I’m a soon to be bride myself, but not this bride, no. Aside from my own wedding planning, I’m active on wedding planning forums online and have had friends who have gotten married before me, so I know how much effort, time, and heartfelt energy go into wedding planning in order to make it a beautiful memory for all your friends and family to look back on. It’s very stressful to plan a large wedding and to have everything go smoothly despite inevitable family drama, coordinating of vendors, and other stress that is just part of the process. Girls look forward to their weddings for their entire lives, and it’s a very special and sacred transition in a woman’s life. Weddings are a time when the whole extended family comes together, many of whom may no longer be alive in 10 years. As a woman your identity literally changes on your wedding day. It’s a momentous occasion that should be celebrated, not mocked. I think trashing people’s weddings is very inconsiderate and mean spirited. To be fair, I don’t think the author fully realized how something like this can impact a bride and how hurtful it can be. Before writing any more articles making fun of people’s weddings, I would recommend that the author (and anyone else who thinks it’s a good idea to make fun of people’s weddings) spend some time on bridal forums listening to women’s stories about how much their wedding day means to them, how much effort they have put into it, the obstacles they faced along the way, and how looking back at pictures of their wedding and remembering the day brings them such happiness during bad days and hard times. I just think about how this poor bride may always remember this article whenever she thinks back on her wedding, and I feel sorry for her because of that. Wedding memories should be a happy place in your mind and a safe space, so I think criticizing people’s weddings is just very mean. Weddings are the things people remember when they are in the hospital in pain, when they are about to have surgery and are scared and trying to think of a happy memory to calm them down, and when they are on their deathbed thinking about the happiest days of their life surrounded by the people they loved most.
Maybe you will say I have no sense of humor, but I think it’s possible to be funny without tearing someone else down and tainting the happiest day of her life.
What a culturally ignorant thing to say. Why don’t you go back to hanging out with your white pals John and Marvin and drink some beer and watch some football while you complain about immigrants and talk about how awesome Trump is. k thanks
You think they are “unaware” that they are rich? lol. Just because they travel? Are they suppose to apologize for being rich on their wedding day to make people see how “aware” they are?
The first few paragraphs were funny, but then it just devolved into cruel bashing. I feel sorry for the bride. She probably cried when she read this. Brides put a lot of time and effort into planning a wedding that fits their own personality, so for you to shit on their wedding so much is not only mean and nasty, but frankly also quite sexist. I get it, you are jealous that they have more money than you. Most people accept that people have different income levels and go about life just fine without flipping a shit at people for being rich. Your essay is filled with such hatred of them purely for being born into money, which they had no control over. I hope you get some much needed therapy for you rage and jealousy issues. Hating people simply for being rich and having a wedding is not healthy for you.
And also, criticizing their age difference was just weird and unnecessary. You would think that in an age where people of different races and sexes can marry one another that marrying someone of a different age wouldn’t be worthy of criticism, but you seem to disagree. I think you owe this bride an apology for all the nasty things you said. Ames chose to go on a reality show so criticize him all you want, but this poor girl just wanted a nice wedding announcement, and then you go and shit on her wedding, her marriage, her career choices, her age, and her hobbies. You don’t know her. How dare you. I don’t know her either, but I do know the only person who looks like an asshole in all of this is you. There is funny and then there is bullying. It’s very clear category you fall under. Good luck with your issues.
I think it’s more scary that some of you don’t find it unethical to shit on someone’s wedding day. Enjoy your lack of a moral compass.
you sound single.
