  1. The choice of Lilies makes this more of a funeral than a wedding. Any imbecile can see that.

  1. What’s wrong with sugared almonds?!
  2. I think strapless dresses are a danger for any woman who is not a humanised version of Barbie herself.
  1. If you think I don’t care about upstaging the Mother of the Groom, think again.
  1. I think ‘Hen-do’s’ are a completely unnecessary vulgarity and if you make me attend I will turn your own children against you.

  1. I wrote your father’s speech… BE WARNED.
