New Jersey and Long Island women may not make for the easiest brides-to-be, but they certainly make for the most wild and entertaining. Think of the cast of the Jersey Shore mixed with those ever-so-sweet women from WEtv’s Bridezillas, and what do you get? The ingredients for VH1’s new reality show My Big Friggin’ Wedding. The show follows five couples – three from New Jersey and two from Long Island – as they prepare for their big day, bringing their Italian families and sharp, in-your-face attitudes along for the ride.
From the same producers who brought you Jersey Shore, it’s no wonder that My Big Friggin’ Wedding looks to be one of those shows that will make you want to slap yourself in the face while watching. Even so, you’ll find yourself tuning in every Monday night for the nonstop petty catfights and loud, robust family dinners. Take, for example, the couple Sandra and Joey. Joey loves his “spoiled rotten daddy’s girl” and Sandra can’t keep her eyes off of her “hot-tempered goomba,” but both have such headstrong, conflicting personalities that it will be a miracle if their wedding day goes off without a hitch. Sandra would like the DJ to play classic wedding party tunes while Joey is more into the electronic, “fist-pumping” sound. While Sandra would like simple, classy wedding invitations, Joey has constructed a bright, promotional flyer announcing their special day.
There are 10 episodes in this season, and it will be interesting to see which couples make it to the end without killing each other first. Either that or drink themselves into a stupor.
Catch My Big Friggin’ Wedding on VH1 on Monday nights at 9 p.m.
