Betches Brides Betches

- Sociedad y cultura
When a bride accepts a proposal, they’re not expecting to say yes to distress. But wedding planning can be the most stressful time in any relationship — families collide, personalities clash, and wallets empty even before your mother-in-law adds her entire bridge club to the invite list. Good thing Betches Brides is here to help you laugh (cry?) through it all. Each week, stand-up comedians Selena Coppock — the mind behind the @nytvows parody account — and Chelsea White meet to swap stories about their own wedding journeys, while answering listener emails to help you not trip down the aisle. Selena and Chelsea are here for all Betches Brides and newlyweds in need of advice, empathy, and laughter — including themselves.

Bride Guide: Mail Bag Edition
This month's Bride Guide is dedicated to you and your questions. Fallon kicks the episode off with a DM she received from a bride wanting to know how early she can send out invitations to her destination wedding. Is there such a thing as *too* early? Then, she addresses a bride’s anxiety over working with a couple as her photographers, in the event of a fight or break-up, and another bride’s debacle of whether or not to include her dad’s partner in her bridal suite the morning of her wedding.
