When it comes to etiquette, manners and overall good behavior, even celebrities need help navigating the rough waters of stardom! It’s a good thing Countess LuAnn de Lesseps of the Real Housewives of New York is joining forces with OK! to school them on the right thing to do! In a rough situation, we just ask, “What Would the Countess Do?” This week the Countess discusses surviving wedding season unscathed and learning the reality TV ropes.
As wedding season is in full swing -- any advice for celebrity couples planning big weddings? How can brides avoid becoming Bridezillas?
Celebrity couples planning big weddings need to send a “save the date” at least three months in advance of the big day so that their friends can put the date on their schedules and make travel plans. Since celebs have larger budgets and bigger expectations for their weddings, it’s very important that they are courteous to everyone working on their behalf. Celeb brides who remain gracious throughout their wedding planning will never be considered bridezillas.

Kim Kardashian is newly-engaged to Kris Humphries. Any advice for him on inviting the camera crews into his life and their budding romance?
I made a choice to star in the Real Housewives of New York City but my family and friends can always say no to appearing in a scene with me. Kim Kardashian’s new fiancée, Kris Humphries should have the same option to opt out of filming if he’s uncomfortable letting the cameras into his life and his romance. If he does decide to let the film roll, he needs to have a good sense of humor when viewing the finished product!
Tip: If you marry a reality star, you should expect to be on reality television!
