Where in the world would you find a Clergyman that Impressive?
A friend who moved to Cali a few years ago is getting married in a yoga-inspired ceremony this spring.
The guests have been asked to dress as comfortably as possible and have been directed to Lululemon if they require any fashion inspiration. Apparently the ceremony will be held in a yoga studio where they met a few months ago, with everyone seated on yoga mats.
And in case anyone is wondering, the bride will be wearing white yoga pants instead of a dress. :rolleyes:
Zombie wedding! The makeup would be fun, no one would embarrass themselves by dancing badly at the reception (because everyone would be lurching), and the vows would be simple, but very moving. I now pronounce you BRAAIIINS! You may now kiss the BRAAAAIINS! And of course, the catering would take care of itself.
Or better yet, have a zombie ninja pirate robot wedding. A little something for everyone there.
It’s inconceiveable.
Just had to tweak up your idea ever so slightly…
Any number of movies could provide some incredibly bad inspiration:

[li]Animal House[/li][li]Sister Act[/li][li]The Fifth Element[/li][li]Fargo[/li][li]Citizen Kane[/li][/ul]And I have to say, some of you have wonderfully horrid ideas!
I think that was on “My Redneck Wedding” on CMT?
American Idol theme! The bride and groom can sing their vows to each other and the in-laws can critique their singing. And anything else they care to. And the bride’s mom can sneak off for a quickie with one of the groomsmen … oh, wait, I went to that wedding last summer. Never mind.
Uhm … how about Election Year theme? All red, white and blue. Everybody who goes wears a fake straw hat and carries campaign signs with the bride’s and groom’s names on them.
Nah, I got nothin’.
Moulin Rouge! Spectacular! Spectacular! Theme wedding complete with singing but not so much the dying of TB at the very end.
It could have been. It wouldn’t surprise me but I’ve never seen that show so I can’t say for certain. I have heard it’s hilarious though.
oooooh - how about a circus theme? The whole wedding party pours out of a clown car. Or flower girls on trapezes, flinging petals. A preacher on stilts. Gotta shoot someone out of a cannon.
Only if I can get Ewan McGregor as the actual groom.
Not what the OP was asking for, but a couple I went to college with got married a few years back and their first dance was to Louis Armstrong’s A Kiss to Build a Dream On - which they chose because they both love Fallout.
I nearly cried.
LOTR or WoW weddings.
Harry Potter wedding–parson is Voldemort!
Beanie Babies wedding: bride and groom each have that TY tag on their shoulder. Centerpieces are beanie babies etc.
Make marriage the theme: each of the bridesmaids dresses as a stage of marriage. Bride in bridal gown; maid of honor pregnant and looking a bit disgruntled; next maid in career suit with spit up on collar and athletic shoes; next one overweight, shirt out, blonde hair with black roots etc… all the way to a maid using a walker with a “I’ve fallen and I can’t get up” device.
Groom’s side: Groom in tux; Best man in business suit/uniform; next groomsman with beer belly and five o’clock shadow; next one with shirt hanging out and pockets stuffed with bills… then corpse (sorry, women still live longer)
That one could get kind of depressing.
rigs, your marriage theme is, um, yeah, something…
I think an insect-themed wedding would be the best! Everyone could dress up in insect costumes (ants on the groom’s side and bees on the bride’s side) and have a butterfly-shaped cake. And maybe some chocolate-covered crickets for dessert. A very lucky friend of mine was a bridesmaid in a wedding with a butterfly theme, but fortunately the idea of having shawls bedazzled with butterflies never happened. She did have to wear ice-dancer makeup, though. I’m still waiting for pictures. Haven’t seen any yet…can’t imagine why.
A while ago, I saw a blog with photos from a John Deere wedding, but now I can’t find it. It looks like that’s a popular theme now, because you can get a matching John Deere garter set and ringbearer’s pillow. :eek:
But I did find this. They must not be going far for their honeymoon.
I don’t know why a Bluebeard wedding appeals to me so much. I am a disturbed individual.
If I hated my stepmother (also, if I HAD a stepmother) I could totally do a Snow White wedding and make her dance in red-hot shoes. Would provide much entertainment.
Or have my side dress up as vampires and the groom’s side as werewolves. And have an EPIC BATTLE.
A Hogan’s Heroes theme?
(don’t ban me)
Have everyone attend the wedding riding on elephants. Or perhaps unicycles.
Obviously you’re highly traditional, and favor any wedding that will reinforce the idea that a woman is supposed to love, honor and obey.
(d&r)
Well… Take a look around you. Obviously you’re disturbed if you’re hanging out with us.
(Don’t worry, when you’ve been to your 1000th meeting you’ll get a straight jacket of your very own.)
Well, let’s see. BTW, GREAT thread idea!
-
Pedophile wedding. The bride needs to dress up as a preschooler. Even better, an infant.
-
A Duck wedding – as in actual ducks, pintails, mallards, etc. Everyone dresses as their favorite duck.
-
A dog fighting wedding – the bride and groom each acquire a savage fighting Rottweiler, and have the ceremony around the pit while the dogs rip each other to shreds. Michael Vick can get one of those magazine reverend licenses and perform the ceremony.
-
An post-war Iraq theme. Anything might be booby-trapped.
-
A “Two Girls/One Cup” wedding. I just do not want to go into details.
