Much has been said about Miley Cyrus’ June engagement to Liam Hemsworth. The pop star is, after all, only 19 years old, and some people think that’s just too young to tie the knot. But now there’s a whole new kind of controversy surrounding her nuptials; apparently Cyrus may want to have three wedding ceremonies! So would that be an excessive move, or simply an acceptable alternative to the norm? Click here to read more and then let us know!
Miley’s dad Billy Ray was the one who mentioned that guests may have to save more than one date:
Now, [Miley and Liam] are going to have three weddings, so I’m thinking one movie with Chris [Hemsworth], then we got the sequel to Liam’s new movie [Hunger Games: Catching Fire] coming out. They have got three weddings, that has to be three movies for me.”
However, according to the source, “Billy Ray is certainly still speaking about the ceremonies in very far-off terms.” So obviously there’s plenty of time for plans to change. But still, just the idea of three weddings sounds daunting, even if I were a celebrity! Nonetheless, it’s her big day (or days), and I think Miley has every right to celebrate how she wants…as long as she doesn’t get miffed if guests don’t attend all of the ceremonies. [via Gawker]
What do you think of Miley possibly having three weddings? Is it tacky or fun?

It’s her money and her life. Why should anyone care what she does with it? 3 is excessive, but the couple who had multiple wedding ceremonies in multiple countries was ZOMG cute? Oh, I forgot. Celebrities aren’t allowed to spend their money however they want.

If it pleases the bridal couple to have THREE weddings, by all means they should. Especially since they can afford it. I’ve heard of people doing multiple ceremonies, especially if their families are far away and unable to attend a central event, or they have different cultures and/or faith. Also, if they plan on having a tiny, intimate destination wedding ceremony and then they might want to have a bigger celebration with friends and family later. I really doubt any of her guests will feel obligated to attend all the events. Just because a person is invited, it does not mean they must attend them all. Also, I been to wedding celebrations where there was an early dinner for the relatives, and a later dance party type for their friends.

My cousin had 5 weddings earlier on this year as she couldn’t accommodate all guest in one go. Just saying.

Three weddings sounds amazing. I want three weddings with my groom-to-be!
guest
she’s one of those people that will spend more time getting married than actually being married. also, what the hell is she doing getting married at 19? I’M 19 and couldn’t imagine doing that shit right now.

I’m sorry, but his quote didn’t make a lick of sense to me. Maybe I just can’t read plain English.

According to Miley from Ellen, she will have just one wedding.

But, I can understand why some would put on multiple weddings (big relatives, friends and family from different locations).

I think Miley having three weddings is tacky. Having three of them takes away the ‘special experience’. Unless you both have different faiths, I think you should stick to one wedding. But different people have different opinions. If she wants to have three weddings… All the power to her!

I absolutely love how datingish and lovelyish and all the other “ishes” talk about the things celebrities do or wear or eat in terms of whether something is an ”acceptable alternative to the norm.” This kind of attitude is ubiquitous to these kinds of “articles.” It’s just amazing that there are so many who think the rest of the world might give two cast iron shits about what they’ve declared “acceptable.”

Since around 50% of all marriages end in divorce (could be a much higher percentage in celebrities’ marriages), perhaps having 3 weddings will lessen their chances of divorce?:P Regardless, I think it’s a great idea. One cannot celebrate happiness enough so if one has the financial resources and desire, why not?

Hm, well my cousin did a destination wedding in Hawaii with just her family and the groom’s family. Then back home, it was with just extended family and older friends, then in another city where they actually live for work and stuff (2-3 hours away) they had another event for just friends and co-workers. They were just small events, but she wore the wedding dress nonetheless. I guess it really just depends on your situation.
With Miley, why not? She has the money for it and wouldn’t want any of her family/friends to miss the important date!

@blonde_apocalypse@xanga - it’s how they get viewers/readers/commenters and generate revenue from the ads and keep the site (and jobs) alive. They rarely do care about content, but that’s just how pretty much all social media sites work.

If I could afford it, I would have had several celebrations. Why? To help people get to come and witness me being wed, even if it won’t be the first time. So many were unable to attend due to their commitments in life, it would have enabled them to be a part of this big time in my life.
It would have given me a chance to have a church wedding, an eloping wedding (running off, just me & him), and an outdoorsy wedding. My dream was to have an outdoors wedding. Didn’t happen, as you guys know. Nothing went according to how I thought it would. LOL I would have loved to have had it go more like what I thought it would have.
Oh well.
So, I don’t think it’s a bad idea. I may not agree with how she chooses to do it or her reasons, but I don’t know those yet for her. I can see the good ideas for it, so I hope that’s more so her reasoning.
In closing, don’t do things just to be different. Do things because you want to, in your heart of hearts.
That’s just my 2 cents,
