I received an invitation to a bridal shower in March, and a 'Save the Date' for a wedding a month later. There's another wedding in June that I've been verbally invited to, but it remains to be seen whether or not I'll receive an invitation.
I'm working the day of the bridal shower so I can get out of that one easily. The weddings, not so much. See, here's the thing: I don't like weddings. I find them incredibly boring. The church part is okay; I mean, that's the only part the matters to me. The actual 'I do' part. But the rest of it, I don't see the point in. This is compounded by the fact that at both of the weddings I may or may not be invited to, everyone I know is in the bridal party.
It's not even a lack of interest in everyone's weddings but my own. Though I am a voluntary spinster, I imagine my own wedding to be a trip to a courthouse and then lunch for the approximate five people involved. I have far too much of a nervous personality to deal with catering, centerpieces, MOBs, FOBs, SOBs, and the like.
Luckily, I only know two people who are at the wedded bliss state, though I am dreading the venture into my late 20s. I will be sure to receive more wedding invitations in the future.
I just keep telling myself I'm saving them money.
