I banned political talk at my wedding — these are the extreme ways I’m making sure ugly fights won’t ruin my big day

Franki Priore will be all dressed in white at her wedding this November — and not hyper-focused on whoever just won the White House.
And the native Long Islander hopes the 200 guests to her “six-figure” ceremony will follow suit.
To mitigate an uncivil mess at their nuptials, brides-to-be from New York to California are placing a “no-politics” gag order on the folks coming to see them walk down the aisle.
Priore and hubby-to-be Mike, 34, are set to take the plunge at a luxe New Jersey estate on Nov. 22.
The twosome will become one just over two weeks after Nov. 5 Election Day, when the nation picks a new commander-in-chief between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris after months of mudslinging from supporters on both sides of the aisle — a face-off virtually dividing the country.
And no matter their guests’ political persuasions, Priore told The Post, they will be welcome at the fabulous fête — if they abide by the ground rules.
The killing of Iran’s tyrannical Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei on Saturday in an unprecedented joint military attack by the US and Israel called Operation Epic Fury set off widespread celebrations from Iranians around the world — as President Trump said it would give them their “greatest chance” to “take back the country.” Meanwhile, in Iran, a lack of internet has made it impossible for Iranians to easily communicate daily conditions. Over a period of three days, with limited VPN connection, an eyewitness currently in Tehran — who, for her safety, is concealing her identity — shared her account of life under a country in the midst of battle with The Post’s Natasha Pearlman.
After exactly 120 years, the curtain has fallen on the Theater District institution Barbetta, with the iconic Italian restaurant having served its final course Friday night.
