Idk if there's an actual age limit, but from my experience it was almost always really young couples, perpetual bride eager to point out their ring and new last name everywhere; and husbands never matching that level of "enthusiasm" for wifey. And then, divorced before 27 🙃
I don’t think it has as much to do with just being young brides as it can be a red flag that someone is more excited about being married and having a wedding than the person they are marrying. So then they do end up divorced because they got married for the wrong reasons.
Exactly. Too funny. Also, ensemble comedy is a totally different form to stand-up or single-performer skits. It’s like having a friend whose band is killing it and having a successful tour and saying they should really audition for the orchestra.
Also, babies, SNL relies on 2 skills: *ensemble* sketch comedy and celebrity impersonation (very different from the “types” she does - celeb impersonation is less commentary and more vocal & facial control). Laura is absolutely fantastic, but SNL scouts at improv venues & some standup. The guys who make the digital content are not full cast & let’s be honest, 2 are nepo babies with tremendous connections. SNL was never meant to be the Super Bowl of comedy, plenty of greats washed out or were never even considered, because it’s a very specific type of comedy. There used to be more shows like that, so it made more sense that it was just a sketch show, not some kind of competitive triumph. Again, this gal is brilliant (I honestly just thought to myself, “I’ve only seen one other person act with her, her mom 😂😂😂yeah I know it’s her), but she’s a one woman show kinda comedian!
In Dutch, that problem does not réally exist. You are a vrouw (a woman) and then an bruid for a day (a bride) and then you are zijn vrouw (his woman.) Same goes voor man, bruidegom, haar man. Or "zijn man" and "haar vrouw" if it is a gay couple
@@Widdekuu91 Interesting. I think it's similar in German. In English, "wife" actually used to mean woman. It's where we get words like midwife from (midwife = "with-woman")
@@jpainter7147 Yeah and in (oldfashioned) German they use the word Weib, which I believe now has a negative connotation. Not sure, but in Dutch it does. In Dutch, "wijf" (pronounced as wife) means old hag, only in the far east (Twente) they can say 'wief' in their dialect without it being offensive. And wijffie (pronounced as wifey) can be nice for a girlfriend (same energy as silly), but is very derogative to a random woman. Also, funfact, the Germanic word Werrah meant chaos and war and random stress or fights and disarray. The English said; 'Ah, Werrah..sounds like war. We will use the word war for fights' and the Dutch went; 'Ah, disarray and chaos, we use the word war for that." So a Dutch person that is 'in the war' is confused. War in Dutch is oorlog. Which, if you say it in German, means earhole. Ha-ha, languages.
@@Widdekuu91 you are right about 'Weib', it's oldfashioned and now kind of negative. But a friend of mine calls his wife 'Weib' for fun. 😉 For married people there is the word 'Eheleute', the woman is 'Ehefrau' and the man 'Ehemann'. But you can also drop 'Ehe' and just say his/her 'Mann' or 'Frau' (like in Dutch). An oldfashioned word would be 'Gatte' and 'Gattin'.
I work with someone who was exactly like this after she got married. She brought her wedding album in to work EVERY TIME anyone else at work got married to compare wedding photos and then proceeded to steal every new bride's thunder by loudly reminiscing about her wedding. She's divorced now.
I keep waiting for her mother to pop up behind her in the black turtleneck ready to go on the hike. (Forgetting momentarily that she portrays her mother.) 😂
I love it! 😂 Now you need to have the photo album casually on the table and mention that they can flip through it if they want. Then open it and force your guest to look at all your wedding photos whether they want to or not. No one will feel awkward or uncomfortable at all. 😂
Fr!! It's the overly intim4te pics while kissing or laying on a surface for me (my bf's parents have had some pics taken on their bed...i was like "🤨i feel like i shouldn't be seeing this"). To be clear, it's just a joke, i don't want to make it weird but those pics made me indeed a bit uneasy lmao
@@typicalgothgf MY AUNT HAS THOSE it's so disturbing. There was a picture of her in some type of lingerie and him lying on a bed, it was a really dramatic picture closeup and dark so you couldn't see the details but i was like GIRLL
I got married at a courthouse and my husband dropped me off at the front cause it was POURING out and I was in my dress. (I had an umbrella but still) I’m waiting for him in the foyer area and this woman comes by and just shrieks with delight “ahhhhhhhh you’re a bride!” And I’m like “YES! I am!” It really is like being a lil celebrity for a day. After the wedding we went to lunch with our 10 guests and everyone was so happy to see us.
Yea but like. Once the wedding is over, you don't need to keep talking about it YEARS after any moment you get lol. Like at some point people just don't wanna keep hearing about anymore. You gotta read the room, my friend
Me too! The performance was to a Meatloaf song at their reception. "It was long ago, and it was far away, and it was so much better than it is today." ... It turned out to be a prophecy. 😂
Some of us had parents that forced us to preform at our wedding and it did not go well and still us to this day… (It was their stipulation to pay for it)
I waited until everyone left and played one of our songs for my husband. No need to make that a moment for everyone; the wedding itself was a testament to the relationship. Three years later and he still has me sing and/or play him to sleep. ☺️
Ok wait, that dress is actually so beautiful, really flattering and unique in an understated way and it creates such a harmonious vibe where laura is the star. I love that the dress is beautiful itself but it's there to compliment her. I am sure it was a very pretty wedding ❤😊
And then, if you were foolish enough to go to her house because she promised it would be a very chill evening with lots of friends, she’ll corner you and put on the wedding video which is four hours long
Haha I means if honestly kinda cute how excited they are about their marriage after so long. At least it’s better than those who seem to hate everything about it and thier partner and are low-key regretting it.
I'm getting that she got married just for the party and the status. Hence her wanting to perpetually feel like a fiance and bride, and is not handling well how mundane everything is now that it's over 😅
I wish it did imply a happy marriage but this kind of behaviour is typically a one-sided overcompensation to hide their less than stellar marriage. It’s often a sign they’re not receiving any emotional validation from their spouse and are trying to use other people as a source of validation/an ego boost instead. From my own experiences if you get annoyed with someone like this for derailing EVERY conversation topic by forcibly centring it around their marital status, they’ll accuse you of being bitterly jealous (even if you’re also married 🤷♀️ ) as just the mere idea of someone being jealous of them is the ultimate form of validation and they’re intentionally trying to provoke people to be jealous for that reason… even tho all anyone ever feels is annoyance 😵💫 Unfortunately for one particular person I knew who behaved exactly like the example in this video, her husband was caught cheating on her when she was pregnant with their first child, she has been so delulu about him that no one was shocked about this happening but her. The sincerely happily married couples I know never flaunt their relationships in this fashion, they obtain satisfaction from within their relationship so don’t need to seek external validation.
I HAD a friend like this. She was one of my bridesmaids unfortunately (she had gotten married a year before me) and constantly brought up and compared her wedding to mine throughout my entire wedding/bachelorette experience 😂 She wasn’t done with being “the bride” yet I suppose 🙈It was somewhat insufferable 😅
You are not so young to be wearing that dress, Laura. You are bent over like the old man and people are seeing in your chest, is that what you want? Oh Laura! Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy also had the small bust in a small dress! Yes, this is exciting now!
I bet German Mother (the character) would hate it and say it looks like underwear or a nightee 😂 I think it's really cute though! I also went for a different type of dress instead of the stereotype puffy pavlova-looking things 😂 Great character here as always! 👏🤩
Everyone I've ever talked to about their traditional weddings has all been like "UGH so stressful and expensive, I'm glad we're done with it!!" And I'm just like ????? Why did you do it that way then????? I don't understand modern wedding culture.
"remember when I performed for everybody" omg this perfectly encapsulates all of the reasons why I was terrified of weddings and never had one for myself
The bit about getting a nonwedding dress so she could wear it again hit me like a personal attack. I legitimately am choosing to look at bridesmaid style dresses, cuz I hate wearing white, will dance my feet off at the reception…and want to be able to wear it again for anniversaries and the like.
Let’s let people be happy. My dad died one year ago and when I’m sad about it and someone asks, I say “My dad died one year ago.” I will always be sad about my dad dying. I will always miss him. His death is an event which will forever affect my emotions. When I get married, I hope that it is an event that will bring me happiness as long as I live. Sure, the marriage will bring me continued happiness, but I hope the wedding does too, because it would be disappointing if my dad’s death and his absence could make me forever sad, but my wedding and marriage couldn’t make me forever happy. The way I see things - life is full of so much sadness. We eventually lose everyone we love and every time it happens, it breaks us a little. I think happiness can be harder to find sometimes and that is why I think we need to celebrate everything we gain in those wonderful life-changing moments the same way we mourn everything we lose in those heart-breaking life changing moments.
@@mrscremertoyou yeah. that's right. the moment an individual makes a joke, no one else can make any other side comment in relation to the joke. that's against the law. obviously. laughing AND acknowledging grains of truth? impossible. brief contemplation not allowed. 🙃
You're right, let's let people be happy. But also, let's understand that other people won't forever have the energy to share (eventually: pretend to share) our feelings about our happy events from yesteryear. Which weren't their happy events. They were only ever happy *for us* , right from the start. And it's too much to expect such happiness on other people's behalf to be as long-lasting as our own happiness hopefully will be. If you will forever get something out of flicking through your wedding album - great! if thinking back to your wedding will forever put a smile on your face - fantastic, more power to you! ❤️ People don't need to stop being happy, they just need to stop centring these feelings in every conversation with their friends, and expect their friends to get all excited about it too. I'm sorry about your dad. I hope you'll be able to remember him with happiness one day, at least some of the time.
😂 I worked with a woman like this. I referred to her time line as BM and AM. Every question you’d ask would be answered with “well that was before my wedding so…” or “that was after my wedding …”
I have this friend who keeps showing random people we meet when we're out for dinner or drinks the videos and pictures of her wedding. Needless to say, those people never ask her to show them any videos or pictures.I should also mention that her wedding took place in 2019😅.
Good gracious. Married in 1994, coming up on 30 years. Tonight I am in my recliner in front of a huge framed photo of me in my wedding dress…thanks Mama. She guilted me in to taking it when they moved. So after this ended I was looking up laughing and there it was staring down at me. That’s a cute maxi. 😂😂😂😂
@@KJones-qs7ju I was amused by her skit and then realized I’ve been looking at the dress daily for at least the last 15 years. I need to just get rid of it. It is huge.
I missed the part in the beginning when she said "hike" UHM EXCUSE ME MA'AM?! Everything else, I was on your side LOL but outdoor adventures in any dress....... 😣☠️😂
I was like "Oh yeah, August. Somewhat understandable since she would have just been married the previous month" and then she said "...Of 2018". Girl what 😂
2 years of "I'm getting married" followed by 2 years of "i am married". I hope I'm gonna hear the 2years "I'm devorcing" 😂😂😂🎉 got a friend likr that. 40 years old body, 16years in her mind.
Ok but in reality if she’s still this excited and they got married in 2018 it shows how much she loves him.. I know this is a joke but.. idk. wasn’t funny I guess.
1) great dress! 2) this is me, in my head. To be fair, I never got married until I was 45😂… worth the wait and the wedding was super chill/camping with tacos for the feast
My friend’s sister just got married and my friend is planning a party for his wife so he put us all on a WhatsApp group. The sister can’t make it but instead of saying “we can’t make it” she said “The Smiths* can’t make it”. Like being married is her entire personality and it’s cringe. *Smith isn’t their real surname, just using it as an example.
Wait a sec, did Laura get married and this is her way of telling everyone? Note: If she's already married, I didn't know. I'm a fairly new follower. ☺️
Jesus. My dress was 60 bucks and i had 14 people. To much weight is given to the wedding. I got sick for years and he stayed. I think about that more than the wedding
If you are close to someone shouldn't you be happy for them if they are this excited? Must we make fun of everyone now? Can't you just listen to your friend brag for a moment? It will cost you nothing. And if you are not close to them just practice assertiveness and say what you want to say, without making fun of them. Simple "hey, good for you, but I gotta go" will do.
Long ago I sang in a band that occasionally played for wedding receptions. And I can truly say that weddings were my worst nightmare. I'm not sure who was worse...the bride or her mother. Hmmm.
