re: What are your worst (best?) bridezilla stories?

I'll never understand why some women put up with other women like that as "friends". frick that.

Never dealt with a bridezilla personally, but a friend that got married right after we graduated HS had a psycho MIL that, even though she wasn't paying a dime for it, wanted everything her way. She never had a "real wedding" herself and tried to live vicariously through her son's wedding. It was miserable. She even went behind the bride's back to try to alter the color of the bridesmaid's dresses after they were ordered, attempted to get a cake made at another vendor that was a friend of hers, etc. Just an absolute shitshow.

Also tried to tell the bride that none of her bridesmaids could participate unless they converted to Catholicism. That was the last straw. It's no coincidence that they're still married and 25 years later she's estranged from the couple.

And they banned children from coming. Those two things rubbed me the wrong way to begin with.

Side note, this doesn't bother me at all. Totally up to the bride and groom and don't think this is an unreasonable request if enough notice is given. Not everything has to include everyone's kids.

That said, the bride and groom can't get upset if people turn down an invitation as a result either.

No kids at the wedding is a must.

Yeah, the gal sounds awful, but the no kids thing is incredibly normal. My invitation says “adults only” at the bottom.

Weddings and funerals bring out the best and the worst in people.

I’ve been to few weddings that allowed children as guests—those were definitely lower class. None of the moderate to expensive weddings I’ve attended allowed kids.

I’ve never seen a bride act awful on their wedding day. Too bad there is no rain the Columbus forecast today.

Glad I’m not the only one who spent some time researching. And no, it’s not. I found the company and a video of the bell ringing.

My sister (no pics) is also getting married today in Tennessee and my parents often complained to my wife and me about how she is a micromanager and doesn’t take their advice. She also won’t allow kids except for mine since they’re in the wedding.

This morning i was having breaking with a cousin in college and I told her (also no pics) about how my wedding day was such a blur and that I don’t remember every little detail and neither will she. I told my cousin once she gets engaged and plans wedding to just go with the flow because once it’s over, it won’t even matter.

I know my parents are relieved today has arrived. I don’t think my mom has had a meltdown yet

ETA: Just ran into my Aunt at the hotel who came from the venue where the women are getting dressed. My sister is fine but my mom has had several meltdowns
