Your beloved scientists are back! This week, Jess and Caroline tackle a whopping whatado about a (so-called) bridezilla. They examine the issue from all possible angles with a mix of tough love and genuine empathy. Along the way, these two expound upon wedding dress codes, pine for matching Grinch costumes, and marvel at the tale of a groomzilla. Amidst all the talk of bridesmaid dresses and duties, valuable lessons about giving graciously and the tyranny of expectations are flagged. Caroline also reflects on her real-time wedding planning conundrums, while Jess’s bridal party expertise shines, along with her own brilliant bachelorette party plans.
