As years unfold, decades past. I felt that wedding nowadays are getting outrageously over-rated! With the use of social media nowadays, people make tonnes of money out of weddings. Because it has become a competition among friends to be the best, to be the most special, to be the most extra-ordinary, to be the most luxurious, to be the most grand that it loses the meaning why two person should get married in the first place!
It has been a stereotypical thing that every couple should have their wedding pictures taken in the most grandest setting, some flown out of the country just to have their wedding pictures taken in some overseas locations just to tell people that, yeah! I am extra! Never thinking that many couples 5 years down the road will tell you, these pictures are eventually useless and the big bulky albums are now a white elephant in their premises! Yet what we see is not the future, IT IS NOW! What are we going to tell our friends! Because its been expected of every couple! Irregardless if you have money or not! It is a must! Try that for instant the first moment that you announce that you are getting married people do not say congratulations firsthand, instead the question that will come out right after is "When are you taking your wedding pictures?"
And it is somewhat Hollywood! That every bride should look size 2! What if those who doesn't? Too bad then.. Face the wrath! Now you are telling me why am I so pressured! I am going to be swept into the "culture" - have my pictures taken on Friday and I am nowhere near 2! More to like a 5 (If there is any!) This is going to be bad and I am going to ask the photographer to take my pictures from my good side (Just like Mariah Carey!)
Then there was the reception! Even ROM nowadays, people are willing to pay freaking MYR500 just to get the registrar to come out and officiate their wedding like some kind of CHRISTIAN wedding, coz it looks cultured! Like somewhat Beyonce - Jay-Z! Its really bemusing to be caught in the who is better, who is more expensive, who is slimmer wedding culture!
For me?!!? Easier said then done! I am just going to enjoy myself and let people say "Why the bride is so fat" All I am going to answer is "WHY YOU CARE??!!??"
Fingers cross... Kudos! I love you hubby!
