Marriage advice:
"Everyone gathered up for the bouquet toss –
not just the single ladies – because the person
who caught the bouquet got to be the first to
eat. I thought that was a pretty ingenious way
of avoiding the awkwardness of splitting things
up by gender for the bouquet/garter ritual.
That might be a helpful note for people who
have nonbinary family members or friends in
attendance." – SIERRA STEVENS
