Good morning and Happy Monday (not) to my dear readers...
Today's topic is inspired by a conversation I overheard last weekend which left me both in hysterics and looking for a place to bang my head on, all at the same time... I am obviously not going to mention any names, but I wanted to write about it, as it's something I really can't understand - why do some women go absolutely bonkers whilst planning a wedding?!

I've watched enough wedding-themed shows (Four Weddings, Say Yes to the Dress, Whose Wedding is it, Anyway?, Bulging Brides and Bridalplasty, for example) to have realised that some brides-to-be are completely insane, and that their future husbands will be sorry 5 minutes into the honeymoon (or wedding reception, in some cases)... Honestly, who on earth would want to take part in a reality TV show where the great prize is plastic surgery for your wedding day?! I remember one instance when the bridesmaids didn't like their dresses (though in the particular circumstance, I didn't blame them - they were horrendous) and a huge fight ensued in the middle of the bridal shop between them and the bride-to-be, in which accusations were made that the bride chose those dresses so that her bridesmaids (who, in their own words, were much "hotter" than the bride) would not out-hot her on her wedding day... at which point, I changed the channel to MTV - such was my state of utter desperation...

Yesterday's conversation left me a bit baffled, to be honest, as I wouldn't have though this particular person to have said such ludicrous things, but well, people never cease to amaze, do they... How could you possibly go ape-crap over something as trivial as the colour of your cake, the size of your bridal bouquet, the fact that men generally remove their ties at some point during the reception or the fact that some people will, in fact, take full advantage of the open bar and drink themselves legless? These things are not important as long as you're getting married for the right reasons (ie. you love the person you're getting married to)! At least, that's what I think, anyway...
I just hope that the bride will forget the little things she was getting so worked up about, and enjoy her wedding day... And I also hope that if the day should come when I start acting all bride-zilla on yo asses, kindly slap me hard upside the face and refer me back to this post... :)
Until next time, cheers!
