    Font - whosthisdork 4 hr. ago I hate the tradition of everyone clinking their glasses and making the newlyweds kiss. I found it cringe af at my OWN wedding. People kept doing it at my friends' wedding during dinner and I'm just like "let the poor brides eat their meal, they'll kiss plenty today!"

    Font - c 5 hr. ago The expectation that the people getting married can't see each other on morning of/before the wedding that day. I feel like it'd be nice to spend the whole day with your partner and getting ready together for your big day sounds very romantic to me

    Font - 3toeddog 4 hr. ago People at weddings need to stop turning to the unmarried couples there and asking them "are you guys next?" So rude. There are lots of reasons why people don't or wait a long time to get married and their status is none of anyone's concern but their own.

    Font - LilRedCat Bear 5 hr. ago Stop forcing an bridesmaids dress on people who clearly will be uncomfortable wearing it because it doesn't work with their body type. Pick a color, and let your bridesmaids buy their own dress that they feel comfortable in.

    Font - house-of-MoMo 4 hr. ago Just stop weddings, period. It's so overrated and weird to throw a party for 200+ people just to be left with a $50,000 bill. And a lot of the times it's just to show off or outdo others as to who can have the most or best extravagant wedding. Weird.
