Let’s just face it…weddings (as we know it) are for girls. Most guys do not care about round tables vs square or veil lengths or grandmother’s corsages. They do not care about flower centerpieces or aisle runners or something blue. And they definitely could care less if the color scheme was red/white or crimson/cream or firebrick/ivory. Here is what is important to the XY’s when it comes to nuptials: food and gifts.

And so naturally Jeremy was excited at my ‘generousity’. I said that he could use one of our wedding gift cards to purchase whatever he wanted. It really wasn’t generous on my part. Afterall, I did get my twelve place settings of lenox. And it was his wedding too.

I simply like the fact that it is red. and shiny. and new. It’s almost like a motorcycle. That is how my boyfriend should think of it…except safer. and more productive.
