What are weddings really about? Finding love? Celebrating love? Family? God? Marriage is hard to define, and the legal definition of marriage is a hot-button issue for all Americans. But if we want to know what weddings are really about we must only look as far as the TV. There we will find “Bridalplasty” — marriage as a publicity stunt.
“Bridalplasty” pits twelve insecure brides against one another to vie for a free dream wedding and some plastic surgery to boot. Each week the girls compete and each winner gets to have one procedure from their plastic surgery wish-list. Lipo one week. Eye job the next. That is, if you’ve got what it takes.
Supposedly the idea is to hand the bride back to her husband with an over-the-top wedding he had no hand in planning and a face quite different than the one he fell in love with.
