- welcome to a very special screening of "my big fat greek wedding 2" presented by smartgirls and girls on film. - yay! hi, everybody!(everyone laughs) - amy, for those you that don't know,
Wedding Party Edicate, is an etiquette expert for the 21st century, which is kind of a big deal. - i think we have a few questions,
and these were sourced socially, about how to behave at a wedding. - when is it okay say no to outlandish wedding day requirements, and bridesmaids' requests? - the general answer is, sorry, gals, you can't. it's not your day. when it is your day, youcan make those requests.
i think if it getsastronomically expensive and it's out of your range, then that's something you can chat with the bride about separately. um, but definitely no bridesmaid coups against the requests of the bride because it's her special day. - if you have to flysomewhere for a wedding, do you still have to buy a present?
- i kind of think that's sort of age- and income-dependent. i say, under 25, ifyou're flying somewhere, you're good. just let your friend know, hey, i'm flying to your wedding, and i wish you the best! and get them a card. i think anything that's breaking your bank
shouldn't be your biggest concern. you should be there for your friend and that should be gift enough. - so how do you verykindly tell your friend that their children arenot invited to the wedding. - we kindly request nochildren at this wedding. - is that okay to say?- [amy] oh, totally okay. - oh.- [amy] yeah. you have to say it pretty firm
because i've definitely had friends who didn't put it on the invite, and then it became thisawkward conversation you have to have one on one with a friend and it's sort of like saying, i don't want your kid there. and that, like, feels weird.- [miri] yeah. - you know? so you put it on the invite. - i'm 23.
let's just pretend. - we could, we could believe that. - i'm 23. how much money should i spend on a college friend's registry if i give a check and a card? or is a card enough? this kinda speaks to our earlier question but maybe in a more specific way. - yeah, so maybe thereare two questions here.
first of all, you're 23. how much money should you spend? nothing outside of your budget. i actually used to do a thing, and maybe this is not good manners, but i would find the mostridiculous thing on the registry and get them that because(everyone laughs) you put it on there! so i got one of my friends, like,
sushi rolling paper and i was like, haha, joke's on you.- [miri] that sounds amazing. i would--- [amy] have they ever used them, who knows?- [miri] right. - and let them know, ifthey're really your friends, they know your circumstances, and they're not going to judge you. - what happens if you don't wanna take the name when it comes to,
i now present, mr. and mrs... - that is such a good question. - what do you do? - and especially, like now,there are gay weddings now, and it's important tothink about that too. i actually got officiated last year and married two of my gay friends. - [alicia] that's so cool.- and i said, i now present husbands,
garrett and danny. so i just went with first name. - thank you guys so muchfor coming out tonight. we are so looking forward to the rest of audiencesgetting to see this film on friday the 25th. thank you so much! - thanks, guys!- woo-hoo! - enjoy!
