Wedding Bell Blues
Vogue wrote about the post-wedding blues—and we wanted to hear From The People. We asked, you answered, and now we’re weighing in.
What did you miss more?
Cake tasting vs. dress shopping
Happy to see this is very close to a tie, because I couldn’t choose between them. As the picture implies—this is the ideal Marie Antoinette day. I want to try on a Danielle Frankel dress in front of an audience and then eat 10 different cakes
Which was more fun?
Bachelorette party vs. reception after party
It’s no secret—I hate bachelorette parties, every time I’m dragged to Nashville I think about putting an Amber Alert on myself. Post-reception drinks are FUN and you can see who from the singles table is gonna HOOK UP LATER.
Which was more exciting?
Opening presents vs. seeing photos
Okay so if none of you are excited about gifts then why am I still being pointed toward your Amazon registry.
Which sucked more?
Death of childhood vs. mother/son dance
Death of childhood is UNIQLY painful, but not as bad as when your partner walks in the room and says “oh we chose the song, it’s Bruno Mars” fuckin what?? Are you on drugs??
Which was more traumatic?
Seating chart vs. credit card debt
Ohhh the seating chart. We don’t really believe in those because we don’t believe in inviting people who would cause a SCENE at your wedding. You guys need to be more scared of credit card debt.
Which caused you to lose more sleep
DIY projects vs. best man speech
I cant imagine a world where I begin a DIY project and finish it, so I can’t really relate to those who are hot gluing the entire year leading up to their wedding. A tie seems fair.
