Hen-dos, baby showers, gender reveals, Easter baskets/displys, Xmas Eve boxes, tooth fairy etc. etc. have all gone totally OTT and I 100% blame social media and influencers. What used to be impressive events that you would read about in OK magazine, now has every Tom, dick and Harry trying to replicate. Itās mental. Iāve missed a few events recently due to poor health so I have a good excuse and Iām pleased for that because I genuinely wouldnāt have been able to actually afford to go which I would have felt very awkward and embarrassed to admit. One was an abroad hen-do, with a strict outfit/colour scheme for each day and evening and the bridesmaids wanting us guests to cover the brides whole trip (flights, accommodation, drinks, meals & events) followed by the wedding which was also abroad!! Maybe Iām just a party pooper but I think people expect so much now.
