And, what do you do if the answer is no?

yes I would.

JodieG1 · 08/02/2007 15:26

And it's our 5th anniversary today

WigWamBam · 08/02/2007 15:27

Yes, in a heartbeat.

Would have a different wedding though, and make sure I got what I wanted rather than having to keep everyone else happy!

Imafairy · 08/02/2007 15:29

In a shot.

OrmIrian · 08/02/2007 15:37

Yes. In fact I'd like to do it again once the kids have grown and gone and we regain time and room for us.

mylittlestar · 08/02/2007 15:38

Definitely. But I'd make sure the wedding cake didn't get cut up and served to the other wedding that was taking place in the same venue at the same time

Paddlechick666 · 08/02/2007 15:38

if i'd had a crystal ball and could see what the first 2 years of married life would bring........

no

btw, it's our 2nd anniversary at the end of march!

i love him to bits, i wouldn't change our dd for the world but i've ended up a single married parent with none of the advantages of either single or married.

his depression is crippling and i just wish i could have the wonderful man i married back.

i'm probably ashamed to say, if i'd seen his depression, the financial ruin, the heartache of his absence and the stress of it all i'd have probably run a mile!

saadia · 08/02/2007 15:39

yes I would, because it gave me this life and these dss. I wouldn't want things to be any different and he is a good dh and father.

CountessDracula · 08/02/2007 15:40

Yes

CountessDracula · 08/02/2007 15:41

In fact I occasionally think of divorcing him just so we can have all the fun of getting married again, but would never do something as cringworthy (imo) as renewing vows

Heathcliffscathy · 08/02/2007 15:41

Yes

motherinferior · 08/02/2007 15:43

There's an episode of the Simpsons where Homer does that, CD.

Am not the marrying type myself.

CountessDracula · 08/02/2007 15:43

soph did you like my imo

I have learned something today you see...

wartywarthog · 08/02/2007 16:13

definitely

Emprexia · 08/02/2007 16:52

Right at this moment, the answer is no. I'd have followed my first instinct the first time i saw him lose his temper and walked away.

If i could undo it and still have my son, that'd make me happy.

Hulababy · 08/02/2007 16:55

Yes, I would.

In a flash!

footinslug · 08/02/2007 16:57

yes, I reckon I would and I'd do it the same way (in a registry office, on our own, no family just close friends to witness)

I probably wouldn't do it again on the day we moved house and when dd was 4 months old (so I was still v tubby and covered in baby sick)

WideWebWitch · 08/02/2007 16:58

Yes, both times. Dh1 may not have been the man for me but we're friends, have a lovely ds together and I'm still very close to his wonderful family. So I wouldn't change that,

and dh2 am still married to and have dd with and I wouldn't change that either.

Saturn74 · 08/02/2007 16:58

Absolutely 100%.
Same wedding, same honeymoon, same debt - everything!

NadineBaggott · 08/02/2007 17:01

yes, nobody else would have me!

cheekychick · 08/02/2007 17:01

Absolutely {shouting from the rooftop}

ssd · 08/02/2007 17:06

absolutely definately

and I hope to Christ he's still marry me!!
