I hope the people of Dubai got to keep the stadium.

I like a big spectacle, but once it gets over $10 mil, it’s just tacky.

Axel based the video on a short story (never read it), and it’s actually been 17 years. No, i’m not that big a fan, he went straight to #1 on my local radio station’s countdown the day our first son was born (and stayed there until the day he died)

No wedding is too extravagant unless the people paying for it go into debt to do it.

And I guarantee that the people throwing these extravagant weddings offer plenty of money to charity.

Let’s not be haters and exhibit jealousy.

And as someone who makes their living fundraising from both the middle class and the wealthy….I couldn’t serve the poor without the help I get from the wealthy. I don’t begrudge them a thing.

I don’t care how big the suit is, or how hungry the person is, no suit could feed a person for a year. Plus, suits taste terrible.

November Rain is all about the imagery and the story of Axl’s character marrying his then girl friend Stephanie…. something or other. The tragedy of it being that she dies just after the ceremony, illustrating that “nothing lasts forever in the cold November Rain”

Wanda, that’s communism (ish). What makes capitalsim great is that the rich can pass homeless people on the street and not care that the suit they’re wearing could have fed a homeless person for a year. By your method, less people starve and more people are humble. Who wants that? We are a land of oppurtunity; everybody can win the lottery. Another example; gambling.
Besides, when you think about it, what would give somebody more satisfaction, having a massive wedding or still marrying the person you love, but letting (based on the article examples) hundreds or thousands of poor people live comfortably and securely. If America’s rich didn’t epitomize spoiledness, we would appear weak in the eyes of… those guys…
God Wanda, you probably do ‘charity work’ too, right? Blech

Vanisha Mittal’s engagement party was at the Palace of Versaille. Glad to know that the Palace of Versaille is available for engagements, weddings, and bar mitzvahs.

I don’t know how much it cost, but for Celine Dion’s church wedding (the second, to renu the vows, was Egyptian inspired I think?)she had her head piece sewn into her scalp, she was actually bleeding it was so heavy.
