Would you keep or cancel clinking for kisses?

    Cancel. My family did this at my sister's wedding and it just became constant. We are normally very affectionate anyway so I don't think we'll need to be prodded.

    Keep, but if too many clinks happen, I think we will respond to very little at that point.

    I have never heard of this tradition, but it sounds annoying. Plus, I don't need any additional excuses to kiss my honey.

    Cancel. I'll kiss my new husband when I want to, not when you tell me to. It's annoying to have to kiss on command and the sound of the clanking gives me a headache.

    By the end of the night we were rolling our eyes at it, but it was still cute for the most part.

    The first time I saw this done was about 3 weeks ago at my bro in laws wedding. I was told at the time it was a Chinese tradition, but seeing it mentioned here lets me know I was misinformed. I would love to keep this tradition going!

    Cancel. I have never really liked that part in weddings I've been to. I feel like they never get a chance to finish conversations or eating or anything because people always go way overboard with it and do it constantly.

    Keep. Though I'm sure we'll be smooching enough without our guest's help. Haha

    Cancel. We are both stubborn individuals so we wouldn't appreciate anyone directing us to be intimate.

    That is not a southern tradition. So I don’t feel like I’m canceling it by saying no.

    Cancel. We are not performing monkeys, and we're both very stubborn. 😂
