From bridezillas who want everything to be perfect and then messing up the whole thing to people celebrating long and successful marriages.

The list includes statements that people rarely think of starting from a proposal: have you ever thought that proposing reminds you of begging and that this very important decision of life should not be put forward as a surprise?
