Weddings are wonderful but man, they're work. I know, I just got married - if you're doing the same thing this year, lemme help you out.

The KLAQ Mega Marriage returns Friday, at Southwest University Park, at noon, presented by Johnson Jewelers. Who, just sayin', have a great deal on wedding rings for Mega Marriage couples.

For years the Q held the Mega Marriage every Valentines Day and joined hundreds, (maybe thousands, I lost count), of couples in matrimony. For 2025, it's back and here's why it's a good thing for you.

If you're planning to get hitched this year, the Q Mega Marriage is perfect for you. I recently got married myself and here are some things my wife and I learned that make us wish this event had come back sooner.

Weddings are super expensive, a planning nightmare and loaded with a zillion little details that nobody, (except couples drowning in them), really thinks about. It's CRAZY. Trust me.

You need a venue and that's tough as they get booked WAY in advance. Pro Tip: The wife and I got married at Hacienda De Mesilla in Old Mesilla. Close, very reasonable and the food was on POINT! Seriously, keep them in mind ... even if just for an anniversary celebration or something. Sunday - Funday - whatever.

After venue, comes flowers and cakes and food and DJ's; along with clothing and limos and hotel rooms and photographers and planners and endless meetings and samplings ... it's insane.

Decorators too which, thankfully, we were blessed with not only the sweetest venue ever but the best decorator ever - Shelly Mozelle from the City Magazine. She nailed everything.

That's sooo not all but you get the point. Which is why there's one simple reason you should tie the knot Friday with us. That simple reason being the fact that it IS simple.

You show up, get married in a very unique environment that few others will ever be able to claim, there's a ton of room for ALL your friends and family ... family members who don't get along can sit hundreds of feet apart ... the decorating is handled and you can wear whatever you want.

We also throw in the best man/maid of Honor - Buzz Adams & Joanna Barba and if you need any last minute advice, help ... tequila shot maybe ... I'll be there too.

Best of all; it's also the most romantic day of the year - Valentines Day. C'mon now. On top of all that, it'll only set you back $50. That and your bar tab at the official after party/reception which, just so you know, takes place at B-17 Bombers Oyster Pub.

See you Friday ... if you're smart ...
