Oh you can't even begin to prepare yourself for this one ...
My friend is getting married next year. I was chatting to him about it recently as plans are starting to take shape. He told me that they are having two full ceremonies. One for family and work colleagues, and "a few select friends" and then a SECOND full ceremony ... Which he described, and I quote, as "a kinky wedding for all our liberal friends" which I'm apparently invited to!

You will have to wear PVC :)

Its OK, tis wipe clean Grin

Charlotte3333 · 25/02/2015 17:51

Naked?
Gimp masks and handcuffs?
Assless leather chaps (unacceptable on anyone but Owen Wilson)
Smeared in butter and rolled in digestive breadcrumbs? (Imagine getting the crumbs out of your skiddlyboop)

I've no idea what a kinky wedding is. Will you come back and let us know once you've figured it out?

tobysmum77 · 25/02/2015 17:51

And you are sure he wasn't joking?

whattodoowiththeleftoverturkey · 25/02/2015 17:52

Excellent! Can't wait to hear what the favours are going to be.

benefoots · 25/02/2015 17:52

Lots of drugs?Wink

Leeds2 · 25/02/2015 17:54

Is the kinky ceremony the day after the first one? And are they both being held at the same venue?

expatinscotland · 25/02/2015 17:54

What a weirdo.

ahbollocks · 25/02/2015 17:54

Noooooo! Like a 50 shades type affair? Will the bride ride the groom down the aisle like sea biscuit?
Will the vows be read by a gimp, muffled by his gimp ball?

MagratsHair · 25/02/2015 17:56

will the male guests provide their own home made fresh confetti

Will it be a church ceremony? Shock

Pipbin · 25/02/2015 17:56

Two full ceremonies? That is bad enough in itself, but a kinky one? What is that? When is this wedding, how long do we have to wait to find out?

DorothyBastard · 25/02/2015 17:57

Oh my god I hope the invitations tell you the dress code. And that there aren't any invitation mix ups...

shakemysilliesout · 25/02/2015 17:58

They're sex people!

Swingers.

NoArmaniNoPunani · 25/02/2015 17:59

I've been to a couple of weddings of people into BDSM. They were good fun, more fun than the average wedding.

ShadowsShadowsEverywhere · 25/02/2015 18:00

He was definitely not joking. This guy has zero sense of humour at the best of times, but he is ever so serious about his relationship. It's true love you see

I will come back when I know more. It's not until next year though so long time to wait. I just has to share my shocked ness with you all!

You'll be OK just as long as they don't bring the gerbils out. Time to start panicking when you see them. In fact, if you can't find your DH in a bid to escape, just ditch him you won't want him back anyway

My friend had a formal civil partnership (pre weddings) and a drag style civil partnership. They believed while both families where supportive they did not feel the older generation where quite ready for a few of their friends.

NamesNick · 25/02/2015 18:00

perhaps they have booked Ray Davies to play at the second ceremony?

is the bride called lola? does she walk like a woman and talk like a man?

NoArmaniNoPunani · 25/02/2015 18:01

He's obviously wrong about you being one of his liberal friends.

ShadowsShadowsEverywhere · 25/02/2015 18:02

X posts, see I don't think they ARE sex people. Not at all. I've known him my whole life almost and he's never ever mentioned anything to suggest he's into BDSM and I've got other friends that are so he would have no reason not to mention it iyswim. If it's coming from anyone I think it's coming from her. But it's just SO out of character.

Reserve judgement. This has potential...

Shamelessly place marking to hear what a kinky wedding entails... Currently wedding planning and looking for ideasWinkGrin

CMOTDibbler · 25/02/2015 18:05

I once went to a fab wedding where we were invited to wear 'club wear'. As all the friends were goth/metal this involved a lot of black, leather, velvet and corsets. And as much makeup for the men as for the women.
It was great, but really not what grandma would have liked tbh

ahbollocks · 25/02/2015 18:06

gerbils Grin especially if you see Richard gere.
