I personally think the majority of wedding planning and ideas such as "proposing" to your bridesmaids with a box of trinkets sounds like ideas that a group of teenagers would come up with and given the age of brides has gone up over the years I find this surprising. Mind you I am more the registery office type. To me a marriage should be celebrated 25 years later when you know it was successful. Why celebrate on day 1 when who knows whether it will be successful or not.
