    We didn't even keep track of costs. She paid for stuff, I paid for stuff. blah blah blah.

    I mean we shopped around, got as best of deals we could. Got some help from the Parentals on some things though.

    Our first choice was Hawaii but COVID stopped that so we did it in Dallas. Got married at the Cathedral then a reception out in some warehouse with a rooftop patio.

    Wedding was a blast though. A lot of my friends came through, we partied it up and it felt good after being locked down for so long.

    Hot tip: get married at a nudist colony. Eliminates the clothing expense and most of the guests.

    It was fun though, pounded some beers, did some shots, got on video throwing up gang signs!

    Yeah, we got a lot of money as gifts though. Over $20k lol. Mostly from my side, as my friends are ballin' it up.

    40 years ago yes. Her family lives pretty modestly so not the case with this one

    Can I get you to convince my daughter's boyfriend's family of this? I'm pretty sure I'm going to be on the hook for a big party next summer.

    I read that as "Mostly from my sidepiece" and I let out a hearty chuckle.
