All these bachelorettes, showers, giant weddings and whatnot are performative bullshit pushed by a very cynical industry with some really great (in the sense of skilled) marketeers with the morals of alley cats.
I will attend a wedding of someone close. I refuse to attend bachelorettes, showers, or weddings of vague acquaintances who only invite me to pump up their numbers for bragging rights in bourgeois circles. If they want to pump up their numbers, let them hire actors and do something good for starving artists at least.
