stuff it, bridey

| 1 Comment

With joy I delete the unwatched episodes of Whose Wedding Is It Anyway from my DVR. I enjoyed that show a lot, but enough is enough. Especially as my own planning started to get hectic, I began to feel an unreasonable resentment of all those TV brides spending more than my annual income to be pampered and hand-fed and sheltered from all possible problems.

The first season was easier to take because it had more of a range of weddings. Some high-end but some decidedly low-end, for instance one where the bride made all the food herself. (And she wasn't a Martha Stewart-style caterer either; just a young woman trying to save money.) But I guess the show decided that people were more interested in the fantasy, and the newer episodes are always about expensive weddings, except for the "budget" weddings where the narrator tut-tuts that the couple had "only" $13,000 to spend.

Congratulations!

I was so glad to stop reading Brides Magazine... this sounds like the same thing, updated for the new century.
