Rich People Claim Landmarks Before Commoners Can Buy Tacky Souvenir Magnets
Priyanka Chopra and Meghan Markle are officially making your local banquet hall look like a damp basement with their global venue takeovers.

Look, we get it. Getting married in a boring ballroom with a beige buffet is for people who have to worry about a credit score. But Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas really set the bar way too high when they basically rented out an entire palace in India. Now, if your wedding doesn't require a helicopter landing and a change of local zoning laws, are you even really in love or are you just roommates with a decorative cake?
Princess Diana and Charles started this whole mess by taking over a cathedral bigger than most zip codes, making it impossible for anyone else to get married there without feeling like they’re living in a bargain-bin sequel. It’s all about the 'I Do' factor—as in, 'I do own this historical site until the janitorial staff kicks us out at midnight.'
Then you’ve got Meghan Markle and Prince Harry treating iconic venues like their personal living rooms. At this rate, the next celebrity wedding is going to be held on the tip of the Great Sphinx or inside a hollowed-out volcano. If you isn't blocking thousands of tourists from seeing a World Heritage site just so you can wear a veil the size of a tennis court, you’re doing it wrong.
I’m honestly just waiting for a reality star to try and book the moon. They’ll complain the lighting is too harsh and that the lunar dust ruins their designer heels, but they’ll do it for the grid post. Stay humble, icons.
