    LOL

    Well at worst the willing participant would be subject to a beautiful venue for the wedding, lots of live entertainment, bands and drinks.
    They'll probably be lots of (im afraid taken) handsome men at the wedding (including myself), so even if im not what's wanted, they'll be plenty of other 'eye candy'.

    So, its a win win really.
    Come on girls queue nicely, no pushing or hair pulling! ;)
  • You do know that nobody will really care that you go yourself. It's extremely unlikely you'd be the only single person there either. There's absolutely no shame in going to a wedding alone. Many would think there's a real issue with taking an escort to wedding! :eek:

    Your comment has started to sway me a little..
  • look, either take a stunning escort and pay her to do the biz, not just be on your arm, make it worthwhile is what im saying, find someone genuine, or go on your own. its your callbut every wedding ive been to has had single men and women. i can think of a few single men who have ended up getting their cards stamped so you might be lucky you never know, be positive

    I'll go with you OP :)

    Seriously though, there's no shame in going alone. After all it's family and friends. They should be the most supportive people and you should feel comfortable around them.
