One Vogue writer makes the case for not getting excited about wedding planning.
Sure, I’ve googled “is it kosher for someone to bring me salmon tartare during the ketubah signing?” but it seems that, unlike other more established social conventions like upholding table manners or respecting elders, wedding etiquette walks down a more nebulous aisle.
With a full-time job and a cat to annoy daily, there’s little return on investment in learning an entirely new language that I’ll forget once we saunter down the aisle like prom king and queen. I’ve let friends and family members make decisions about my big day, and not because I’m intentionally trying to honor them in any meaningful way .
This isn’t to say that women who obsess over specific wedding details don’t care about the bigger picture, too. I envy those who are able to execute specific and sophisticated creative visions, with leftover energy to expend on the hora. As a testament to how much of a “Bridechilla” I am, in back seat planning my wedding, I see how Bridezillas have been unfairly dealt a bad reputation.
That’s why when my best friend ties the knot, or when my sister says yes, I won’t be able to give their frantic texts definitive answers about what their color scheme should entail. What I can do is be the friend who makes sure they stay hydrated during the reception and talks to them about how much fun it is to be deeply in love with your new husband.
