A girl dreams about her wedding since the day she buys her first Barbie doll and her first Kent. No matter how different every girl is we always want to have this perfectly awesome wedding where you are the center of attention and everybody dies to be you. In "Marrying Absurd" by Joan Didion we can experience how different a wedding can be from one to another and how many people choose to get married in Las Vegas.
Las Vegas as everybody knows has being categorized as the place with the fastest weddings; a wedding could take between 10 to 30 minutes, whatever the couple decides. Also you can get married by Elvis, the king of Rock and Roll, or the priest of preference. This magical moment is being transformed every day in respect to the bride and groom decisions.
The final point that the author, Joan Didion, leaves to the reader is that everything is being commercialized even weddings and something as personal and important as your wedding day should take you more time to think about and plan it the way you really want to. It does not matter if your dream is to have a Vegas wedding just think about it before you do something you will regret in your future.
