These Are The 11 Summer Weddings You’ll Be Invited To

Weddings are joyous events, filled with love and good times, for the bride and groom, that is. As for us, the guests, they are a source of endless suffering. In the summer, weddings seem to happen every other day, and you are bound to encounter each of these weddings at least once.

1. The day3a wedding

You’ve never actually met either parts of the couple, nor do you have any idea what they look like, but you’ve been invited because you happened to belong to the same day3a. Your parents force you to go, and you’ll at least get free food and drinks, but it will never not be awkward to congratulate people you had never knew existed.

2. The “cool” wedding

This wedding is not like a regular wedding, it’s a cool wedding. Don’t get excited though, everything will be exactly the same, but the bride is wearing converse, the zaffe is Brazilian themed for some reason, and the invitations were in English.

3. The childhood friend’s wedding

You haven’t kept in touch, so there’s really no reason for you to be there, but you’re invited to this wedding nonetheless. I use the word wedding, but it really is more of a high school reunion with a fancy dress code. Remember all the people you hated while growing up? Well, after this wedding, you definitely will.

4. The fancy wedding

You have no idea how you are even allowed into this venue, but you’ve somehow been invited to the equivalent of Shahrazad’s wedding. Assi Hellani AND Najwa Karam are here, the waiters are basically acrobat dancers hanging from the sky and serving you your dinner. These people have a lot of money, and they want every single guest to know about it. Just hope their souvenirs are a couple hundred bucks.

5. The awkward buffet wedding

You have been standing in this buffet line for what feels like forever, only to be forced into a conversation with your aunt that seems to have been going on for at least 3 hours. When you finally make it to the food, all that’s left will always be the riz bla7em. Just go home and order some Barbar.

6. The dry wedding

Nothing is more disappointing than a dry wedding. What are you supposed to do? Be happy for the newlyweds? Ugh.

7. The destination wedding

Want to spend money so you can see another couple be overjoyed while you visit a new country for a literal two days and see nothing there? Then this wedding is for you!

8. The Cyprus civil wedding

This is a destination wedding with a spin, because this couple is #rebellious and decided to forego religion and their parent’s approval so they can have a civil marriage. It’s actually quite admirable.

9. The religious wedding

This is the polar opposite of the civil wedding, it’s just a religious ceremony that’s either an awkward kateb kteb or an exchange of vows at a church. And then you leave, no food, no drinks, no music.

10. The rave wedding

When two party animals fall in love, what you get is this wedding. I don’t know how they convinced their parents to pay for what is honestly a rave, but here you are, avoiding the newlyweds’ twerking aunts.

11. The hot outdoor wedding

Love bugs? Looking to get an awkward tan? Do you just hate being dry and prefer to sweat for 3 hours? Then this is the wedding for you! Why can’t people just get that no matter how many fans they put in a literal field, it’ll stay hot and uncomfortable for everyone involved.
