Let the woman plan everything. You want no part in that nonsense. Open bar. Make the ceremony short as balls. Ummm thats pretty much it.

pick a couple things that are important to you and fight for them (for me it was food), just let the rest of it happen

Make sure her parents pay for everything and spend a lot.

I treated the whole wedding thing like a relay race. Me putting the ring on her finger was me passing the baton and watching her turn and start her leg of the race. I then leisurely meandered across the midfield and regained my breath by the time we met at the finish line, where we then partied our asses off.

Interesting analogy.

This is the secret. That was my approach. Great advice.

Women live for this crap. Just let them take care of it. None of it makes any difference to you.

Make certain that she knows now that the day before the wedding and you and your buds are going golfing. You don't want to surprise her with this, as she wants to be in control of the details.

SkinnyBenny · « **Reply #17 on:** April 14, 2013, 10:54:41 AM »

golf is weird

Not gonna do that but she did say Scheme Doctor could be our first dance.

SkinnyBenny · « **Reply #20 on:** April 14, 2013, 05:08:17 PM »

Also jmlynch1 you can consider this your official invite. Don't bring a date, there will be plenty of plowable southern belle fillies to slay.

*Edit* and come to my bachelor party.

SkinnyBenny · « **Reply #21 on:** April 14, 2013, 05:10:51 PM »

Dr. Spaceman you are invited to both too.

Kat Kid can go take a flying leap. Amirite, people.

Lots of great advice in this thread.

Something that wasn't mentioned...if like her family is a bunch of small town folks they won't think your two different kegs of craft beer are any good. They'll pound the three kegs of Bud Light you have in an hour then come running that you ran out of beer and it's a life or death rough ridin' emergency. At that point just look at them and say you don't give a crap and keep getting drunk on the good beer and they'll scramble on their own to get more kegs. You see there's always that one guy that wants to be the party hero but it doesn't have to be you on your wedding night.
