Keeping it Greek means no chidrens and stuff to be loaded down with. Also not getting hitched works. Prevention rather than damage control, you know.

Righteous. I love it when a plan comes together. (Terrible show, but appropo sentiment.)
And on that note/in the vein of krick's comment: keep the order. This means you sometimes need to step on peoples' dicks. I would've made my own list of 'musts' and 'wants', and if the 'musts' didn't match up with the rest of the group, I'dve bailed. Let them deal with the clusterfuck.
