While TikTok is known for its young userbase, many creators are starting early and setting the ground rules for their future wedding ceremonies. The trend which can be tracked under the hashtag #WeddingRules, has accrued over 25 million views.

A common theme seems to be no announcements, long speeches, white clothing, or kids. @Sidneylinder is willing to allow children, but… “Just watch ’em. If a drunk groomsman falls over the top of them, that’s not my problem.” No argument there.

Of course, there are many who are breaking away from traditions, like @katelynrizzo who is “keeping the flowers.”
