DON"T WRITE YOUR OWN VOWS
It's embarrassing and stupid and self indulgent. If you two have all kinds of mushy things to say to each other, say it in private.
"For better or for worse, for richer or poorer, in sickness and in health, forsaking all others as long as you both shall live." has been said for hundreds of years and sounds pretty good to me. Believe me we really don't care that you are "best friends" and can't wait to "travel through life together"
yadda yadda
MAKE SURE YOU HAVE LIQUOR AND LOTS OF IT!!
We don't care if you or your husband are "recovering". Your guests want alcohol and you better give it to them. Even if it's only wine and beer. Just don't run out.
SAME GOES FOR VEGETARIANS! If there is nothing on the menu you can eat than don't fucking eat! Most Brides and grooms don't eat much anyway.
"LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, FOR THE FIRST TIME IN PUBLIC MAY I PRESENT "MR. AND
MRS. SO AND SO!!"
This is so ridiculous. We know you just got married. We were there, remember?
YOUR "WEDDING WEBSITE" IS A HUGE WASTE OF CYBER SPACE
Who the hell thought this up? Don't you have better things to do with your time. Like hiring a band, DJ, caterer etc.
WEDDING PROGRAMS
This is not a Broadway show.
DON"T TAKE OFF YOUR VEIL FOR THE RECEPTION
How many times in your life do you get to wear a veil and look like a bride (one other time if your Catholic). Com'on look like "THE BRIDE" All the little girls at your wedding will worship you. Which brings me to:
"NO CHILDREN ALLOWED" WEDDINGS
Kids are fun. You never know what they will say or do next. Imagine all those little girls "dancin' on Daddy's shoes" and all those little boys sticking their fingers in you wedding cake. This is what makes great memories.
BRIDAL REGISTRIES
I'm not saying you shouldn't register. You definitely should. Just don't advertise it. Bridal registries are for guests that don't know you that well or have no imagination. Don't worry, they'll ask your mother or somebody else. When I registered at Macys for my wedding the saleswomen asked for my guest list so she could send out cards to all my guests. I told her in so many word that she was" out of her fucking mind."
STUPID WEDDING FAVORS WITH YOUR NAMES AND DATE
We don't want theses. REALLY! we don't.Well maybe your Grandma does.
Thats it for now. I'm sure I'll think of more though.
Funny!!!
ReplyDeleteI like it!
Your right nobody wants those stupid wedding favors. It's a waste of money.
Hey - Don and Beth had personalized M&M's in little tins. I loved them! But, my mom went to a wedding for one of her co-workers around Christmas and all the guests got tree ornaments with the couple's name on them. Who the hell are these people and how did they get on my Christmas tree?!?
