The wedding industry has made engagements last too long
Over the last 50 years people have become so over the top with weddings. I know they have always been extravagant but throughout history it was either something the community played a huge role in and your efforts somewhat handled, or you had a humble wedding at home. Only if you were rich did you pick the perfect color scheme and buy all new table cloths and 50 different rentals…
But the whole process of people planning weddings that cost half of what they make in a year stretches the process so long. The venue, the perfect new dress, the musicians, the catering, the bar, the decorations. If you got engaged today, you’d probably be getting married in the last half of 2028. That’s nearly 3 years of you saying my fiance my fiance my fiance
If you got engaged on this day in 1860, you’d be getting married this fall in your front yard under a pretty tree in the nicest clothes you own. Maybe some local people collected flowers for you.
That seems like rage bait lowkey you’re engaged then you sit in the waiting room for 2.5 years so that you can get married in some old library with Italian catering you put on the credit card
