How many weddings have you attended?

I'm 36 and have probably attended 21 weddings and been in 5 (that I can recall). Just out of curiosity, how many weddings have you attended? Have any good stories?

    I can't remember how many I went to as a child, at least 3. As an adult I think I've been to 4, I was a bridesmaid in 1. We're 25 and the first of both of our friends to get married so I'm sure that number will grow in the next few years.

    I've been in three and I've attended six more on top of that. Weddings in my hometown are pretty run of the mill. So there's not been anything interesting. I'm 23.

    14 or 15, and I'm 26. Mostly family and about 4 of FH's friends' weddings. I've never been a BM, but I've been a hostess several times (in my aunts' weddings), and I was the bell ringer in my aunt's wedding as a child.

    I've been to 1 as a bridesmaid, 4 where I was sent an invitation, and over 100 that were free-for-alls. (Russian weddings tend to be free for alls).

    I'm 28, been to 12 weddings and been in 5. This year I will be attending one wedding and having my own! I also have an invite to another wedding but will be declining. Can't afford the travel and time off.

    I'm 24 and I've been to 4, 3 I was in the bridal party Smiley smile One that I was in my friend had a HUGE bridal party. I believe it was 13 girls and 13 guys. Come to find out I was asked last minute just to fill a spot so the sides would be even because someone dropped out Smiley sad sad day! And she was horrible, total bridezilla (and I don't throw that word around lightly, you have to be really bad to get that title in my opinion). Everyone had to wear the same hideous dress, shoes, have our nails, hair, and makeup done the exact same way. (none of which she paid for) It was a total nightmare and very expensive.

    I'm 26, have been to 14, been a BM in 2. We have four this summer including our own, though!

    Am I the only person who would be really interested in the demographics of people's responses? My mom thinks we go to a crazy amount of weddings for our age and chalks it up to the fact that FI and I both went to Catholic schools, but after reading some responses it seems like we're pretty average! Wonder how much location/religion has to do with a lot of these responses.

    I think I've been to 10? I was a BM in one. We're going to one in September as well.

    ETA: I'm 25. Half of those were family weddings I went to as a kid.

    @Tabitha, I've been there before. Not fun and I don't even speak to that "friend" anymore.

    I'm 31 and in the last 15 years I've been to 33. I've been a BM in 6 of them. In the last 3 years I've been to 12. I went to more as a child but I don't remember them so they don't make the list.

    I'm 29 and have been to 9 weddings as an adult. There were 5 more of good friends that I wanted to attend, but either couldn't get off work or they were too expensive to travel to. Anticipating at least 8 more weddings of friends in the next year or two.
