Wedding season is officially here, and Kim and Grandma Gail are breaking down the etiquette rules everyone is secretly confused about. From destination weddings and expensive bachelorette trips to plus-ones, registries, dress codes, Irish exits, and how much you should really spend on a gift, Grandma shares what has changed and which traditions still matter. Plus, Kim reveals why she is always ready to leave the after-party early, and Grandma admits she once rewore her wedding dress to someone else’s wedding.
