I can't wait for the traditional wedding to die out. It's such a fucking scam of an industry.

It's money spent throwing a party and inviting your friends. It doesn't matter if its traditional or non traditional.

Throwing a rave as a wedding would be non traditional. Yet it wouldn't be news if someone charged money to go to the rave that they setup.

Prices for anything related to weddings is blown out of proportion.

But it also wouldn't have to be perfect. I'm sure you don't have 30 shades of napkins to pick from for a rave and if some wall decoration falls down mid rave it wouldn't be a big deal

There's not family or friend pressure to attend a rave dude, apples and oranges.
