THE FUSE

Let’s be honest: the final days before a wedding aren’t all sunshine and roses. While the real joy (read: relief) comes from watching the happy couple ride off into the sunset, guests are often stuck in a collective inhale until that moment. Whether you’re the mother-in-law, the maid of honor, or a plus-one, it’s hard not to imagine everything that could go wrong on someone’s big day. See: a surprise drizzle, a slip down the aisle, or the black sheep uncle indulging in one too many drinks. And if you’re the bride? Between the venue bill, something borrowed, and a checklist longer than your train, you already have enough to worry about.
