Saw this story in recent news:

I recently heard that someone is planning to try to do a mass wedding in the US, with some as yet unnamed "big name talent" performing at the event, and great travel package deals to get there, and more perks TBD.

Would any of you ever consider marrying at such an event?

I don't think so. For me its more about celebrating with family and friends. But if it were one of FH's favourite bands... then maybe!!

Hell no. I never understood these things. What is the appeal?! They always seem sort of cultish.

Absolutely not. I wanted to celebrate with family and friends, not thousands of people I've never met and will never see again.

@Lorienne: I wouldn't. I know the end result is yay! We're married! but I want that moment to be shared by my friends and family.

Absolutely not! It seems like it has all the impersonality of a courthouse wedding and all the possibility for confusion and delays of a huge wedding--not a good combination.
