[quote=Anonymous][quote]For me that would be a no-brainer - assuming that I have a relationship with my father - because what I would gain in terms of [b]asserting my independence and non-compliance with tradition[/b] would pale in comparison with the hurt my father would feel. [/quote] Perhaps, for you, it would be 'an assertion of independence and non-compliance with tradition' for some of us it is much different and deeper. My father would have been appalled if I had set aside my beliefs to satisfy his ego. That wasn't the way he raised me. Like a PP, DH and I walked down the aisle together. We also didn't do any unity candles or that sort of thing. But all in attendance were invited to participate (sort of a call and response) because we believe that marriage isn't just about family but also about community.[/quote]
