Weddings are a celebration of love and commitment between two people, but some traditions can feel outdated and uncomfortable for women. According to a Reddit thread, here are some wedding traditions that women hate:
- References to the groom being ‘tied down’ or the bride being the old ‘ball and chain.’
- The groom removing the garter from the bride with his teeth in front of everyone.
- The bouquet toss and garter toss, which can be uncomfortable for single guests.
- The expectation that the bride’s father will walk her down the aisle and ‘give her away.’
- The white wedding dress symbolizing purity and virginity.
- The expectation that the bride will take the groom’s last name.
It’s important to remember that not all traditions work for everyone, and couples should feel free to create their own traditions that feel meaningful and inclusive to both partners.
