In a Venn diagram of the Olsen twins and French people, t is but one intersection: cigarettes.
On Friday night, the two were wed in an “Intimate Manhattan ceremony,” w, according to Page Six, party decor consisted of “Bowls and bowls filled with cigarettes, and everyone smoked the whole night.”
Page Six quickly moves on to other details about the wedding, as if anything else matters after “Bowls and bowls filled with cigarettes.” Here they are, as sparse and generic as one might expect from the notoriously private Olsen: The reception was held at a “Private residence on 49th Street, between Second and Third avenues”; 50 guests drank cocktails in “a rear garden” before eating dinner inside; and everyone was asked to turn in their cell phones, likely for fear that someone might catch an unflatteringly lit photo of the bowls of cigarettes.
How big were the bowls? How many bowls were t? Were the cigarettes boxed, or merely thrown pseudo-casually into the bowls together, butts akimbo, menthols intermingling with cloves, American Spirits sidling up to Camels, Parliaments soiling Virginia Slims?
“Everyone smoked the whole night” is also something of a disturbing sentence, especially considering the wedding was held indoors and likely went on for many hours.
Though they’ve both found fame, riches, and love, they’ve clearly not forgotten this old-but-relevant proverb: “Life is like a bowl full of cigarettes. Foist it upon your friends at your indoor wedding.”
