Quote from Ted in Pilot
Ted: I'm so happy for Marshall, I really am. I just couldn't imagine settling down right now. Yasmine: So do you think you'll ever get married? Ted: Well, maybe eventually. Some fall day. Possibly in Central Park. Simple ceremony, we'll write our own vows. Band, no DJ, people will dance. I'm not going to worry about it. Damn it, why did Marshall have to get engaged? [Yasmine laughs] Yeah, nothing hotter than a guy planning out his own imaginary wedding, huh? Yasmine: Actually, I think it's cute. Ted: Well, you're clearly drunk. One more for the lady!
