And they call the wind "bridezilla" -



There are a number of folks getting married on my friends list. This one is for you -

And be warned. This is likely what you'll end up with if anyone makes me wear the dress again. I'm serious.

*dies laughing* That icon reminds me of an old Skid Row song.

Suzi got an Uzi what a beautiful bride
That's where the trouble began
Will there be any objection or a bloody resurrection'
It's only up to Suzanne
A load of ammunition in her hand

wedding dresses have always seemed kind of strange to me--mostly because i find them in extremely poor taste/hideously ugly. it doesn't help that i look bad in white because it just sort of washes out my skin tone and makes me look sickly, but the whole 'blindingly white' look? oy. it all seems to harken back to the notion of whiteness as metaphore for purity aka virginity, so the bride's dress has to be as white as possible... personally, standing up before a bunch of people (including my parents) in any outfit that displays my virginal status seems kind of weird.

Off-whites are better, honestly.

Though it could be worse.

I got out of wearing the traditional Filipino barong tagalog, primarily because all of my groomsmen were Anglo ...

And tall, pale-skinned, geeky tech support guys simply can *not* pull off sheer white shirts, no matter how long they've been your friends. XD

hey, at least it looks good on that fellow ^_^

i am a great fan of off-whites. they don't make me look sickly, and they seem more creative...

*laughs* My soon to be husband is Filipino and will be wearing his barong tagalog along with his brother. Thankfully there is no issue of anglo groomsmen for us...which is really in it's own right all for the good, because I rather like how the shirt looks on Rey. *grins*

Hahaha!!! I feel unenlightened- what is that from?

Oh, and now, I have the song you've referenced in my head.... and they call the wind Mariah.....

This gives new meaning to the term "shotgun wedding." :P

I'm sooo ganking that. For the moments of "I am the bride, back the fuck off Mom!"
