Dear brides, I promise we’re not jealous. We’re just broke by the time we make it to the wedding! Now can you imagine doing this 5 times in one summer?!
Tarek, The investment is the 100$ Wedding list …and now that I God Married … I am Paying back all my wedding list that i got …
Sareen … good luck finding a 200$ dress.
On other note… a SINGLE guy’s wedding invitation consist on:
- Getting a new Tie (50-60$)
- Having a Haircut (15$)
Voila …
Excuse me, but what planet do you live on Dory? You actually buy a new tie for a wedding? My white silk tie has already married Rim, Najah, Fadi, Christelle, Janine, Chole, Walid, etc, etc….
I think it’s kind of silly that people are always wearing very different things at different weddings! Who cares if you wear the same dress over and over, or the same shirt or tie or whatever. I think Lebanon in particular is just too judgemental! Wear what you want, and be comfortable. Who cares what people thinks!!!? Who cares if people stare? I don’t think anyone would look less pretty or handsome at a wedding for doing so.
That’s the great part about doing things Scottish-style (and being male)—one good kilt and a prince charlie, and you’re good to go for essentailly any special event. Wedding, funeral, formal gala—it works everywhere! Heck, you even wear the same outfit when you get married yourself—don’t even need to rent a tux.
Only thing you need to do is get the shirt cleaned now and then.
This comic is absolutely hilarious. I secretly agree… or, I thought I secretly agreed with you. I recently got an invitation to be in a friend’s wedding, and the invitation came with several apology notes.
So, I guess I’m not so secret about my feelings about wedding costs.
Also, great art in this! I love the different expressions
.
On the plus side, you get to recup your “investment” during your own wedding, so 3a2belik Sareen (cough, ahem!)….
Haha thank you Tarek. 3a2belak to you as well!

No kidding. One good tie will get you through half a lifetime’s worth of special events. Why on earth would you need to buy a new one.
I agree with Dory, us girls are always on the losing side. We’re “investing” only a $100!
Dory. They hate us enough. No need to mention that a tie can work for multiple weddings so is a haircut.
that’s 1 wedding … how about having 7 between July and August …. ???? I have to take a personal loan
Don’t forget different dresses/suits so you don’t get tagged in the same clothes on facebook.
I remember the good old days before Facebook! Where one dress can serve you 3 weddings easily!

Add to it the shoes, bag and accessories!s
Add to it the flight ticket when you have to fly from the Gulf for the wedding
IF pretense was NOT on display all the above will not be needed…
And the عقبالك تانت starts getting tedious too!
I’m sorry to not reference the joke itself, but that expression in panel two is simply priceless and gave me quite a grin!
I used to enjoy weddings because it was an excuse to drink and have a good time. Then I was asked to be an usher….
