After all the crap you've put up with, the way you described the 'fun' here is absolutely wonderful. You're just as married as though you'd been in a great big church wedding, and you enjoyed it more.
I used to help deliver and set up wedding cakes, and we got to a reception one time and got the cake set up just in time to have a bride go ballistic (not the one we were doing the cake for) because "This isn't the room they showed us, I wanted the big room, I DEMAND the big room." and when her groom said "But they DID show us this room, it's just the right size" she turned on him and called him a ..not so nice name that you wouldn't expect a bride to call her new husband.
Of course this resulted in everything being shifted around, and we had to rebuild the cake in a different room. There was much calling of names and nasty language out the mouth of the bride. When we got ready to leave (just before the OTHER bridal party showed up) the baker and business owner turned to the groom and said "I'll bet you're glad you married her...." As we left. (quickly)
After reading this, perhaps she was a tad unfair....
