Matrimony Monday (Where Oddly We’re Supposed To Talk Only Of Weddings, Not Of Marriage)

So. According to the endless bridal publicity emails that I find myself a victim of today is Matrimony Monday. Apparently Matrimony Monday is to weddings what Cyber Monday is to Christmas shopping (eye roll). Since, allegedly, 40% of proposals in the United States happen over Christmas/ New Years (I’m not going to say Hanukkah, because Come The H*ll On) today is the day that all of the newly engaged hop on the interwebs to plan their weddings.

So! Newly engaged among us? Yes? Any takers? Hello and welcome. Please come right in and show yourselves around (if you haven’t been hanging around just a little bit already). I know this still looks a bit like my personal wedding blog, but it’s really not anymore. You can read about our sassy, joyful, totally imperfect wedding over here, but really you need to introduce yourselves to the wedding graduates, a group of sassy wise ladies with their best wedding advice. Then there are the real weddings, the endless discussing of the always mock-worthy wedding industry, and Team Practical – the amazing group of women (and a few men) who read this blog. And finally, there is the real meat of the thing: the ongoing discussion about how we’re each shaping modern feminist marriages.

So yes. That is what we are all doing here. Oh, yes, and I’m Meg. I live in San Francisco with my husband, and I’m as mouthy in real life as I am online. Well. Ok. Mouthier.

And to the rest of you, happy Matrimony Monday? Watch yourselves. It’s a little dangerous out there…
