RE: Un-Wed : Unpopular Opinions on Modern Marriages

on the photography stuff, most of the time true :D i seen a lot of them now done before or after the wedding day, less stress, usually does not change the grooms feelings about it. With few exceptions i know, mostly because of love for photography.
On the gifts. I think the idea of gifts some years ago was (at least here) to buy stuff the new couple will need in their new house. So closest relatives were giving stuff like TV, washing machine... But then there were some plates, fans and mixers starting to do rounds on weddings. you just needed to keep track who gave you what so you don't give it back 😂
And as times changed, couples living together before the wedding, people already having stuff for the house, not getting married if you don't have everything, it transitioned to one thing they need for sure, Money.

Huh I hadn't thought of that, but that's a great point about people living together before and already having stuff. Still, I'd like a useful thing rather than money. You can always exchange it if you have it and at least I know they took 5 minutes to think about it.
Photos before or after the day sounds like a really good idea to be honest 🤔
i am still not sure how often are people exchanging stuff here. maybe i just don't shop enough to think about it :D
i generally either suck at thinking about presents or i do great :D i mostly get random ideas of "this would be great for this person" but then i needs to wait for half of a year for the celebration and i don't want to wait half of the year, but then it is weird to show up with nothing, because you gifted something randomly half a year ago :D
photos before and after are less stress but need more effort :D
i am still a proponent of candid (often weird) photos that you will love 10 years later :D
