Oh the bride thing! I've never known anyone to do this but one of the younger staff at my son's school added me on social media and her stuff is hilarious - she got engaged in 2022, wedding is this year and on Christmas day she had a t-shirt saying "last Christmas as a Miss" and a jumper saying "future Mrs X" - she posted the bride story going on about 2024 brides and is always going on about the wedding, for a year and a half now. Don't know what she'll do when she's married!
But then we decided to get married so got engaged and married a few months later, none of the dress drama, no hen trip to Ibiza for a week, barely even had a beauty appointment, so I'm really not the target kind of person for this stuff!
