Ok, where you having it? Totally non religious then? No mention of god? Really interested is all. I went to a christening the other week and the vicar had a right go about coming in getting christened and then not been seen again. So it's all meaningless we're his words. I agreed with him.
I 100% agree. ****ing winds me up when couples complain about going to church to 'qualify' to get married there then never go again. Are you practising religion or not? If its the latter, dont get married in a ****ing church. ive had 2 pints.
Crab and Lobster in Thirsk. And no, neither of us believe in any of that stuff, so there isn't much point. Saves time, we're getting married in a conservatory in the middle of August and I don't want to hang around in there while wearing a suit.
We are getting married after about a 10 or 11 year 'engagement with the last 5 us living together. Second time for both of us. Register office, afternoon tea and disco or band at a local golf club. Hoping to keep it below £1500. . Only reason |I am doing it is financial (for her benefit mainly). Shhhh don't tell her she'll get upset again.
Is he an ordained minister? You'd have loved the vicar. Had a right go at the god parents, my mrs was one, asked people to stay after the ceremony to continue to worship. No one did. I was hoping the vicar came in pub afterwards. I wanted to get him tipsy and have a good discussion
A lot of people just like the pomp and ceremony of it all, my daughter spent most of her life wanting to get married in the church opposite our house, any other sort of wedding would have been a disappointment to her. Vicar's a right laugh as well. Churches are only really used for weddings, funerals, christenings and the odd Christmas/Easter service, they're empty the rest of the time.
I went to a wedding at Donald Trump's gaff up at Turnberry a couple of years ago where the service was conducted by a humanist celebrant. Now, in principle, I had nothing against the marriage being conducted by such a creature but the solemnity of the occasion was not helped by the fact that the pseudo-minister was the spit of Jeanette Krankie. Both in her looks and her wacky, elderly-dogger-earns-a-living-impersonating-a-schoolboy delivery of the ceremony. Is this what we want? D list celebrity looky-likies upholding our rites of passage. Michael Burymore conducting funerals anyone? Be careful what you wish for, that's all I can say.
Congrats matey. Just remember ! If all else fails there's always!!! YORKSHIRE TEA , CHOCOLATE , CARROT CAKE AND ALE
My sister was very similar. Church, went to it lots and lots before she was married. Day and night in Cameron House at Loch Lomond, tried inviting only half the family, rest of family complained, ended up 380 people, now getting divorced!!
Also, in a Civil Ceremony there is to be no reference of gods or anything religious in any of the text, readings or songs. Not sure if that excludes Death Metal. I assume the same for a civil funeral, but the last one I went to the widower had a long emotional rant about if there was a god he was a total ****. You could feel the collective silent tutting of the older generation present. The registrar just let him go with it, but I bet it wasn't in the original plan.
