My niece is getting married on Saturday so we are heading north to Thunder Bay tomorrow. The problem is she and her husband to be have been living together for 10 years and already have a kid. I have very little enthusiasm for this event.
shareWhat are you complaining about they have been together for 10 years just sit back and say another success.
shareI know what you mean. The only thing that changes now is the legal aspect of it. It's hard to wish them a lifetime of happiness together when they've been doing it for 10 years already.
shareI've been living with my partner for 10 years. We've discussed marriage but really mostly for the gifts. We decided we'd rather have a "We're never getting married" party and see what loot we'd get with that.
All kidding aside, I understand what you are saying, but if they want to celebrate, go and have fun. Do you feel the same if it's a second marriage?
Second weddings should also be toned down in my opinion if it is the second marriage for both people. A person should only be entitled to one big wedding.
I will enjoy myself once I get there. The driving weather is great and the CDs are ready.
Congratulations to the happy couple. I understand what you mean, but enjoy the day and include plenty of laughs in your speech.
