The scenarios around marriage, weddings and being a bride can be a very stressful experience. We often wonder what happened when a loving, caring couple, suddenly become growling, angry beasts as the preparations and stresses of a wedding day approaches. No matter where you come from in our global village, there are rituals and rites that must be observed for anyone getting married. Some come with huge price-tags whilst others are choreographed within an inch of the groom and bride's lives... all add to mounting stress even for such a happy event.
As I thought about Redhead Riter's prompt for this week, I couldn't help but imagine how complicated the bridal process and wedding arrangements are around the world. I also couldn't help but wonder about those bridezillas we watch on TV. How the heck did they get that way? Is being on TV that important that normal, decent people are willing to wreck their reputation and behave like monsters?
I dont know...
The question for this week's Tell The Truth Thursday is:
Did you have a wonderful wedding day? Would you change anything? If you're not married, describe your ideal wedding day.
Honestly, the more I thought about the whole affair of what it takes to get to a wedding and say the "I Do's", the more fascinated I became about the ways they are celebrated and cherished elsewhere. What are the steps leading up to the wedding in your cultural background? What about your family tradition around weddings and gowns? I'd love to hear from you. Meanwhile, I added a few pictures above and below to show a range of brides in their regalia; each more fabulously clad than the other.
