Bridezilla=Delusional Bitch Bride from Hell

I really hate that show Bridezillas that comes on WE. It is so crazy how those women behave. I can't believe any guy would want to marry a woman after seeing her behave like a 5 year old by throwing a tantrum in the dress fitting shop, or cursing out a wedding planner. The women on there, or girls really, behave like animals, or someone who just escaped from an insane asylum. They treat their wedding party, fiance, friends, and family like crap during the whole episode; and then magically on their wedding day all is forgiven and they get to ride off into the sunset on a white steed and live happily ever after. *Gabby rolls eyes here*

That show gives young girls the wrong idea about what is the most important part of a wedding ceremony. Most girls and women seem to have this dream (it's more like an illusion) of having a huge, fit for a Queen, "perfect" wedding. That is NOT how it goes. 1.) There is no such thing as the "perfect" anything. 2.) A wedding ceremony is about two people coming together to make a sacred commitment to each other. It is not about "ballin out" and showing off. A wedding day is SUPPOSED to be about a person and their partner being joined together for life, not about having Swarovski crystal center pieces or an ice skating rink in the middle of your reception hall. 3.) People should focus less on that one day and more on their life afterwards.

I wish they had a follow up series with these couples a year or two later so we can see how they're doing. It could be called Bridezilla: How I'm Living Since I Went 40 Grand in Debt. I bet it sucks to wake up the next day after all the excitement and "hooplah" is over and have a mountain of debt with no friends left. The average marriage in the U.S. lasts 4 years. Why would anyone accumulate debt for one day of celebration when the bill has a 63% chance of outliving the marriage?
