But now let's begin, as we always do, with a snapshot.
When Lisa and Mark decided to tie the knot, they wanted a simple wedding in the local church.
However, Lisa's mother insisted on planning an over-the-top ceremony with golden decorations,
a 12-piece orchestra, and a five-tier cake covered in real diamonds.
This is far too extravagant, Lisa whispered to Mark.
as they watched six white horses pull up to carry them to the reception.
Alright, let's dive into today's vocabulary starting with the adjective OVER THE TOP.
OVER THE TOP.
Three words separated by hyphens.
We have OVER, O-V-E-R, HYPHEN, THE, T-H-E,
HYPHEN, If something is described as over the top then it's too extreme or exaggerated.
