I have been to one wedding in my lifetime. It was kind of a relaxed wedding for a family friend at my church. Had a decent little time. Generally, a wedding does not sound enticing to me as a single early 20s guy. If I want to drink and dance I can just go to a bar on Friday night. So my inquiry is do other guys not think much of weddings?
Weddings are great for single men. Women looking their best and drinking. What is not to like?
Exactly. I love going to weddings. Bringing a date to a wedding is like bringing sand to the beach. I have never gone home alone after attending a wedding.
Single gay guys generally like weddings for the pomp
And ceremony as well as the outfits. Single straight guys who like weddings go for the single women. Weddings get many of them in the mood to hook-up. Add alcohol and it's easy pickings. Another reason some guys go is for the free meal and drinks.
All of our single guy friends have attended mutual friends' wedding, more to see old college friends (and enjoy the open bar) than to meet single ladies. Sure, that'd be a bonus, but it's more about a chance to get together and celebrate with their buddies.
Receptions are always a good time, if it is non-alcoholic it's a no go for me though.
The actual wedding is unimportant to me, unless it was a really close friend.
Ok, I'll rethink my answer. Weddings are sappy and more for women. The reception, on the other hand, means good eats. Bring on the Roast Beef, Salmon, or Chicken dish. Bring on some nice country club scenery. I'll skip the alcohol - a Sprite will do. Yes, BSing with people can be cool, and I've gotten both good and bad tables for BSing.
I hated going to weddings as a single. You have all the love and ceremony of the couple being married, all the couples there who are attending, or those attending with "dates." I never found weddings, as a single, to be fertle ground for picking up single women. (Maybe if I was Owen Wilson... )
