The Silliness of Bridal Beauty

What's with the veil? What's with the long train? What's with carrying flowers down a long aisle? Is any of this silly to other people?


I'm gonna wear/do all of the above, but really, what's with it all? Since when is white a good color to wear all over your body? When is the last time you put on a garter or wore jewelry in your hair? What's with these weird traditions?! Full of questions as I'm watching Sex and the City (the movie) when Carrie gets in the car looking like a cream puff cupcake on steroids! What's with the big blue feather in her hair!? Anyway, it just made me think of all the silly wedding garb that we all tolerate and maintain when it really does look so odd and out-of-place. Has anyone else questioned this before?

  1. sing it, sista! i don't really get it either. i think i'm going to nix the veil...and i'd actually love to find a dress without a train. so yeah, i too think these "traditions" are kind of strange and i'm curious why they aren't questioned more often?!?!
