She's originally from Wisconsin, so I'm guessing her dad got drunk on Point beer, and took a swing at the groom's father right before the Dollar Dance. But they all made up the next day, during the gift opening held in his parents' garage. Oh, it was real nice.
F you people with the three day weddings. Jesus. It's bad enough to have to give up a whole Saturday to dress up and go to some far-away place and pay $200 for one place-setting of fugly china for a gift. If I have to take time off work for one more 3-day weekend wedding I'm going to lose it. People are unbelievably self-centered with this shit. We had a nice, quiet short garden wedding in our town with no registry. Done.
@GooberSaysHey: No kidding. I got married at the county courthouse for $25 . . . 20 years ago. I think people forget marriage is about a lifetime, not just 1-5 days.
Nobody's crying here. If you think there aren't more criticisms of female bodies than male ones, then you aren't living in this era. You could say that women are set up with more criticism because of how they are presented (less clothes), but who does that benefit, exactly?
No one said men aren't criticized at all. But when 12 year old girls are walking down the runway and 30 is seen as old age, there's something amiss.
@son of spam: ah charlie. there's a man who hasn't seen his own knees in quite some time.
Seriously, though, he should have his cholesterol and triglycerides checked. Good health, strong knees, that's what the school nurse at elmcrest elementary always said.
It doesn't seem that weird. Most hotels don't like people wandering around their property without some sort of identification that you are supposed to be there most often that is just a room key, I suspect it is just something along the lines of a plastic card with the guests name and Mayer wedding printed on it to show hotel security that you aren't just some random person that wandered into the hotel.
@jmckee: It depends on where they're going within the hotel. The first couple of floors of the SF Four Seasons are the sorts of places a stranger could wander around, if only because the restaurant, lounge and meeting rooms are right there on floor 2 (along with checkin -- it's the defacto lobby, pretty darn open and easy to wander around). In other areas, I could see that, i.e. if everyone is going to be in the spa or something.
This photo makes Julia Allison look like one of those Mormon Muffin ladies. Sadly a blueprint cleanse is pretty much the opposite of a delicious Mormon muffin (a real baked good with a sugary top)although it retains a certain amount of religious fervour.
Ah, quarterly Town Hall meetings. Just a guess, but I think you'll see a lot of substance-free brown-nosey questions met with vague answers and empty pontificating.

My cousin had one recently. They've separated twice since, and I don't give them more than another 6 months.

Go cry to them about "body-snarking."

Men and women alike are susceptible to eating and body image disorders. No one is denying that.

Gotta love that pic - all that's needed is some sinister laugh, ala Ren from Urusei Yatsura. Either that or that sinister laugh of hers...
