My wedding was in 2013. And there were 20 tables of guests. I remember we spent 120,000 RMB on the tables. We took an event and I changed 4 dresses in a day. It begined from 7am to 9pm.  in the morning, the stylist come in my home to put makeup on me. and my husband come to my home in at 9am, he and his friends. And my friends test them for a lot of games. Maybe some questions about me and she say some command to them like “now you go out and see first people, you must said you are very pretty, I like you”. And my husband lost his patience. He told me “can you help me to stop it?”.
