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?

Blog Face-Lift

In case you hadn't noticed, this poor little blog has gotten a much needed face-lift! Thanks to http://www.shabbyblogs.com/ for the fabulous background and other elements. 

So what do you think? Should I leave it, go back to the way it was, or scrap this and find a different layout?

Wedding Abbreviations PSA

We interrupt this Wedding Blog to tackle an issue that everyone is afraid to talk about, Wedding Abbreviations. We all know it's there, and we all ignore it. How are people who are new to this blogging world supposed to know what you're talking about when you discuss STDs, BMs, OOTs, GMs, BP, MIL, or any of the other million and a half abbreviations we in this wedding world use? Well, as the Fishie Bride, I've decided it's my job to educate the masses. So, for your viewing pleasure I've put together a list of common wedding-related abbreviations which I and other wedding bloggers use and abuse without giving thought to the consequences to our family, friends, and loved ones.
