Bad wedding ideas/trends
Have you guys seen this yet? http://elitedaily.com/envision/the-latest-trend-for-bridesmaids-is-to-pull-up-their-dresses-and-show-off-their-butts-photos/645024/
It's been popping up on my FB a lot today.
Would you do it?
What other weird or bad ideas have you seen in weddings lately?

Re: Bad wedding ideas/trends
We are going to a wedding next month that has a mock-tail hour. The bride decided no alcohol during the cocktail hour because some of the groom's family "has issues" with alcohol. Huh? Then it's not a cocktail hour, call it something else... hors d'oeuvre (I had to look that spelling up). But then there's alcohol for dinner and dancing?

We are invited to two weddings this summer and neither is following etiquette, in my opinion. First one we got a STD for and it said no invitation will come, consider this your invitation. No idea if there's dinner, drinks, nothing. WTF
Second is absolutely ridiculous, and we won't go, as it's a three-hour drive and we aren't all that close to the couple. All this I gleaned from the wedding website: wedding is outside, then there will be a break between that and the "dessert and cocktail" reception. It actually said on there that this break would be a perfect time for us to get dinner. There are a few restaurants right by where the reception hall is! With a link to their registry. Also they spelled "dessert" "desert," so maybe there will be no food or drinks at all.
Seriously, what assholes.

I haven't been to any weddings recently. My two close friends are getting married next year. From talking to them so far it sounds like they will be even better hosts then I was. If that's so I'm happy. They learned from me and any mistakes I may have made. I'm certainly keeping my fingers crossed.
As for the trend. I texted them that link and told them I don't love them that much. They were as appalled as I was.
It's one of those things you will look back on and go "what was I thinking".
This is what one friend texted me:
Who wants to flip through their wedding book with kids years later and see their asses? "And her's grandma smith and look my ass and your aunt rose's ass" "Yep your grandma had a nice ass back in the day, here Timmy let me show you!"
And the ass thing is extremely trashy and no one needs to see that. If they were wearing bikini bottoms that said something on the butt or something I could see where someone would think it's a cute idea, however just showing your undies is beyond ridiculous.
