Charlie and the Chocolate Factory & My Wedding


What do these have in common?  Nothing of course!  But today, Fred and I booked our caterer, and I could not help but realize that several years of savings were to be no more...


But that's when I remembered the line from Grandpa George in Tim Burton's version of CTCF- the scene where Charlie wants to sell his Golden ticket for money instead of going to the Factory.  And this is what his Grandpa tells him:

Grandpa George: There's plenty of money out there. They print more every day. But this ticket, there's only five of them in the whole world, and that's all there's ever going to be. Only a dummy would give this up for something as common as money. Are you a dummy?

So this is what Grandpa George would tell ME!

Grandpa George: There's plenty of money out there. They print more every day. But this [wedding], there's only [ONE of them like it] in the whole world, and that's all there's ever going to be. Only a dummy would give this up for something as common as money. Are you a dummy?

NO GRANDPA GEORGE!  I AM NOT A DUMMY!
