Themed wedding ceremony. One was lightly medieval themed and one was heavily Civil War, complete with historically accurate costumes. It was important to the bride. The groom didn't care for it and had a temper, which he couldn't control, even during the reception. She finally had enough of him about a year later. Last I heard, she upgraded to someone better and got full custody of the kid. Could have saved her a massive investment in handcrafted hoopskirts......

Could this be generalized to: if the couple is in obvious disagreement about something in the wedding, it's a bad sign? Are themed weddings a bad sign, even if both partners are enthusiastic about the theme?

I don't know, you make a good point. I'm just saying, go cautiously to a themed wedding. Carry more gun than you think you're gonna need. =)
