Is it rude to impose a 3 minute time limit on speeches? I totally understand that weddings are emotional events, but neither Dude nor I are particularly emotional. We want to dance!
nope- make clear your expectations from the get-go so no one goes and prepares a 10-minute opus. If someone starts talking over, maybe you could do something funny to make them stop, like blow a whistle? I dunno... you know I hate speeches so I made G and D promise not to do any.
Dude and I got married on a cold March Saturday in New York City. This blog chronicles the time of our engagement, through my complaints and frustrations with socially accepted wedding traditions, through navigating complexities when marrying into a different culture, through our awesome Manhattan 115-guest wedding that people said couldn't be done and didn't send us into debt, and now onto the aftermath.
I say what I mean and I mean what I say. I nitpick everything and do not accept LOL and LMAO and ROFL as valid forms of communication. Language is what distinguishes us as humans, let's not let it degenerate.

Your dad says, you've got a dj -just play "shut up" music like they do at the Grammy's and Oscars. :)
