Your Dolls in Your Wedding??

Sep 26, 2007

    1. Taking your dolls to your wedding? Sounds a bit silly to be honest.

      If in the unlikely event I'd get married, I would think I'd rather spend time with the husband rather than play with/show off my dolls to people.

      Not to mention the possibility of the dolls getting stolen or damaged during the reception.
       
    2. No, I'm not talking about playing with them and showing them off. I meant using them as decorations at the reception. I for one LOVED Azurielle's set-up of the dolls made to look like her and her husband as a display next to the wedding cake!
       
    3. I'd love to have my dolls at my wedding--when I get them of course! I doubt I'd incorporate them into the wedding but...heh. I think I'd love to have my sweet Echo in my arms, holding a pretty bouquet of flowers as I walk down the aisle. Wouldn't that be adorable??? xD
      Naturally Seraphinius would have to be present somewhere, I couldn't just leave him at home!!!
       
    4. Hm...hard to say. While I think the idea of maybe two dolls, bride and groom, right where the guests sign in or something, or two tinies actually atop the wedding cake, would be absolutely adorable and beautiful, I'm not sure if I would ever use any of my dolls in my wedding. I don't have any tinies ( nor do I ever plan to ) nor do I have any girl dolls ( and once again, don't plan to xD ), and while I love my boys to death, I'm not so sure they'd fit in too well, or be all that comfortable themselves ;)

      But hey, I don't even have a boyfriend, so few years down the road, let's see where my dolly collecting and boyfriend hunting has gotten me and then figure out how off this post really may be xD
       
    5. I plan to get a cute fox and kitty bjd... haven't decided which company yet... to be kind of cake toppers... except they will have their own pedestal... for my wedding... to represent the two of us... he wants to be a snow fox though and I have no idea how to go about painting that!!!
       
    6. The idea sounds interesting but I'd probably keep mine away from the hustle and bustle of a wedding where they might get snatched or damaged.

      But I'll admit the idea of two tinies on the wedding cake sounds adorable though. Bride and groom Pukis on top of a huge cake? Yeah, I might consider that. :XD:
       
    7. I don't take any of my dolls to any family gatherings of any sort. A wedding would just seem, out of place ?
      I just wouldn't bring them. Thats like saying bring them to prom. And I didn't feel it was appropriate for me to be carrying around dolls. It is possible to have fun without your dolls. .-.
       
    8. I was debating largely on that idea, but for rigth now, i need to complete my boys first.
       
    9. I think it could be nice to have them as decorations if they are used effectively, not used as a "bouquet" for the bride or something. However, for me I would not want to think about my doll in that situation. If the doll adds to the effect/look of the wedding then it's cool. But I wouldn't want my doll getting mistreated in any way either
       
    10. I wouldn't include dolls unless it was something my partner and myself SHARED. If we got married and my partner was indifferent to dorries, I wouldnt want them there, it's just selfish.
       
    11. lol, i would wanna get 2 pukis for the cake decoration.
      Future Husband: $300 for cake toppers??
      Me: ....um...yeah...they're expensive nowadays *shifty eyes*

      After wedding...2 pukis! YAY! XD
       
    12. i just got married about 3 weeks ago. i was wanting to have some of my dolls in the wedding, but after much deliberation with myself, i decided against it. i would have been too busy to keep an eye on them, and i feared that they would have been handed, dropped, or worse, stolen.

      so instead, i took Yuki, Shiro, Mia and Sakura with me up to my parents house, where i was to get ready, and just had them there for company. the photographer was really interested in them, and took many pictures of them. including ones with my jewelery. so that was alot of fun

      so if you are considering having your dolls in your wedding, please think about what i thought about. where are they going to be? are you going to have them around you all the time? what will happen when you leave for photographs? would you possibly offend someone? would you scare someone? all those things you really have to think about. if anything, have a party afterwards with your dolls and fellow doll owners you know :)
       
    13. When I get married either I will do the same as Azurielle, or I'll just bring Rune to help keep my nervous. She's my frist girl, and the sweetess thing in my eyes, so it's just right to have her there. Besides all my bridesmaids are also into Bjd and my family already knows I'm a nut so, either way it'll work out. ^_^
       
    14. If I ever got married, I think maybe that I would bring them with me -- but probably not to the actual reception. Though I do like the idea of tinies for cake-toppers, I know that I, for once, as a little child, loved to play with cake toppers after the cake was cut. So unless I had a protective case to put the tinies in immediately afterword, I would most likely exclude dolls completely.
      Though, I am definately liking the idea of having them near in the dressing room. I tend to get very nervous very easily - I can only imagine what a wedding would do to my nerves! :lol: The kids do calm me down, so I think -- Yes, before the wedding would be nice, and just lock them in the dressing room until after.
       
    15. I think it would be cute to have them dressed for the occassion, and have them as some sort of display.... maybe in the reception hall? Or near the guestbook?

      But yeah, if my husband didn;t like them, or was indifferent about them, they wouldn't be there. We would both have to agree before I even began to think about including them.

      But ha! Just broke up with boyfriend, and have no plans on dating for a WHILE.... so marriage is a far off dream XD
       
    16. mmm I'd love to have two of my future planned dolls as a centerpiece at my table dressed as a bride and groom for my wedding *if I get married* Although I think something like using two little pukis as a wedding cake topper would be amazingly cute.
       
    17. I've never really thought about it but I doubt I would unless as has been mentioned it was a tiny used as a cake topper

      and I'd oly to that if I saw a tiny I really really wanted, I wouldnt get one just so I could have a doll at the wedding
       
    18. Haha! That made me giggle.



      >_> If I ever get a man, he definitely needs to be able to put up with dolls (and all my other eccentricities). I'd totally bring Saif (and his girlfriend assuming I've bought her by that time) and get him a tux! xD
       
    19. My boyfriend is indifferent to my hobby for the most part, but excited like crazy when Gwenllian gets new eyes or wigs (and he calls me a weirdo...) so it would be bizarre for us to have them at our wedding. They're definitely my thing rather than his and he wants to travel for a bit before we really settle down, so my dolls will be in storage for 12 months or so while we do that (although I will probably have to bring Gwenllian on our travels, she's my first and my favourite.)

      By the time we get back, I don't expect his feelings on BJDs will have changed enough for us to have them there when we get hitched, particularly if it occurs here, with family and friends present. If it ends up being just us and a couple of witnesses grabbed off the street, then hell yeah, Gwenllian is going to be bridesmaid :D But like I said, if it is the traditional kind of wedding, there wouldn't be any place for them. My boyfriend's hobbies are photography and making custom guitars. I guess we could have a cake topper made of a mini guitar and a tiny, (which would be kinda awesome) I don't think it would make much sense to anyone who wasn't us and my mother would be most displeased. My wedding day is probably more important to her than it is to me!
       
    20. I'll be getting married next year and-nope no BJD at the wedding. I wouldn't even consider it for very much the same reasons Dagger said. Our wedding is going to be rather large and considering how insanely BUSY I'm going to be on that day, it's one more stress I don't need.
