Trista and Ryan's Wedding

[Hootie]

I'm sorry but the wedding invitations would have been the last straw for me (if I were Ryan). A wedding is an event that should represent the couple...not just one person. Guys should have input and say, and ladies should listen. I mean, it's his day too afterall

So did anyone watch the actual wedding tonight? I caught the last 10 minutes of it, and from what I saw it was all pink, and completely gaudy/tacky. Ick.

And all you could hear were helicopters flying around during the ceremony. Nice.....

When do you think ABC will be airing the "Trista and Ryan Divorce Special"??

I saw the first 50 minutes, on and off, darn job! But then of course, we had to go into the news... "Because at 10 it's news, at 11, it's HISTORY!" Thanks FOX 43.

All I have to say is, I'm jealous! I wish I could have a $4 million dollar wedding. I don't think it's tacky if it's what you really want.

And, I do hope Trista and Ryan make it... I really like them together.

Yes, I'll admit to watching the Trista & Ryan Wedding but I'm also a sucker for the weddings on TLC...But for $4million dollars spent there are some things that just made me go WTF:

Trista's stepmom wore white...

Having a flutist and pianist play Canon in D (precessional music) they could of afforded to have an orchestra.

The whole symbolism of those two mixing sand together in a vase. I just didn't get it. But I have a feeling this will be copied by
alot of trendy brides.

I have to admit I thought it was funny and I felt bad at the same time the helicopters going overhead.

And so for the reception. I think watching the battle over who gets the bridal bouqet and garter would have made for some laughs.

I think the fact that there's no pre-nup will make it very interesting. For the divorce court special. Sometimes promises of forever are broken.

And I think there'll be lots of "Trista shoes" out in the spring in time for the spring/summer wedding season and the prom!!! I too thought that the wedding had too, too, too much pink!!!!!!! Also, what was with the cake? I always thought that a wedding cake had to have white frosting, not brown chocolate. I can understand chocolate on a separate groom's cake, but on the actual wedding cake (even though it was half of it)? Not something I've ever seen.

WHAT was that? It just seemed like something that was made up...the minister was like, "I've got some sand!" and Trista seemed all excited about it. I didn't get it.

You know, I honestly couldn't tell (but, all I watched was the ceremony) how much money was spent on it. It just looked like everything had been hosed down in Pepto.

all i can say is that that guy Brad Paseley is pretty hot with that hat on. and the boy can sing. dayum

here was an awful lot of pink. i don't like the pink chairs - its just too much. I love all of the flowers and the brodemaid dresses too I did like her wedding dress, but i know i couldn't pull it off! If i had 4 million to spend on a wedding, i totally would!!

[Cluey]

Ugh.

Too. Much. Pink.

I am a sucker for pink, but I would have NEVER gone that far overboard with one color.

It reminds me of a quote..

"All the money in the world does not compensate for good taste."

The sand thing is supposed to be the new unity candle or some such thing. I get it, but I still think it's dumb. If I am not going to have a unity candle, I sure as heck am not going to have the "unity sand."

Personally, I can't wait for the Trista and Ryan Divorce Special! I just hope one of the reasons he divorces her is for that stupid baby talk crap she pulls all the time.

Ryan is awesome but Trista sucks.

Too much pink!

Weird-ass cake!

Bob and Estella were there...hrmmmm!

[jess_pom]

With all this talk of pink, my mind automatically goes to.... Steel Magnolias!!

Brad Paisley sang?!?! That's so cool! Too bad I missed that. Hes is really hot, even without the hat. He's married to Kimberly Williams from Father of the Bride and According to Jim.

Kimberly Williams is an Alpha Phi sister from Northwestern! Lucky guy...

Just heard Bob live on a Detroit radio station saying that he and Estella are not broken up, they are just taking things very slowly.

(And another Steel Magnolia reference) was the wedding sponsored by Pepto-Bismol?

Thank God I had tivo'd it - I fast forwarded through so much of it!

Anyway, I had a dream last night & Ryan was in it (before his wedding). He wanted me....but I had to break it to him that I was already married.

Woohoo... he is a beautiful man!

Trista is attractive too, but in a "cutesy" way. But she was looking a bit gaunt last night - she lost too much weight. Then again, with all the stress, it's expected.

Anyway....a four million dollar wedding. Oh. My. God. That's just...just... well, unbelievable! I think I'm more in shock over the cost of everything than I am from the wedding itself.

[mullet81]

i meant to add... i did not like trista's hair at all. the bangs thing just wasn't working for me or her

[pirepresent]

The pink was bad, but i read the television without pity review of the first episode, and from that i was expecting soooooo much worse. It was a little over the top, but I thought most of it was tastefully done.

The song at the end though, was amazing - I won't lie, I cried!!

And mullet, I totally agree about the bangs - gross!
