Reasons why I'm incredibly pleased I'm able to have the wedding we're having:

* Ceilidh
* The groom gets to wear exciting clothes as well as the bride (who gets to wear a corset dress)
* Officiated by people who know and like us
* Music by people who know and like us
* Awesome cake by people who know and like us
* Illuminated manuscript contract! We have an illuminated manuscript about how we love each other! (Seriously, "how" is quite detailed.)
* Marriage in one of the biggest, most impressive buildings in Cambridge, which most people don't get to do
* All the little details of the ceremony seem to have found a perfect optimum that feel both "us", and "reasonably appropriate to a wedding" and ""
* Awesome people coming from all over the world to celebrate us
* Awesome vows
* The ability to throw out all of the stupid sexist traditions we didn't want!
* Reception in beautiful garden

Perhaps I should splash out on that peacock-feather waistcoat from Favourbrook, after all.

But then again, it's Bad Form to outshine the bride, let alone the groom at their wedding. No matter how dashing one might be...
