if you're getting married in the catholic church... forget about the outdoor option, when they say married in the church, they mean in the church, no ifs, ands, or buts about it. not sure what the going rate is these days, but for the wedding night, i can recommend the hotel nutibarra. beautiful place, 4 star, lots of interesting features.

Congrants on your upcoming marriage and good luck.
Now this is how I feel about this topic. Why would anyone in their right mind wanna be married? I love eating double whopper burgers but NOT every single day. Now that I’m single again, I get to eat different dishes. Women feel and taste different, some are tight, some loose, some taste fishy others like chicharron. Hey! I like tight with that chicharron taste, but not every single day. Some girls have nice ass some have wide square ass, other are as flat as pancake. Sometimes I wake up with the urge to eat pancake.
Maybe when I finally grow up, just before i crok, I'll see the sanctity of marriage, but right now, esa vaina no es pa mi.

I'll get there, when I get there!

In Las Vegas you could order girls from a menu.

Listen, this thing goes both ways, I’m sure no broad in her right mind wanna see my naked ass every single day. I’m not the most disgusting guy in the planet, but I’m pretty close to that title. I had hookers reject me even I after I offered them a little extra cash. Some walk into my hotel room smoking a joint and drinking a bottle de aguardiente, and I fully understand why. They wanna be nearly unconscious when I get on top of them

I'll get there, when I get there!

Elmo,
Dress up like a Elmo,

Dress up like a little boy and Mark Foley will take you. Heck, bring a bottel of aguardiente and spring him out of the rehab center he is in.

Mark Foley is about my age and good looking, but I'm not THAT desperate, NOT YET ANYWAYS
My nephew in Barranquilla called me yesterday “tio, estoy comiendo cable” he’s broke. I told him “nojoda marica, vende el culo o pon a tu muje a putia en una esquina porque ahora mismo estoy mondao tambien,” “prostitute yourself or put your wife to work the street cus I’m broke too” we laugh. “Tio, estoy muy gordo, no voy a encontra un marica que me coma” which I replied “entonce ponte a rebaja gordo hijueputa, deja de come tanta mierda y veras el chorro de maricas que te van a querer culiar”.
It all comes down to; you gotta do, what you gotta do. If you need money and don’t wanna take a chance ending up in jail, then you gotta sell the only thing you have, your ass!

I'll get there, when I get there!

Where to get married If the actual marriage ceremony is catholic, it's difficult to get a priest to perform the ceremony outside a church but it could happen. Now, there are some excellent places where you can arrange for a big party.
I'd recommend:
- Intercontinental Hotel
- Dann Carlton Hotel (great view from the top floor ballroom

i'd say next to impossible... we wanted to get married at the finca we rented, figuring, get married there, not too far for the reception there too. but, the priest said nope, in the church. not as easy going as here in the states.

$10,000 budget?! you'll have one hell of a party then! for us, we rented an about 10-12 acre finca for 3 days, catered dinner with waiters, dj and music, all the decorations, grease for the priest (candle fund), her dress (specially done, not off the rack and adjusted), and all the other little details for the wedding and reception for over 80 people, for just under $3900, and that included spending the wedding night in a suite at the hotel nutibarra in medellin...

My reaction is the same as famsearch's. We had a reception for 100 in Laureles which included dinner, video, photos, live music, open bar, tailored dresses for the bride and bridesmaids. It came out to about $3000.

Disclaimer: any comment I make is inane and is not to be taken seriously, and is so patently ridiculous that no one should take it seriously, even as an insult.

also you could rent "El Castillo" and throw the party there... man, you can get a reaaally nice party with that money... i will look as a 100k dollars party in the states... just be sure there's enough guaro for your fiancee's uncles

only one thing i didn't like about it.... was that during the reception, my sis in law pulled me aside, and told me that one of our relatives had overheard one of the people handling the dinner said something disparaging about "pushy americans". needless to say, to hear something like this, on what i wanted to be my wife's big day (she never heard about this), i was royally pissed off. i told my sis in law that i wanted to talk to this person myself, but, she said no, that she would handle this in her own sweet way. being the only other american there that night, i was left wondering how we were being pushy. later on, my sis in law told me that she had caught up to this person, and in her own marine corps trained way, quietly put this person straight. she didn't tell me everything she told this person, but one of the things was that she didn't see americans there, and she didn't see colombians there, all she saw there was family, pure and simple. knowing my sis in law, i wouldn't want the fear of her put in me...
