Nobody NEEDS Someone Telling Them Their Perfect Wedding Is A Tacky Idea

So there is some new show about weddings that I can't even be botered to remember the name of, but the ads are on CONSTANTLY, and it is all singing about how every bride needs David by her side. And the ads show this guy (presumably David) waving his arms and turning various brides and bridesmaids into nicer looking brides and bridesmaids. He changes Goth Bride and Country Bride and Ugly bridesmaids, and Cutesty Bridesmaids, etc, into much nicer and more bridal magaziney brides and bridesmaids. And in general, I don't object to this. After all, the world can use a whole lot less tacky in it. But honestly, who really cares what these women want to wear at their wedding? if they want to dress up like pirates or put their wedding party into hideous froofy lemon yello gowns, how does that affect me? Shouldn't they be allowed to have the wedding they want, even if it conflicts with the typical Today Show idea of wedding perfection? Basically what notice is that he is making everyone look the same -and that's no good. It's not like they are trying to fix how people dress every day - which is just publc service because we have to look at those people when they are out and about (and at Walmart- seriously what is up with that place?). A wedding is one day - if you want to live it up and do it in a tie-dyed dress and feather hair piece, whatever. Just don't dress that way everyday or we'll have to turn you in to What Not To Wear.
