I mentioned this in another thread, but pinning at least (daughter's never mentioned lavaliering, so I don't think they do that, but WC would have to confirm) is still very alive and well and a pretty big ta' do (not in terms of meaning anything more just in terms of the ceremony and tradition) at her campus which, as I said in the other thread, is not a terribly traditional in other regards.
I will say that while she's indicated it can be very meaningful and she definately felt hers was (they've dated quite a while and its a healthy relationship), she thinks SOMETIMES girls can get so caught up in wanting to have that "ceremony" not to mention all the bells and whistles that go with it - it becomes more important than the relationship...if that makes sense. I guess a more minor form of wanting the wedding more than you want the groom.
I wouldn't say that was common -its an expensive endeavor for the guy particularly, so they don't tend to go there unless they're serious, but it happens.
