I am from the south too and I think before I started college I had only been to southern weddings. For those of you who don't know, a southern wedding consists of a church ceremony and a "reception" in a room within the church. The food consists of cake, mints, nuts and punch. If they are really fancy you will have a table with an assortment of finger foods. You then go outside and throw birdseed or blow bubbles. The whole affair is 2 hours tops.
No one in My family has ever had a wedding with dancing and dinner. That is a Yankee influence. I love the south and its' traditions, but the wedding is one thing Yankee's do MUCH MUCH better than we.
