Can we talk about this wedding?

I am reminded of Steel Magnolias. "Her colors are pink." "My colors are blush and bashful."

I find it funny that she spelled it "advise" on the card but "advice" with the Scrabble letters.

And wtf all those weird gaps?

OF COURSE IT WAS AN UNPLUGGED WEDDING.

What's up with all the maggots/sperm on top of the wedding cake?

According to her day of schedule, there was also a gap for taking pictures. Ugh.

I also like pink, but I think my H would have asked for the ring back if I planned a reception and ceremony decor with that much pink.  I saw nothing for the groom in those pictures.

You guys, if she had to do it again, she'd pick a cheaper venue so she could do a wedding weekend.

AS IN A WHOLE WEEKEND OF THIS.

Wow. I feel like overall it was probably pretty, but way.too.much.

I also can't imagine that the groom liked very much of the decor at his own wedding. Maybe this is just me being sexist, but I don't like that much pink and glitter. I can't imagine the guy thought it was the best plan.

Well then I would only hope her guests would have the sense to bring pink suitcases

I'm sure she would have had mandatory pink outfits for her bridal party too.

I made it pretty far down the article, but stopped at the unplugged wedding sign.  That's all I could take.

Back to work for me...

The main thing I got out of this was, I REALLY want a pinata at my wedding.

I thought I'd really like to swat that lady with a bat.

OH GOD.

I could not get past the flower girl dresses. I absolutely hate those little girl dresses where it looks like she forgot her top and had to yank the skirt up under her arms to cover her chest. I could get past it on little girls, and the one flower girl looks ok, but the second flower girl is way too old for that style of dress! I feel bad for her being stuck in a dress designed for a girl half her age.

And then did you see this? "Our guests remarked that the whole setting looked like stepping into our apartment. This was not really a surprise because we brought half of our interior to the venue."

Can you imagine LIVING in that?

If I got an invitation that stated I need to wear a pretty party dress or a penguin suit, this is what I would wear:

Holy crap, I think I got a headache from all that pink!

I like pink and I think there are many pretty weddings that used pink but there is such a thing as too much and this chick catapulted herself past the point of too much.

I wonder if all of that crap really reflects either the bride or groom's personalities. It's basically like pinterest threw a wedding, not actual, real live people.

I really got distracted by the gaps in the wedding program and that stupid flower girl sign "last chance to run". Nothing is LESS funny to me than all the forcing someone to marry you crap.

That venue is stunning!  The rest... there was just so much going on!  My eyes are sad. 
The typos/spellos were killing me.  But, like PPs have said, English might not be her first language.  What drove me extra-special-nuts was all of the "Best Day Ever" stuff.  It just makes me picture a bunch of wasted girls at a bar "ZOMG Best Day EV-AR!!!  Woooooooo!"

And can I just state for the record that the headless bride/groom photo holder thingy creeps me out?

I'm just scrolling through it channeling my Inner Rainman: "Less is more, definitely.  Definitely less is more.  Definitely."

I really want to know what this poor, poor groom thought about all this... I think I see his face quietly screaming "help me!"

A PP mentioned that they brought half their apartment with them to the venue. So the poor guy has to live like that EVERY. SINGLE. DAY.

It's such a crazy coincidence that the website has a bunch of adds on it. It's almost like someone profits from convincing us a wedding needs all this shit to be beautiful. Huh.

Maggie0829

I wonder if this is what she created her wedding vision around?  She should have given her guests each a bottle to help with the overload of pink nausea.  I mean at least it went with her color scheme.

I'm also really sick of people who don't know how to use "myself" in a sentence:

Most of the paper goods and signage were illustrated and designed by myself or handmade by using free templates that I found on the Internet.

Aaaaahhhhhh! It doesn't make any sense!

hellohkb

....Well, at least it was an open bar. I would have needed it.

"I illustrated and designed most of the paper goods and signs, and handmade others using free templates I found on the internet."

Fixed! Although if this was a quote of her speaking to the author of the article I can give it a pass--people mess up all the time when they're talking. It bugs when it's due to a misguided attempt to sound "fancy" or "formal," but I can't fault someone for choosing the passive voice or the wrong use of "myself" in an extemporaneous context. I guess.

I couldn't make it past that invitation. Shit like that is why so many women think it's okay to put dress codes on the invite. AND A THEME? YOU MUST WEAR CERTAIN COLORS?

Kill me. I didn't finish reading that bullshit.

I'm going to take a vow to myself that there will not be a single solitary rhyming couplet at my wedding.

You gonna E.E. Cummings that shizzle, dawg?

I'm going to liveblog, stream of consciousness post my review.

1. Haters gonna hate.  You bitches just be jelly.
2. 1. was snark not a personal attack.
3.  Her dress and hair was gorg.  The pink balloons are a bit much, but I suspect that was the photog's idea to balance the pic.
4. Gagging at the dress code, but the cartoon version of she and FI was cute and folksy.  I like the rest of her invitation suite as well.
5. Newp to the blow me trinkets.
6.  Eyeroll to Best Day Ever.  And that whole set up.  Too busy, too much.  A for effort.
7. FGs were very pretty.
8. Eyeroll and more cliche signs.  I'm an asshole.  I hate lovey lovey frilly cliches.
9. Venue set up is very pretty.
10.  Vomit at Best Day Ever bags.  Come on, already!  I loved getting married to my DH, but honestly my wedding day was stressful as fuck and mildly annoying at time.  It was not the best day ever, sorrynotsorry.
11. The florals in the mason jars were pretty.  I hate mason jar shit but I liked those.
12. The sunglasses are a cute touch. .. but too many signs everywhere now.
13.  Gag at Last Chance to Run.  I don't find that shit funny.  It's sexist and lame.  And stahp with the fucking signs already!
14. Her timeline is confusing. .. did she have a gap?  What is with the freshen up shit?
15. Still love her dress, her bouquet is pretty, and I liked the pinata.  I really wish I had something i could have hit with a blunt object on my wedding day that would not have resulted in an assault charge and jail time.
16. Gorg reception venue.
17. Too many fucking signs!
18. Guestbook table is too busy and trying too hard.  Too much Pinterest.
19. My photobooth props that I made were waaay better.
20. Ok, I can't go on any more.  All the pink and the ombre doesn't bother me though.
