Heh. Yeah, they didn't try that with me.

The in-laws did say that they wouldn't come to our wedding if we didn't get hitched in a Catholic church, though. The wife was livid and said, "Fine, don't come." I convinced her that we should just do it and have some fun with it. We picked out some great scripture for guests to recite. I forget where they came from, but it was stuff like, "My love is like a young stag, leaping over the hedges" and the like. My side of the family was all stifling laughter and her side was fuming. Good times.

My wife also told my in-laws that although we agreed to have the wedding in the church, we would not be baptizing our kids or agree to raise them Catholic. I still get an earful EVERY holiday over that, even though it wasn't my decision.

Because, I am "The Spawn of Satan!"
