    What better way to waste a Sunday morning than by watching reruns of "Four Weddings"?! I kid...a little....FH and I getting to wedding stuff soon.

    I know it's totally high-school-Mean Girl-ish of me, but I am pleased when the mean, snotty, judgemental brides lose on "Four Weddings". Now, I know it's a contest/competition, so yes, there is an element of judging, but you know the brides who are just major brats. Like "I didn't like Suzy-Q's wedding because the napkin rings were lame." or "I didn't like Mary's wedding because it was weird they served carrot cake."

    Cracks me up every time!

    I always LOL when the brides are shown clearly having an AWESOME time at a wedding and then in the interview they're like, "I give this wedding a five." Bitch please, you were up on that dance floor and swooning over your steak and gobbling up treats at the dessert bar and we all saw it! The girls were much more generous in the first few episodes; they'd hand out 9's with no problems. Then they strategized I guess, and realized it helped their chances to lowball. LOL.

    @ohheavenlyday: I so hate that to LOL. I mean really how do you give someones wedding a less than 5?? to me thats just rude... when you consider 5 average. I haven't seen anything on there that warrents a low ball score of 3 or 4 like i've seen some of these chicks give.

    And I love it when the one who spent the most is convinced shes gonna win and then loses. Umm sorry having 20,000 stations or 50 hor'ds passed around too me doesn't make a wedding. Especially when there is no warmth or emotion.

    I actually think this show is so sad! I hate watching them judge other weddings. I feel like the people getting married are just so happy and having such a good time, I think it detracts from that to be judged! Like this one episode I watched of two 18 year olds getting married? They judged the bride for wearing converse, when if that's her thing I think it's cool. And they laughed because they had a milk and cookie bar, and instead of a champagne toast they had milk. I thought it was cute and, I mean, otherwise they would have sparkling cider, right? And of course it's low budget, jeez!

    I don't know. I've found that I just overall dislike wedding shows. Nothing against people who like them, I just don't!

    @Birdie Love: This made me laugh so hard though. The ones I've watched, this is sooo truee.

    I hate that show, although I watch it all the time. I just feel really upset watching these women spend thousands and thousands of dollars on their wedding, only to "Not have money for a honeymoon, feel bad for me"

    I only wish that they balanced the weddings more. It's not fair to compare an $80,000 wedding to a $10,000 wedding. Still, once in a while the cheapest wedding will win and it's sort of a moment of victory for all of us super budget brides. My FI always watches it from the mans point of view, and one time, when one of the brides was being particularly catty he said "I am so glad you are not like that! If they win, I think her husband should cash in the vacation and pay for a divorce attorney instead."

    I hate how sucked in I get with that show. What drives me crazy is when they say something along the lines of, "I gave her a 5 because her (insert wedding-related item) wasn't MY taste." Oh? I was pretty sure that wasn't YOUR wedding. The point is - did it work for that person based on who they are and did it work for the ceremony and was everyone happy? Especially when they say something along the lines of, "The dress wasn't my taste." Ok. Well, you aren't wearing it. Does it work for the bride who IS wearing it? I get that it's a competition, but it's also a happy occassion. Stop being so bratty.

    Blah! It's so addicting. :)

    @Leahhh: I remember that episode. It was horrible. She's 18, she's not going to have liquor. And seriously, who doesn't love cookies and milk?! If I remember right her church helped her pay for some things? But the other brides complained about everything, even the color of cake!

    I havent' seen 'Four Weddings' in a while. I always seem to miss it. But I too always give a little cheer when the snotty girls lose.

    @Birdie Love:Bahahahaha.

    I just wish there were categories. Like brides that spend between 10,000-20,000 and then 20,000-30,000, 30,000-40,000 ect ect ect. That way good food and sweet DIY details would go further. It's just like, well... duh, her $170,000 wedding was amazing. Better than the two 20,000 and the 40,000... And she gets a free honeymoon? I don't know. But, heh, I do like the show. Smile

    I totally agree!  I actually did a casting interview a couple of weeks ago for Four Weddings, and I'm still waiting to hear if we'll be on it...They haven't finished selecting all of the May brides.  If I do get on it (fingers crossed!) I am going to be the opposite of bitchy!  

    How are those girls okay with showing their asses on national tv?  Aren't they SO embarassed that they look like total beeotches to everyone?  I would DIE if I looked like that on tv!

    I watched the one today.  The one bride would not go and dance because there wasn't any Mimosas for the breakfast reception.  "I'm not a morning person".  Just shut up and dance.  Everyone else was having fun.  You can go to the bar when its over!!!

    I only watched one episode, a LONG time ago.  I absolutely hated it, and I love wedding shows.  I wanted to fly out and bitch slap some people.

    Hey, my dh and I were doing the same thing this morning. I hate it when they complain about stuff that the bride can't control...kind of reminds me of my wedding.

    "OMG! It's so hot!"

    "I'm a really picky eater so I couldn't eat anything."

    "It's raining, how inconsiderate!!!!!!!!!!!"

    @Leahhh: I really liked the milk (even though I hate milk) and cookie bar! And what I thought was sweet about their wedding is that all their families and friends pulled together to make it a special day.

    @cincity75: That's the bride I referred to as (here's me being a Mean Girl) as "Miss Piggy". She was SO rude at the other weddings!!! She also said that she only liked vanilla creamer for her coffee.  However, sadly, Miss Piggy won that episode.

    The one I caught this morning had the underdog winning and the total bitch coming in dead last.  They're so hyper-critical of everything.  Two of the four were totally disgusted by the 'faces' on the animals they were eating (a roast pig, lobster bisque with a crawfish sticking out of the bowl, etc).  They made SUCH a big deal over it too. 

    And if I hear that the food served at the wedding tasted like "wedding food", I'll punch a pony.  Guess what?  It IS A WEDDING.  The winner had 420 people in attendance, were you really expecting a stunning dinner?  Come on now.

    @KristenGotMarried:I've seen one with a roasted pig, too. The brides were like "She said the roasted pig was a cultural thing. That was really cool that she was able to incorporate so much culture into her wedding. However, I personally found it disgusting and, even though I went back for four deserts, it ruined dinner for me so I give her food a 4."

    I don't understand how they can 'appreciate' something and yet, score it low because one tiny thing wasn't exactly how they would have done it.

    I'm so glad they have to rank things in the other categories to make up for low-scoring each other.

    Seriously..."I thought Jane's wedding was fantastic, it was so her. Her dress was stunning, and I thought her and John's vows to each other were SO touching. The food was incredible and the DJ had the place rocking...BUT because she was going for a "winter wonderland" theme and the cake didn't have snowflakes on it, I'm going to have to give her a 3."

    I have an unhealthy love-hate relationship with that show.

    I love Four Weddings! It's kinda like a situ I'm in, I know someone getting married the same year as me, and our weddings are TOTALLY different! Her's is a flamboyant do, mine is small and simple, she's opting for glitz, I'm opting for feminine, she's going for red, I've gone green. She thinks her wedding will top mine but mine isn't about being big, we have lots of fun ideas crammed into ours..who am I kidding, I sound like one of those brides here!

    Hee hee.  I didn't see this thread the first time around.

    I am thankful for that show.  I'm from northern NJ and a lot of the episodes are in NJ/NY.  I'm very happy to live in Virginia now.  My sister-in-law had a wedding worthy of that show...more food at the cocktail hour than at most people's weddings, over the top lighting...it's so delightfully Jersey, but not my style. 

    I'm sure my vineyard wedding would be slaughtered if it was put up against a Jersey wedding at a wedding factory (a lot of those receptions take place at wedding factories).

     

    I saw an episode this morning where a girl blasted a Hindu bride for not serving meat at her wedding.  Ridiculous!
