You're getting married...and you win a contest...
you win an all-expenses paid wedding worth 50000 dollars, every detail will be taken care of by a professional wedding planner, you can invite as many people as you'd like, food is whatever you want and as much as you'd like...hand-engraved invitations in gilt ink...live band...whatever you want in the wedding, you got it...
but the wedding must be held at your local Wal-Mart, in the aisles, with the reception there as well...minimal moving of merchandise and displays, just enough to accomodate the people.
Do you take it?
Re: You're getting married...and you win a contest...
I prob would just to tell the story. But then again..I DID that..except instead of Wal Mart it was Ripleys Believe it or Not and all pr3oceeds went to the HSUS.
Re: You're getting married...and you win a contest...
No, I'll pass. I'd rather have a cheap wedding with fewer people than have the condom display as my background for my pictures lol.
Re: You're getting married...and you win a contest...
I'm trying to figure out how a wedding at Wal-Mart would cost $50,000.
And no, I hate to set foot in a Wal-Mart, period. I damn sure wouldn't want to get married there. I can't put the pic from my first wedding in a beautiful beach garden in Hawaii (overlooking Hanalei Bay) next to the pic from my second wedding where I marched down the suppository aisle.
Re: You're getting married...and you win a contest...
Wal-Mart makes me ill and disgusted. That usually doesn't make for a happy wedding, a sour-puss bride.
Re: You're getting married...and you win a contest...
sure, why not?
I'm not inviting anyone to my wedding anyway. I'll take my 50grand and have an amazing honemoon.
I only have 2 requirements for my wedding.
1. a beautiful long dress
2. nobody is invited.
I could care less about the food, location, or anything else. I just want a pretty dress.
Re: You're getting married...and you win a contest...
Id take it - Im wondering what Id spend the $50,000 on though since Ive always said if I get married again it will be a nude BYO wedding.
$50,000? That just seems crazy to me to spend on one day on something that quite possibly wont last...
Re: You're getting married...and you win a contest...
Only if I can have it in the garden department in the middle of summer. I think it might actually be a really beautiful setting if florists/ decor experts are used to artfully arrange the plants for sale.
Re: You're getting married...and you win a contest...
I don't care about glitter engraving invitations. I want a fancy, expensive, hot, and sexy dress.
The local salsa/latin jazz band will play, and my buddy the World Music DJ will spin in between sets.
Lots of good quality food and drinks, etc. No formalities.
Would that really take $50k? This is such a stupid question.
Re: You're getting married...and you win a contest...
all of the money is spent on the wedding itself, nothing more...
Re: You're getting married...and you win a contest...
oh, in that case then, I'd pass. Simply because an extravagant wedding is not what I want, regardless of location.
Hell...Imma probably get married at a drive thru, I could care less if I got married like that or in the toilet paper aisle at walmart. Thoes things just aren't important to me.
I would like to be married outside...the drive thru with my convertible top down!:P
I'm a simple girl....
Re: You're getting married...and you win a contest...
I don't want an extravagant wedding at ALL, so my answer probably doesn't even count, but to me, Wal-Mart represents everything that's wrong with the world. So no. Hell no.
What made you think of this anyway, Mr. Hyde?
Re: You're getting married...and you win a contest...
Awww, I'd get married at Wal-Mart, so long as I was marrying my sweetie. The evils of miltary-industrial capitalism notwithstanding, it might be kind of cute. We used to go on 2AM Wal-Mart dates to buy mango popsicles, jigsaw puzzles and condoms... what can I say, there's not much to do here. Also, if I got married at Wal-Mart, could I steal some Prilosec? That shit is expensive.
Re: You're getting married...and you win a contest...
Well in that case Id buy a shit load of beer and fly in a few of my favorite bands to play and maybe a freak show to perform or something! That would be pretty unique and lots of fun, even if squashed - yeah id take it! I just could never do anything really formal and I doubt I could find a way to spend $50,000 on a wedding unless the bulk of it was going towards paying for live acts.
Is this a real comp?

Nope. Not for me. I wouldn't do a wedding anyway. I would have a handfasting and it would be simple, inexpensive, personal and not alot of people would be invited as handfastings (to me at least) are re-newed whenever the two people deem for it to be re-newed... every year and a day or every 5 years or whenever...
Plus.. um.. it would be a bit hard.. as I'm in Australia where there are no WalMarts.
So I guess it would be easy to spend that sort of money considering all the people I would have flown over (myself and my groom especially) first class... and I'm guessing that amount is in USD not my native currency.
Re: You're getting married...and you win a contest...
no. hell no.
I'd rather go to work and make my own 50g!

I have an active imagination...and I saw that some couple actually got married in one because that's where they met.

For real? I thought Wal Mart had taken over the western world.
