Wedding traditions are evolving as women increasingly question customs that feel outdated or inequitable, while modern dating expectations create tension when practically every first-date location is deemed unacceptable.

• Women want to eliminate bachelor parties due to concerns about alcohol-fueled mistakes
• Many reject the tradition of being "given away" by their fathers, viewing it as treating women as possessions
• Couples increasingly prefer to pay for their own weddings rather than relying on the bride's family
• Traditional vows with wives "submitting" to husbands and the phrase "man and wife" are falling out of favor
• The extensive list of rejected first-date locations (Cheesecake Factory, Applebee's, movies, etc.) leaves few acceptable options
• High financial expectations for first dates create unreasonable pressure when no commitment exists
• Dating should focus on meaningful conversation and compatibility assessment rather than expensive impressions
