“If there is ever one picture your ancestors have of you, that’s the one in your wedding dress,” – this is how a dress designer speaks of her product in this National Public Radio story.
“The birde’s dress signals how wealthy she is,” – continues the narration. “But it can also signal how seriously she is taking this marriage.”
OK now. What is the point of putting on a “signal” dress if the ancestors have no chance to see the photo if it’s not been taken or filmed? Does not hiring a videographer signal a seriousness of intentions for both bride and groom, and also the one of their families?
