Wedding plans....

Seems wedding plans are alot harder than I had previously thought.
I always knew they were difficult but this is just ridiculous. It not just a case of saying "I am man, will show up and say ""I do"" "
Nooooooooo society thought it would make it way harder, for example:

1. You cant invite everyone you would like to, either due to financial constraints, the size of the venue or just people who dont get along. - i have also noticed that people who you havnt seen for ages and have chosen not to invite will suddenly appear and *think/expect* that they are automatically getting invited....

2. The actual wedding, other than getting suits etc and making sure stuff gets done thats not too bad, fiance is luckily uber organised so that makes my life alot easier.

3. The honeymoon, now this is the evil part... EVERYONE wants to know where you are going and what you are going to be doing, its become a very big thing. Now the accepted norm in SA seems to be a honeymoon in Mauritius, why i am not really sure considering how commercialised/lame it is. Not saying its lame for everyone, just me pretty much.
So then, where are we going? Cant reveal that entirely but we will be staying in the country which is a good thing considering i have never been to these places before.
But i am busy finalising plans for the trip and it should be awesome. So far anyone who has asked and been told that we are staying here has kind of looked at me in *that* way. The scary part is that it is probably more expensive to be doing what we are, if i consider the cost of the numerous places we will be staying at, it is cheaper than taking a package deal to Mauritius! Oh the tribulations, the one plus to Mauritius is that i could get some awesome salt water fly action in, but then again on honeymoon that wouldnt happen so thats where it ends....

Im sure there was a point to this entry but right now i seem to have lost it, oh well.
