"Capture the bride"

I wouldn't appreciate this. I dislike fundraisers a lot.

That was a common thing to do among my older family, but we grandkids put an end to that real fast and wouldn't play along. My Aunt missed a huge chunk of her reception waiting till people paid up. I noticed it also changed the flow and atmosphere of the weddings I attended. What was a bopping party went south with no bride and never recovered to the pre-kidnap stunt. Which is why - with no exceptions - everyone since has said absolutely not.

If its about the money, most people set an amount to give the happy couple - whether that all together in a gift/card or split up amongst all the money grabs.

No its not about the money, its about doing something fun. Both of our families are always ready for a good time, along with all of our friends. We basically have the same friends guest list as our friends who got married 2 years ago, and they loved capture the bride. They thought it was great. But also our other friends did the honeymoon dance and everyone loved that too. Capture the bride for us would only be about 20 minutes long

This is something I've been dreading having to do since getting engaged. My fiance's brother announced that it was happening as soon as we were out together celebrating the engagement. I do not want to do it but my fiance wants his family involved. I'm happy with just the "Money dance" but doing both is not cool, especially in our circle of family and friends who have little money. How do I tell him I don't want this to happen?
