Life isn't a Movie

Amanda and I were talking about our wedding last night before bed, and we got onto talking about wedding cliches.

Pretty soon we were talking about wedding cliches in movies that we *wouldn't* re-create.

For instance, Amanda will not have a fight with her best friend who has a wedding on the same day as ours.  Nor will she be someone who is finally getting married after being a bridesmaid 27 times.

Neither of us will wake up next to someone we don't remember meeting but who we're now married to.

Amanda will not wear running shoes under her dress in case she needs to run away from the ceremony.  Neither of us will have a friend who hopes that the wedding will be cancelled so that we'll go through with an ancient promise to get married to another person by a certain age.

There will not be any 40 year old men crashing our wedding trying to pick up women.  The iPod "singing" at our wedding will not get married to the catering assistant.

Hugh Grant will not show up at our wedding mysteriously after attending four funerals.  Nobody will be dancing Bollywood style at the reception except for my brother if he's had wayyyyyyyyyy too much to drink.

Finally, I sincerely hope that Amanda's dad won't have a meltdown based on a different number in weiners in a package versus the number of buns packaged together.
