posted:I was so glad when I left. People shopping for jewelry are loving mental. Please share any stories if you’re feeling up to it? Or have you contributed to an A/T in the past? If only because I love it when mega-entitled people get hoisted with their own petard, especially in the wedding industry.

Panfilo posted:You can have a big fun wedding that is cost effective for what you get, but it just takes work, and what I noticed is that people are either too lazy to bother so they just scale everything back, or they are too inflexible and spend way too much for what they get. Wedding prices are what they are because of the hassle with dealing with the people getting married and the drama they cause. Sounds like you and your wife are happy to avoid the drama side of things so got to avoid the drama tax.

Bombadilillo posted:Used dress stores are also a thing because what do you do with a wedding dress? Get a 2000-3000 for a few hundred if this your thing. Did you only have like 10 people there? Because even only inviting immediate family (to first-cousin level) I can't see how you'd do it for that much. I think I'd struggle to even provide self-catered food for that much, and my partner and I are both from white, middle class, non religious families so we're only talking like 30ish people. Hell my kid's second birthday cost like $150+ not including the present we got him, and we just had a few people around to our house.

I want to point out that a dude who secretly bought an engagement ring isn't likely to be against the whole engagement ring idea. He just picked a plug-ugly one, is all.

Tied into the Weddings are a Scam are the giant grand proposal videos that people were posting. Like having everyone's family there or staging some giant production number or what. Besides adding to "everything involved with a wedding HAS to be the biggest and best possible or he (because the onus is always on the guy in this stuff) isn't worth it" it also puts a HUGE amount of pressure on the woman and creates a situation where she can't really say no without coming off as a huge bitch. Look at the thing with the proposal in Spider-Man. The story at first was "wow what a huge bitch turning down this guy who worked really hard on this proposal" then someone actually asked her and she was "Uh well, the relationship was falling apart because of his inattention and general shittyness, and rather than trying to fix it or improve himself, he spent all his time on a grand gesture." I think rom coms and other romantic have caused this, because how many involve the guy screwing up in the 3rd act then coming back at the end with a boombox over their head is going to fix anything.

Anyone who attempts a public proposal without running it by their partner first is a horrible human being that deserves to die alone.

(That's a thing ask the meat people!) 50-75ish people. 200 dress 200 food 100 champagne 100 cake (not tiered wedding. Multiple super good cakes from a good bakery) 50-100 in liscencing junk Some miscelenious? Plus byob on top of champagne, some family freind owned a chacolate fountain (wtf?) So it was pretty great. We were poor so I distinctly remember it being $700 total which was huge for me at the time.

I did a semi-public proposal but I dropped massive loving hints first like taking her to the jewelers to pick out the exact ring she liked. It wasnt exactly a mystery.

sneaking a proposal in public but not telling anyone probably makes the one spectator that sees it and figures it out a highlight of that person's month

To me the biggest thing about a public proposal is it makes it drat near impossible to (politely) say no. Saying no to a proposal is already such a big thing. The proposer is devastated, not only because of the rejection but also because of how badly they have misjudged the relationship. And the proposee would have to be a bastard/bitch to easily inflict that kind of pain on someone they are in a relationship with. If you add in all the theatrics, and public attention of a public proposal, (as well as all the gawkers going "Aww isn't it sweet/romantic." Then the proposee has to deal with not only devastating their beloved, but with the ire of a crowd to which they are now the bad guy, all while probably feelingterrible about themselves for doing so in the first place. Then there is the simple issue of nobody should EVER get married just because they felt pressured into saying yes. It does not bode well for the future of the relationship.

twistedmentat posted:
I'd say rom-coms and things like that have really screwed up perceptions on anything involving relationships. When my fiance and I were dating, he thought he had to do stuff like dating milestone gifts, have to give jewelry for birthday gifts, and all that other stuff you see hyped up. It took a few sit down talks to explain that I don't care about milestone gifts, it's fine if he forgets an anniversary thing, I'm not into bed & breakfast stays, and when he asks me what I'd like for my birthday, when I say I'd like a new cooking pot or vacuum, I really want a new cooking pot or vacuum. For a special night out, dinner and a movie's more than enough. Even with those talks, he still had his friends insist he had to do the whole jewelry and flowers thing because all women want that and if they say they don't, they're lying. For our wedding, since it's his first and my second, I'm only insisting that it be fun. If he wanted something big, then we'd go big. So we're doing a get married by Elvis in Vegas thing with close family and since the majority of our friends can't travel for it, we'll rent a place in our city for a reception with a note of gifts are nice but not necessary and make sure you come with an appetite since we're catering from a good barbecue place. We know we're likely to get an earful from friends when they hear what we're doing since we're not going the big glitzy route, but we're going with what's more in our tastes.

My marriage proposal was like, the antithesis of a rom-com scenario. We were in a 24 hour CVS on Easter weekend at midnight and discussing that we needed to get my long-term SO onto my health insurance. He mentioned that he'd been planning to propose in August on our anniversary, but him getting out of the ER with surprise!diabetes fast tracked a lot of things, so we eloped. Inbetween Easter and the actual wedding date we went and picked out rings together. (A very nice black tungsten carbide ring with a carved pattern.)

I proposed to my wife quietly, at dinner at a nice restaurant. Her parents got married after her mom asked he dad in an IHOP "so are we getting married or not?" And he said "uh, sure, ok".

Maybe they'd already discussed getting engaged, both like grand gestures and poo poo? I mean it sounds awful to me too but telling someone their proposal is your worst nightmare at the actual party celebrating that proposal does indeed sound like being a loving downer
