    WTF...
    Why would you even want a picture like that? I have no need for pictures of my friends in their underwear. Or well, at least that aren't used for blackmail purposes. Sure pics of my FI in her undies, yes, very much, right away please. But friends? Or even family? No, no thank you.

    What, you mean this isn't how you and your friends spend time together?! Sadly I'm sure this will be the next "BMs in robes" trend, some brides will inevitably think this is THEBESTIDEAEVEROMG and purchase coordinating lingerie sets instead of robes.

    And now brides have to assign points to their friends in order to determine whether or not they are good enough to be bridesmaids. I can see it now with the snowflakes: "Oh even though I hang out with you every Friday, we have only known each other for 4 years, my parents were the first people that I called, and I don't trust your opinion on fashion, so you only get 2 points. You need 6 to be my bridesmaid, sorry. But you can still man the guest book for me!"

    What about my sister who is such a bratty mess that our brother suggested Clorox as a present? She's not a +10, more like a -1,000,000,000,000,000

    How on earth would you get melted chocolate and gooey, caramelized marshmallow out of all the nooks and crannies of that ring?

    Just icky.

    And worse - the waste of perfectly delightful junk food by a filthy ring.

    The points thing made me laugh. I counted--all of my bridesmaids got 7 points exactly. (Because of the "makes you happy" thing.)

    I do know people who like the group boudoir thing. They even had a sexy pillow fight picture. Not my thing, but whatevs.

    If you need points to decide who your best friends are, you're doing life wrong.

    Mine are 10, 11, and 7! Points not ages. And only because they got the make me happy points. Also two are guys, do they loose points? I think that's what always pisses me off the most. Most of this bullshit assumes a heterosexual wedding with girls on one side and guys on the other. Well fuck you and your heteronormative bullshit. 

    Your groom, might want his own sister to stand with him. Your two best friends might be dudes, even if your a girl. Even if your a straight girl. And fuck yeah you should have them stand up with you. They're your best friends. No one should give a shit. And if anyone does. Well ya know, this time, it is your fucking day.
    They clearly left of +eleventy billion points for possessing a vagina.

    Look at the photo again. I have a feeling they just put a marshmallow on either side of the ring, vertically instead of horizontally. That way, the ring stays clean.

    It's a neat illusion. It took me a second to figure out that the ring wasn't actually around a marshmallow.

    I still think it's stupid, though.

    On the points... most of the points went to my sisters who also happen to be my BFFs. FI's sister, nope you generally don't make me happy to be around you. Hell that's not even true of one of my BFF's. I love her but homegirl can be kind of annoying sometimes.

    My old roommate, whom I now very much dislike, has a wedding board on pinterest. She's 27 and has the mentality of a 15 year old so I decided to peruse her pins. The whole thing made me throw up in my mouth a little bit. I'll have to go stalk it again and see what she's pinned that HASN'T already been posted here.

    I have to seriously snark on the Tiffany blue thing.  Even before Pinterest was created, a sorority sister of mine did the Tiffany blue theme.

    It looked horrible.

    She chose taffeta for the bridesmaid dresses and the chair ties.  Taffeta. In Tiffany blue. It screamed 80's, especially because the dresses were floor length with asymmetrical pickups. 

    (That being said, a coworker also chose Tiffany blue but made much better choices in fabric and gown styles so it wasn't tacky-city.)

    Actually, barring family and long-time family friends, I can totally get behind this. Why invite people you don't really have a relationship with?

    "Have you ever spent time together outside of work?" - I spend 40+ hours a week with my coworkers... I don't need to see them over the weekend too to consider them my friends. That's longer than I see my other friends or family in a week.

    "Has your FI ever met this person?" - Between out of state family, friends we don't see as often as we'd like due to schedules, and those friends' spouses, there will probably be 100 people at our wedding who one of us has never met before. A few more neither of us has ever met, if they're someone's new SO. Doesn't mean we shouldn't invite them.

    "Would this person invite you to their wedding?" - Irrelevant. The size and contents of someone else's guest list are not my business.

    That's fair. I don't think any one of these things is an instant no, but if none of these are true then I would reconsider that person.
