SAVE THE DATE!

An unknown bride sent out a save-the-date announcement that is pretty much the definition of over-the-top. The announcement was leaked to Facebook. Here’s what it said:
“Things to keep in mind before you say yes:
– The wedding will be held in an Asian country (Philippines, Thailand, Vietnam etc) We haven’t decided yet.
– You will need at least two weeks off… one week is too short for how long the flights are.
– Flights range from 10 to 13 hours long, usually costing from $500 to $1100.
– Only 2-3 days for wedding festivities, but the rest of the time is yours to do and go on whatever adventures you like. You will need approximately $4000 to $5000, that includes hotels, food, drink, daily adventures, scooter rentals (* Yeah, scooter rentals is where they really getcha!). Just good to have a safe buffer of money.
– Once we receive everyone’s save-the-dates back we will begin finding a venue. We hope to give you at least 9 months in advance, so if you want to attend start saving your pennies now!
– Think all of this over… I know you all will really love it over there.”
* Crazy Rich Americans.
* “Start saving your pennies now.” Isn’t that adorable?
* I wouldn’t pay $5,000 if they hired Rick Steves as the tour guide.
* You know what a bride traveling to an Asian country is usually called? A honeymoon.
* I don’t know about you, but I love self-centered, controlling idiots telling me what I like and how to spend my money.
