Call me miserable, downvote me- IDGAF.

Between all the unnecessary parties/showers, overpriced tuxedo rental companies, travel, hotels, and other bullshite pageantry of today’s weddings, I’d rather never be in one again. The only redeeming part of them is the bachelor party, which I usually end up blowing too much money on anyway.

You had to pay for your own tuxedo rental?

The next time someone asks you to be in one, say no.

No. Because it would mean I'm pretty good friends with that person and I would enjoy going to all those things with said friends.

Yup. I thought I was done with them when I turned 30 and most of my friends had married off.

My wife and I are both in one this July

I've been a best man 3 times... had the time of my life each time. One was my dad's third marriage and the other two were like brothers to me... getting to be such a big part of their day was amazing. Yea it gets expensive but more than worth it to me...

you are miserable

Sounds like the groom should finder a better friend than you to be a groomsman.

Any event requiring rented clothing should be avoided and labelled as trashy.

$250.00 to rent a tux now.

$250.00.

To wear it once.

Other than the cost of the tux, it’s actually really fun so long as the people getting married are fun. Dry Baptist receptions are the worst even if their weddings are short, sweet, and to the point.

I enjoy it because statistics show that as a groomsman you have 20% better odds of nailing one of the bridesmaids.

The real issue is people who feel it is necessary to have a wedding in general. Go get the piece of paper downtown and be done with it. Also: You’re an adult, go buy your own kitchenware.

I'd be surprised to find a woman who hates to be in weddings.
Especially since every other Hallmark movie features a wedding scene.

Hell no, I love being in weddings.

travel, hotels... bachelor party

These are awesome, along with the reception. Weddings were fun when I was single, and now that I'm married, I still enjoy them with my wife.
