They Did What?

Ok, so orientation happened at my college earlier this week, and that was alright. I have a five hour commute by train to and from the school, so there isn't usually much to do. It was just my luck, to have a New York Times to read.

The first article I read nearly knocked me out of my seat.
It was an article about weddings. At first it was saying how people are starting to get things like pie and burgers served at their weddings to have that kind of down home feel and kind of get rid of that swanky feeling in weddings. I was silently cheering, because I am a simple girl. That was until I read the next part. Apparently, to have a down to earth wedding, a couple will shell out more money than to have a nicer upscale looking one. Where is the sense in that?

Let me tell you, my wedding will probably be a potluck wedding with bring your own booze. I will be so broke, I'll barely be able to afford living expenses. Anyone else think that's crazy?
