I agree for the most part.
It snowed the week before our wedding. My then fiancee was freaking out that no one would be able to make it to the wedding.
I asked a simple question.
"Do you know what will happen if just you, me, and the minister show up on Saturday?"
"No. What?"
"We'll get married."
She started ranting about that not being the point, blah, blah, blah.
It became obvious to me right then that women begin dreaming of a big, beautiful wedding as little girls and said wedding/rehearsal has to be perfect.
Guys on the other hand don't give it much thought until the right one comes along. Even then, most of us would be perfectly fine with eloping in order to skip all the drama that goes along the ceremonies.

I did make that up, nobody invites me to anything

elope and throw a party / reception
I think eloping is awesome.
I think eloping and then throwing a reception is really no different than just having a regular wedding. Most bridezillas aren't bridezillas over the ceremony itself. A reception is 95% of the cost/planning so this really doesn't save you anything.

Lots of spiders need killing. Lots of trash to be taken to the street.

They suck.
Been in a few of my friends "big weddings." It's why I hate weddings today.

I got married in Vegas in shorts. Neither of us wanted anything to do with spending 30k+ on a wedding. We were saving for our first house

My first wedding was a church wedding but didn't cost much. One bridesmaid, one groomsman, photographer a friend, flowers at a discount.
Second, we got married at the courthouse. We are just as married.
I've lost respect for certain brides after attending their weddings.

We've been married for 12 years. I had several friends spend a small fortune and were married less than 3 years

I always likened a marriage to the beginning of a marathon. No one has a huge celebration at the beginning of a marathon.
I've always disliked weddings in general, but nothing I hate worse in the world than big elaborate weddings with huge turnouts. Would rather jam an icepick into my retina than go to one.
If I ever found a woman that said she'd be happy with a 15 minute ceremony around 20 friends/family in my backyard, I'd marry her with the quickness.

They want their wedding more than anything else in life, but they do also want to be married because women can't be alone. They need somebody to talk to and bother, and they need to feel provided for and protected AKA they want to be allowed to sit on their lazy arse all day and decorate/ play house and possibly pop out a few babies to play dress up with, and in exchange for you giving them everything they have, they grant you access to their pussy (but only until you give them their wedding day and a contract entitleing them to all your other stuff.

Nope. My wedding cost $27.50. Party/reception will be under a grand. Helps having a cool wife and a small family.

a girl not wanting a big, nice wedding is a red flag

I didn’t want to have a big wedding, and I would’ve preferred to elope or do a small destination at the time.
But I have to admit, I really loved our wedding weekend. We had about 250 people, nothing too big or too fancy.
For the rehearsal dinner we had a low country boil, open bar, live music and told everyone that if you’re in town by that night you’re welcome to come.
I enjoyed that night more than the wedding reception. Probably because it was all close friends and family. There’s something special about having 90% of the people you love most in the world under one roof to celebrate with you.
It’ll probably never happen again in my lifetime.

Women need something to plan..
With a wedding they have all these events..
Engagement party,Showers, pictures, dress shopping.. and of course the wedding.. then honeymoon..
Then it’s house shopping.. house warming party.. all that bs..
Then come the kids.. and all the baby showers that go along with that.
If at any point they run out of events to plan for they are gone.. then they can plan another wedding and it starts all over

Single as in never been married, but been with the same woman for 4 years and living together over 2 years now. Being only 26 I'd say that's not too bad either.
But I'm more than open to your Roger's Relationship Advice. Nothing brings a man closer to his wife than being isolated in Alaska, your house accessible only by boat and plane and the nearest town hundreds of miles away. It really makes you focus on your partner.
Cheating is also impossible for you. Just not because of the lack of people, distance, and isolation. Its because your wife is a grizzly bear who would kill your mistress if she caught her. Because your mistress is a moose which is your grizzly bear wife's favorite prey.
Because you live in fricking Alaska. When's the last time you even saw a human female?
Foreplay everywhere is to get things heated up, but in Alaska foreplay is literally like 3p minutes of fingering just to thaw the frozen pussy out. That's why oral sex in Alaska isn't for pleasure, they use the warmth of their breath thaw their partners privates faster. They can't risk actual oral sex because if you lick them frozen Alaskan genitals then your tongue might get stuck
And Roger the fricking bushman shrubber thinks he can give peoole shite

We did a small beach destination that was within driving distance for most of our guests. Less than 30 people there(and that included us). We were in our early 30s and were paying for everything(both our parents couldn't contribute financially). We only cared about having our parents and siblings and a few close friends there.
His parents almost didn't make it to our wedding. His mom got really sick on the flight from PHX to Houston (medics had to wheel her off the plane) and had to be put up in a hotel in Houston for 2 nights and find an urgent care to prescribe her a patch so she could fly to the wedding(extreme motion sickness). They arrived 20 minutes before our ceremony started. Really put things in perspective that day for me. I didn't care what the flowers looked like, or if the cake was fine or any of that tbh. I just wanted his parents to be there cause I knew it would have really upset my husband if they weren't there.
ETA: And I wanted BOTH the wedding and marriage. Nothing wrong with that. I only plan on marrying once, why not make it a very special day.

My wife's wedding was at the court house costing us $25. We've been married for 20 years.
