Your Most Ridiculous Wedding Idea

Lol Hillery. We've booked so much other stuff that I'm over getting them now. I'm going to get myself a nice pair of low heeled shoes, maybe with a little embellishment and have given myself a $50 budget.

A handmade 40x40 foot hanging canopy over the dance floor made from 5000 paper circles and 2000 hand cut strips of fabric.

We are doing it, everyone loves it and my mom will never want to tie another string in her life after this

My cake flavor is Funfetti. Seriously. Guess it is not crazy although it did throw our wedding coordinator for a loop.

FH had the idea at first of getting married on the tarmac of the airport he works at and me making my entrance via aircraft.......

HA!! I love this post!

I wanted a fog machine to run throughout the reception so that it constantly looks like we are on a cloud. Im still tempted to buy a few machines too but FH is against it lol

That I could have a guest list of 200 and do everything for $5000.00. That was before I looked into any prices.

I wanted a David Tutera Dress and shoes until i priced them way out of my budget.

@Mrs Reed My fiance wanted a fog machine and lasers for our entrance to make it more "dramatic". I put a stop to that foolishness. In an enclosed space people's asthma and breathing problems can flare up!

Me? I wanted a mariachi band. 8 piece. Classy. My parents are not prejudiced but they would have had a fit because they couldn't understand any of the songs.

After seeing the Tyler Perry Movie, Madea's Family Reunion I wanted to have live angels hanging from the ceiling of my wedding, playing harps! Lol I didn't even try to make that dream a reality as I knew right away that it was rediculous! Lol

@AndreaLily, I know what you mean, Im still convinced that President Obama and Michelle will come to my wedding. Im sending an invite and all to the white house! Maybe they'll have a burst of kindless and surprise me like Oprah! Lol

Getting married in Rome

We are thinking of the candy buffet idea. I had this crazy dream the other night that instead of candy, it should be homemade cookies! For about 150 people so that would be like 500-600 cookies!!! Oh hell to the no. I made 300 cookies one time for the USO at our airport and that in itself was crazy. Ex BF was a firefighter and they were taking pizzas over there as way to thank people for their service ( shortly after 9/11). I said hey...... I will make cookies! for 150 Marines!!

My most outrageous was thinking we could have the wedding we wanted to have including the honeymoon for $5,000 which went to $8,000 then to $10,000 and then we just said screw it! Even holding back on some things we still ended up at about $20,000.

Haha OMG Tash! I invited Ellen DeGeneres!! I haven't heard back but I'm still secretly hoping she shows up! Hahahaha

FH wanted pyrotechnics and a fog machine for our entrance. He knew the pyrotechnics were out since it was indoors, and I called our venue to see if we could do the fog machine (its his day too). I wasn't to upset when the venue said no.

I wanted Michael Buble to be our wedding singer. In my dreams.

My wedding planning has stayed pretty sane, but when we first got engaged, we talked about honeymooning in Bora Bora. Yeah, just a itty bit out of my price range.

I still daydream of a David Tutera wedding though. I'm definitely applying for the show

Getting married On Top View that overlooks DC...needless to say my little budget was not going to cut it there.

This thread is cracking me up. And Tash that is too funny. I saw that movie - Madea's Family Reunion. That was a beautiful touch, but glad you came back to reality. lol

I don't know if I really had one....I pretty much knew from the get go what would be in and out of budget....and we got pretty much everything we could have wanted (within budget)

Although before I got engaged, I swore I would get married at the Plaza Hotel. I still love that hotel.

I REALLY want fireworks. My venue allows fireworks with a licensed pyro technician. The ones I priced are in the couple thousand range. I'll probably be settling for sparklers!
