Someone tell these morning show hosts to take it easy! The tackiness with which they have been, of and on, doing programmes on festivities related to marriage ceremonies only exposes the quality and level of the brains behind these projects.

Don’t they realise that while they show a bride and groom taking part in all those (unnecessary) rituals during the programme, the one person that looks more dolled up than the bride is the host herself? They make sure that the anchor of the show is not outshined by her guests. By the way, the dolled-up part often reveals the darker side of the anchor, if you know what I mean.
