the pantsuit. eewwww
I can’t know the spending $20,000 on one day thing.
I dislike the trend towards the formal wedding… I know it is fantastic in some situations, but asking people to spend $350.00 on a bridesmaid dress is just crazy!
It’s not really a trend…but I reckon money dances are tacky!!!!
the silhooutte of the dress, where the bottom of the dress starts under the butt.
1. Brides who say “it’s my day, i can do whatever I want.”
2. Money trees, wishing wells, dollar dances, and any other contrivances intended to soak one’s guests for an additional contribution above and beyond the gift that they are already bringing.
Wanting to have a huge affair and expecting family and friends to help you out. GEESH!
A couple of things:
1) The pick-up skirts
2) The large diamonds on engagement rings
3) The cost of BM dresses
4) The $15k+ wedding costs (unnecessary in my opinion).
The thought that any form of “give us THIS” on the invitations is okay. Whether “this” is money or registry information, it’s the most tactless, distasteful, rude gesture by far.
More and more people seem to be ignoring etiquette because it’s “out of date.” ETIQUETTE is basically doing the right thing. Traditions can be outdated and not needed, sure (tissue in the envelopes, heck the whole thought of two envelopes…) but etiquette is not something that changes with the times.
I agree, I despise the pick up style skirts.
It reminds me of a cake topping… and the skirt is made of frosting.
I really am not a huge fan of the greek goddess thing we have going on in 2008! They have romantic flowy dresses as the trend. I’m a small bit traditional and still what the typical white strapless dress with a small fluff! Of course, I am a wedding planner and I see too much of people relying on trends to plot their wedding. I encourage people to rely on their on taste. It makes the wedding (you’ve dreamt about since you were ancient enough to know) incredible! I’ve also noticed flower girls are starting to wear fairy wings down the aisle. Not sure if I am a fan or not! I reckon in that case, people are trying to hard to make a fairy tale! Simple is better!
Awww I like pick up skirts. I don’t want to hurt anyones feelings but I reckon theme weddings are tacky. Like really extreme themes, I just don’t see why a wedding can’t be a wedding. It reminds me of when I was a kid and I had a Ninja Turtles b-day party, or my pirate party…..I do reckon if you are getting married on a holiday though it’s kind of cool to decorate those with things but the last one I went to was a Cinderlla theme. It looked like a page out of a tale book but it also made me feel like I was at a 5 year ancient girls really elaborate b-day party.
the amount of money some people spend on them!
when i get married, i’m telling my fiancee that i want something simple, with just family and friends, and we can go to the beach or something like that for free! =)
Bridesmaids dresses that are so hideous/impractical they can never be worn again
fondant covered cakes
they’re STILL doing the toss the bouquet/toss the garter business (really archaic and sexist)
DJs at receptions
slutty bridal gowns
feeding the band cold sandwiches when all the guests are having a hot meal
crazed wedding planners/brides/mothers of the bride
that woman who always gets drunk and falls on her butt on the dance floor
people who request the band play Britney Spears or any other pop tart or boy band’s music when the couple have clearly chosen completely different music
line dancing
when the couple smashes the cake into eachother’s faces when they cut the cake
same as what the other girl said those dresses that start under your butt. it’s ridiculous. and also the absolutely white weddings where everything is white: tuxedos, dresses, food, table cloth, the room, reception, and the guests too. like the mono-colored weddings people reckon look sophisticated but they make you blind! and the weddings held in overly religious churches. like jesus on the cross in a graphic picture hanging right above the couple…that creeps me out huge time.
a wedding over 5k and no house to go into…so tacky!!!
I really don’t say I despise anything if you could afford it that is them and if you can’t you don’t spend the 20 plus grand but I got married we did it our way with some imput from inlaws who paid for it and if someone did not like the fact I had boots on because of the 10 plus inches that fell that morning to terrible. I did it for me no one else. And I like my rings given to me from my husband’s grandmother that really belonged to his fantastic grandmother. If you don’t like something just don’t do it.
Pick-up skirts….I despise wedding dresses that look have the ‘melted marshmallow’ look. I don’t see how that can be considered flattering.
I despise shows like ‘Platinum Brides’ on WE that show how ridiculously expensive some weddings are… and how its a MUST to spend over 100,000 on a wedding. I like watching wedding shows, especially now that I’m plotting mine, to get thoughts and unique small aspects people have incorporated in their weddings, but please, spare me. My wedding is on a budget, and that’s ok. It’s more vital that I like who I’m marrying and that we’re pleased together than wondering where to place these 50,000 swarovski crystals.
it’s not current as much any longer, but i absolutely HATE cascade bouquets.
I also dislike all the various parties and/or ways to get money
not a huge fan of the monogrammed cake toppers….or traditional bride and groom cake toppers for that matter.
despise the butterfly releases because of what it does to the butterflies
i don’t like it when the bride lets the bridesmaids wear whatever dress they want. it looks so much better when they are uniform.
I reckon the “just the two of us” eloping things are quite selfish. You don’t have to go into debt to have a huge fancy wedding, but your families are usually people who would want to be there on your wedding day and I just feel like its not polite to cut them out of that. You are going to have to deal with these people for the rest of your married life, why tick them off starting with your wedding day?
Most certainly the pick up skirts. I simply despise those dresses.
I also despise theme weddings. I mean over the top theme weddings. Hawaiin
Weddings people can’t afford and want their guests to pick up the tab by asking for money in invitations. Yucky.
Putting registry info in wedding invites. Everyone likes to receive gifts, hey it’s fun, but a wedding shouldn’t be an automatic “Here is where you can get my gift from”.
Bridezillas- They are classless, rude, ungrateful and must be the where the phrase started “it’s my day”. For those, they should elope for just their day. A wedding is about all those involved including guests.
That’s all for the moment. More may come to mind though.
Tiaras. They are such a fashion faux pas.
Personalized anything is so 80′s.
Matchbooks, and jordan almonds (are people still doing this?)
Film cameras on the tables (this is the 21st century and age on digital, I can’t believe that people STILL throw their money on this).
Chocolate fountains
Cake toppers
and I agree with the person that mentioned the casquede bouquets. Really eighties!
and I absolutly HATE teh bubble thing. Grown up people DO NOT want to blow bubbles! At the weddings that I’ve been to no one was ever blow them
Wedding bells on the tables. Last century style
Excellent luck
Agreed with many on pick-up skirts. They’ll end up the butt-bows of our time – brides will look back with their daughters and go, “I know, it’s hideous, but it was really fashionable in 2008, I swear.”
No styles available that aren’t strapless or halter. What happened to variety?
Too many “special dances”, especially ones where the guests are supposed to just watch for song after song. I really don’t care to watch as the bride and groom do the Middle-School-Sway-Shuffle in a tight circle for four minutes, followed by the bride and dad, groom and his mom, et cetera ad nauseam.
Along the same lines – “surprise” first dances where a slow song changes abruptly to some sort of performance piece. Overdone.
“I Do Re-Do’s” – the advent of the “do-over wedding”. It’s one thing when a couple MUST get married in a quickie service due to deployment (or, in my friend’s case, where she wanted to get married before her mother passed away from breast cancer) and they want to do the huge wedding later, but just doing it over because you couldn’t afford it before or because you just didn’t like it so much, that’s crap. If someone is going to do a renewal of vows, it should mean NO bridesmaids, NO giant white dress and NO-NO-NO gifts.
I agree with you!! Those pick-up gowns are stupid. And they’re going to look as dated as puffy sleeves in a few years!
Otherwise, I despise:
-Taking out a loan, second mortgage, or emptying your savings account to throw a four hour party
-Candy Buffets
-Favors (no one really cares about these other than the bride & groom)
-Themes
-The connect that because you’re a bride, you are the center of the universe and no one else is allowed to have feelings
-Being upset that your “thunder was stolen” because your friend is getting married sooner/having a larger wedding/”stole” your colors, etc.
-Doing anything because you reckon you have to instead of because you want to
Oh God, that’s tough. Let me see.
1. The fact that nearly all gowns are sleeveless, not everyone looks excellent in one.
2. Whiny Bridezillas
3. Using neon colors in a wedding. Hot pink is not a wedding color.
4. Having color combinations that don’t match, lime green and teal? Come on.
5. Having any sort of hint towards ‘give me money’ anywhere in the invitation or ceremony or reception, it’s rude and tasteless.
6. Huge engagement rings. Since when is it necessary to spend $10K to show how much you like someone?
7. Spending money on things that have no importance to the wedding and that no one will want or use, ex. wedding favors that you wouldn’t want, but give to your guests.
8. Ocean themed weddings, there are only so many things you can do with fish decorations. And no, blue and green don’t match. The few years I had in Art classes taught me that much.
9. Bridesmaids dresses that are small enough to see their mismatched thongs. I don’t want to see your underwear and I don’t care if the 16 year ancient boys do, I don’t want to, I don’t have to and I will probably throw a towel over you so I won’t be forced to vomit.
10. Not having enough of a selection at the reception to accommodate special needs. Like some people having all sugar drinks with no alternatives. What if someone has diabetes? I guess you’ll just have to give grandma some water.
11. Parents or relatives that insist that if you don’t have a $100K wedding then you aren’t doing it right. Who says you have to go broke in order to get married? The whole purpose of the event is so that you get married, who cares if it’s done on the beach, in a hotel, a church or your backyard?
I can go on and on. I personally like weddings, I reckon they are a fantastic celebration of a new phase of life. But I don’t reckon that you should abandon all sense of decorum because it’s ‘your day’. Since when is a wedding only about the bride? Oh, another thing:
12. Brides who forget that the Groom is a part of the wedding!
Ok, I’m done. I feel better now.
I despise slutty looking bridal gowns. I also wish there was more variety. Not every bride wants to wear a strapless dress.
I despise the whole we eloped because we thought it was romantic (or whatever excuse), but come to our next wedding anyway because we need more gifts and attention. Wedding do-overs are BS.
Pick-up skirts..they look messy
Strapless………only because they are too overdone
Way Over-The Top Themes…..if I want a Cinderella, sci-fi, middle ages, pirate, halloween,gone fishing, Nascar, rodeo,vampire, redneck, etc I’ll go to a B.D party.
Cash bars…do either open bar or dry…..expecting guests to pay for their refreshments is rude.
Money dances…..it seems like the shower & wedding gift should be enough.
Bride and groom serenading each other…way too hokey, and most of ‘em can’t sing anyway
Dogs, Cats, horses, elephants, camels, etc as part of the wedding party…..can’t the ring bearer have two legs??????
Fairy wings on flower girls…..WTF??????
Blatantly asking for cash as gifts….rude no matter how it’s done…the guest decides what to give…wow……….
Inviting some to the shower & not the wedding reception….rude.
Destination weddings for first time marriage..screws so many people outta going and unfair to reckon someone can and will drop several thousand dollars to attend some one else’s wedding.
Wedding do-overs……silly & rediculous except for servicemen who are deployed overseas.
Over-done & overloaded cupcake towers…The Mothership Has Landed!
Candy Buffets…..WHY??????? Is it a wedding or a movie concession stand.
Chocolate Fountains….germy & messy………
Huge white ‘blushing bride ‘ weddings complete with bride’s maids, etc for second, third, fourth etc time brides….enough already!
This is fun!
1. I agree with pick-up skirts–to princessy and childish for my taste.
2. Mermaid dresses–they make everyone’s butt look unattractively huge.
3. Monogrammed cake toppers
4. Gaudy rings
5. Tiffany blue
6. Brown with every other color under the sun, it seems
7. Disney themes (it’s not an 8-year-ancient’s birthday party!)
8. Any theme that’s so overdone you forget you’re at a wedding
9. Greed in any form (showers on the second or later marriage, requests for cash gifts, gift card showers, sending registry information in the wedding invitation, kissing jars, money dances when they’re not an ingrained part of your culture, and on and on).
10. And the worst offense of all: do-over weddings (“I didn’t have a huge wedding when I got married, now I want one with all the trimmings and gifts and bachelorette party, etc.”).
