And why is it only the bride and groom take a honeymoon?

But seriously now, I want my damn honeymoon. I know brides and grooms do a lot of work to get ready for their weddings, and when I say brides and grooms I really only mean brides, but lets be real honest here; It's everyone else who really does all the shit work. So why don't we get a freaken vacation somewhere after everything is said and done? Okay, I really didn't do that much shit work, I helped decorate for a couple days, ran stupid errands a bunch of times and yadda yadda but I still think I need a vacation. I definitely know my parents need one, so naturally they would take me along. I still am not quite sure what to make of weddings though. On one hand I can see why people have them more than once: You get a huge party focused on you, more gifts than you can ever imagine and then a nice little getaway to top it all off. But on the other hand you have to have about 500 small talk convos with all sorts of randos. I don't know, weddings are just weird, just the whole act of it all. Don't get me wrong, I had a great time at my sister's, it was quite the event. I just feel like it's so much money, and hype, and money, and excitment, and money. And it's all over within less than 24 hrs. Just poof. It's done. It was like Christmas for me, I get really excited all the weeks following up, and then when it's finally here I'm bascially already bummed because I'm like damn, it's gona be gone in just a few hours and then I have to wait another 365 days. But for weddings, I mean, if all goes well you have to wait another 7-10 years to have another, I mean that's the average length of time for the starter marriage these days right? I kid I kid. Okay, I'm rambling now. I also think I might be hungover from this wedding weeekend for about an entire week. Speaking of a hangover, I gotta mention my "maid of honor speech" that crashed and burnt like all wedding speeches do. Next time though, I have to lay down again I'm getting dizzy.
