Real Americans

"Wedding bells meant the Mexican fast food chain Taco Bell for Paul and Caragh Brooks. Customers inside the fast-food restaurant continued to order tacos and burritos as the couple sat in an orange Taco Bell booth and exchanged vows earlier this week. The entire wedding cost about $200, with the couple deciding to wed at the restaurant because they both like to spend time at their local Taco Bell."

These, my friends, are real Americans. Fun-loving, adventure seeking, mavericks. Not out there harming anyone or defacing anything to get their 5 minutes of fame. It maybe true that we dont share the same faith, but I sincerely hope they have many years of happy marriage and hold true to their vows.

And with this, I've now reached my 300th post.

Cheers ^^.

What is your secret? I started my blog around the same time you did, and guess what, I have yet to reach the hundred posts mark :S

A $200 wedding, in sharp contrast to very expensive marriages here. And the sad this is, the divorce rate here has almost reached 50% level !!

Can we start having similar weddings here? I don't think so, at least not in our lifetimes I guess :-)

Dubai Guy,

I honestly dont know, I just blog whenever I'm in the mood to write. Before I knew it I had reached 100posts, then 200, and now 300 ;)

Unfortunately,divorce rates seem to be up all over the world. Sad, but true.

I imagine that anything is possible - even a $200 wedding in Dubai ;) I think all it would take is a few influential trend setters to pave the way.. though ur probably right about it not being anytime soon.

Extravagate,

That will be one heck of a story for the kids and grandkids ;)

Thanx =) My laptop has gone haywire and needs to be reformated. I'll probably take it tomorrow moring and hope that they get it done ASAP - having to use the family comp is TRES weird X_X
I'm moving to the dorms this semester and with a new experience like that I know they'll be plenty to blog about ^^
