AKAtude, Like Discogoddess and the Discogod (is he?? LOL), my hubby and I stayed until the bitter end. Our reception turned into a "stone cold jam" (yeah, I had to go there--we had a lot of 70s and 80s songs) and we partied our behinds off. It was soooo much fun which was exactly what we wanted. We did do the "fake leaving" thing though for our parents friends who did not want to leave before the bride and groom did. After the reception we went to our honeymoon suite, realized we were hungry, changed clothes and went across the street to the sports bar for some wings!
