Proof That The Wedding Industry Has Gone TOO Far!

Or what the E! network calls "Bridalplasty"...

This is a show designed around this insane idea that you must be "perfect" on your wedding day. Including and up to breast implants, tummy tucks, nose jobs, and any other plastic surgery you can think of. 

Now, I'm not a super model by any stretch of the imagination but this has gone a little TOO far. Every woman deserves to be beautiful on their wedding day and I realize there is only so much that make-up and shape wear can fix but where do we draw the line? I watched this show and I thought to myself that all of these women were beautiful and none of them seemed to really NEED the surgery, they didn't seem to have any heart wrenching disfigurements but they were still competing for these surgeries none the less.


Am I wrong here? Have you seen the show, do you feel that it's a sign that our culture has gone too far in it's obsession with perfection?

Questioning Our Date Choice

The first thing people ask when they find out we're getting married? "Oh, when's the date?" I swear, sometimes I debate just having it tattooed on my forehead or something:'I'm getting married 8.20.11...now stop asking!' but that's only when I'm tired and irritated. After that, then the inevitable question "Oh, aren't you a little young? Are you waiting until you finish school?" I've never truly understood why people feel the need to ask those questions but for whatever reason they do, and I feel the need to explain our reasons for setting the date that we did.
