It seems that everyone's looking for something to make their wedding "different" or "quirky," and is this part of this? Will Irish-Catholic couples start doing henna because it's "different and exotic," without fully understanding the meaning?
I've seen brides on wedding blogs who had henna or wore saris on their wedding day because they wanted to be "quirky and different." True story.

I'm all about your wedding day being a reflection of the couple, but different for the sake of being different is really dumb.

Ex: totally not culturally specific, but the whole stupid mustache thing (google mustaches and weddings if you should be so lucky as to not know any hipsters who were really into this). Quirky for the sake of quirky. And dumb.
