Spring is in the air, peonies are in season, and bank accounts are slowly being drained ... it can mean only one thing—wedding season has arrived! I'm attending a wedding this weekend in Napa and am quite excited for all the festivities—seeing old friends, drinking wine, eating yummy food, hearing the exchanging of vows, crying tears of joy, cutting a rug at 3 a.m. with a bottle of bubbly in my hand, etc. But as the movie "Bridesmaids" so hilariously illustrated, wedding culture—specifically bridesmaid culture—often goes too far. Many pre-wedding celebrations have become more of a bizarre, self-indulgent spectacle and less about rejoicing in true love. And the expectations made of bridesmaids? Well, I have heard some horror stories that make me want to punch a giant cookie. After the jump, eight bachelorette and bridesmaid traditions we'd be glad to see go. Feel free to add your own (or disagree!) in the comments!
