Ain't been married, myself, but my koshkaphoenix walked the aisle twice before she figured out "wait, WTF am I doing???" So, we've talked over the years about how neither of us wants to be married, but we'd love to have a mock wedding some time -- all of the fun of a wedding ceremony, none of the fucking legal liabilities.
I like the idea of entrance music, just like in pro wrestling. I want the chorus from AC/DC's "Highway to Hell" blaring through the loudspeakers. She picked, for her entrance, Motley Crue's "Hell on High Heels" (I think there's a cool animated video for this over at CampChaos.com, but I can't search it from work).
We'd save the Imperial Death March for her wicked bitch of the west mother, if she was foolish enough to show up. It'd be the cue for the bouncers to spring into action...
So, I've got these friends. And the story goes that a couple of the guests bribed the musicians to play the Imperial Death March when the bride came in.
They took the money and did it -- because, unbeknownst to the guests, the bride had already instructed them to do the same thing. The groom and the families weren't aware of this, but everyone agreed it was appropriate.
(The bride in question was one of the major writers of the Star Wars roleplaying game.)
So after all the weddings swirling around me, all very unconventional, I keep coming up with what *I'd* want at my wedding [to either my right hand or imaginery boyfriend, apparently]. This is very funny because I am NOT one who has ever once in her life had a wedding fantasy, much less "since I was a little girl."
Details I'm gathering and coming up with on my own: VooDoo Donut Wedding Chappell, Cupcake Royalle reception, Drag Queens and Kings, vows including, "I take thee in queerness and straight, fabulous and tired..." and now, The Imperial March. :)
