10-10-10. Save The Date.
I love it.

Okay, that was cute. I lol'ed when Erin was actually playing on the piano the ubiquitous overblown remix track from the "Requiem for a Dream" soundtrack.

I was all set to rant about the trend toward overly elaborate wedding proposals/invitations/announcements, but I couldn't because that was GREAT.

Okay. Mostly super awesome. However, it's all 10-10-10 and then at the end it's all OCTOBER 9. Sure I wasn't paying super close attention so maybe I missed something.

The eve of 10-10-10, apparently, they said.

Very very well-done, imo!

I did roll my eyes at the prospect of yet another blahblahblah wedding thingee, but OH MY GOURD I LOVED THAT. And now I want to go to their wedding.

Stew is exactly right: the voice-over says "on the eve of 10-10-10" and later "the marriage begins October 9th, 2010." Focusing on the day after the wedding, though confusing for invitees, actually resonates pretty deeply for me; lots of people focus on the wedding day itself, which makes it feel like the end of something, rather than the start of something.

As we got closer and closer to the wedding day, I got confused about my own wedding date, in part because my best woman so doggedly reminded me that "On the 12th, it will all be done and you can relax!" I, uh, what? Aren't we getting married on the 11th? Oh, but on the 12th, we'll be alone with no distractions. Good point!

It was a little long, BUT they get my full support because they are another tall bride/short groom couple. Hurray!

Nope. Do not want. Too overdone. And on my birthday. Taken together, it is unacceptable.

That was super fun!

That was great! Where did you find it, essexjan?
posted by Maisie 23 January | 13:40
Do you guys seriously find that entertaining? I saw it as seriously self-indulgent drivel.
posted by Doohickie 23 January | 15:12
I thought it was funny, of course its self-indulgant, but I hope the tall piano-plaiyng bride and her shorter rock climbing hubby (he's cute!) have lots of little kids with equally warped sense of humor. Because the funny shall inherit the earth!
