People tend to be at their best-worst behaviour at weddings and funerals. These two major life events bring out the best in us. We dress up nicely, and feel more or less obligated to attend the event, even for any far removed half-relatives. Under those nice layers of designer fabrics we come armed with self-centered expectations. Expectations of how it should be in case of weddings, and usually how it should have been in case of funerals. “It” being the life of the deceased, or newly-wed couple. What a way to celebrate the start, or end, of (married) life.
