Bridal Blues

Not yours -- your single friends’ blues. Yay! I mean, awwwwwwwww. Yes, we, the brides, are the center of attention, but let’s take a moment (just a moment) to think about our single friends. This is a tough time for them -- they’re losing one of their own.

According to industry research, there are approximately 2.4 million weddings each year. When you're single, you know what that means: a never-ending siege of nuptial nonsense that you are required to:
1. Attend (on your own).
2. Buy a dress for (on your own).
3. Buy an expensive gift for (on your own).
4. Navigate toasts, intrusive questioning by well-meaning relatives and friends, and bouquet-tossing silliness -- on your own.
In short, wedding season is as taxing as it gets. To ensure that you make it through this season in one piece, I've come up with the Single Woman's Wedding Survival Guide. Don't go to a ceremony without it.

Pass this on to your single girlfriends. And give them (non-condescending) hugs. And tell them that if they skip out of your wedding early, the poop’s gonna hit the fan.

Is it better to have been invited and have the option of accepting and rejoicing in a friend's special moment, or not be invited at all? True friends will rejoice for others not wallow for themselves.
