—aktoflx5

20. "We chose not to register anywhere, so we didn't get any wedding gifts."

21. "Our entire bridal party is comprised of actors and musicians, so instead of a traditional ceremony, we're doing a variety show of sketches, improv sets, and musical performances. The last 'act' will be our vows!"
