I think the bridesmaid that refused to stay in expensive hotel was right. Not everyone earns the same amount of money and the bride seemed to forget it . Like she was sacrificing a person for a bigger picture she created in her mind.

Some resort destinations offer ridiculous discounts for weddings if the bride and groom can get 10 or more people to book under them. I knew someone who did this (also a bridezilla) and with the discount her wedding at this beautiful beach resort cost her and her husband about $2K which is ridiculously cheaper compared to paying the regular price for a venue and catering. So essentially it's a way for bride and grooms to have their guests pay for their wedding.

Couples really need to think about what is convenient for their guests when planning a wedding. My fiancé and I wanted to get married in Disneyworld but we wanted bridesmaids, grooms ladies, and our families to be there. None of us live in Florida so everyone would have had to pay for flights,hotel accommodations,etc because we couldn’t afford to pay their way. I have two nieces that are married with children of their own. Since I know a lot of people take time to plan family vacations to Disneyworld I felt like I would have been forcing them to take their children when they may not have been ready for the trip. So our wedding will be local and I’ll wear cute mouse ears with a veil during our Disney honeymoon ❤️

Rule of thumb: when the bride comes out of the dressing room always ask her opinion first. If she loves it, agree with her. If she's not sure and wants your opinion, always point out the dresses flaws. NEVER point out how the dress "makes your boobs look flat/arms look huge". Focus on the dress, not the bride's body.

Well, I mostly agree with this. Although, I personally would appreciate it if I was told it made a certain part of my body look bigger than it is (sometimes it's hard to tell...but honestly I would probably ask whoever I was with if it made a part of me look bigger than it is). I think in a lot of cases, how you give a critique would depend on 1) your relationship with this person. 2) how receptive this person is to criticism (are they a little sensitive, or are they difficult to offend? Does this person have body issues etc). and 3) How to SAY the critique. The sandwich technique where you say something nice about it, say the critique, and end with something else that's nice about it, is always good and it doesn't make the person your critiquing feel awful about themselves.

I agree with this to some point. I'd like someone to tell me how the dress looks of me. I want to look great in the dress. So tell me that it make my ass look flat or my boobs small so I know, I want to know what you think but say it to me sincerely and not like those bridesmaids who were laughing at her and acting malicious. I don't know if it's me or the fact that Caribbean people are used to this type of thing.

@@Mama_Bear524 yes! I barely want to attend weddings when they’re free… no one wants to have to pay money to attend a wedding. Sure guests will often provide a gift, but that’s more so as a congratulations to the couple not a wedding fee! And yes, while your bridal party does often pick up some expenses, as the hosts, the bride and groom should be trying to mitigate those costs as much as possible, not expecting others to fund their wedding and the fund an extravagant honeymoon or items (houses, cars, vacations, etc.) through gifts/donations at the reception. Yes, a wedding day is a huge day for the bride and groom, but it doesn’t mean it has to be for every person that couple knows, is friends with or related to!

If you’re having it in a destination that people want to go to, people for sure want to pay to attend a wedding. It’s a time where you and all your friends can go on vacation and have fun! I mentioned in another comment that I went to a wedding in Las Vegas. It was one of the best times of my life even though it was expensive as hell. It just has to be understood by the bride and groom that not everyone will be attending. And gifts shouldn’t be expected at destination weddings.

I was invited to a wedding for a friend I have only met in person once. I hung out with her and another friend on Zoom a lot watching movies together during the pandemic. My mom was fired when she got COVID, so things have been tight with my family. I apologized that I could not afford to give a wedding gift at that time. Not only did she tell me that was okay, but she and her groom offered to pay for my flight to get there with no expectation to pay her back. Our other friend had lent me money for the flight, so their offer was not necessary but it was incredibly kind. She also bought sugar free popsicles just for me since she knew I couldn't eat anything else due to my GI disorder. When I get married in the future that's the kind of bride I want to be, working to accommodate people and make sure they have a nice time so it is a shared special day for everyone. Update- I sent her a venmo gift around her anniversary 💜

When she came out wearing it, her whole face was glowing she was so happy, none of the other dresses had really impressed her so far. Then her friends were just laughing at her. I also had friend-enemies as my wedding party because I didn't have sisters or any real friends, unfortunately. So I really felt for the bride and I hope everything turned out okay for her in the long run.

If character A was the one they wanted kicked off, they'd cut any video of person A succeeding at things or doing any work out. They'd only show clips of when that person failed or was taking a rest. They could have been working hard for 12 hours of the day, but they're only going to show that 5 minutes of footage where that person was resting and saying something like, "This is hard work. I don't want to do this." Then they'd portray that character like they just complained and didn't do any work at all.

Wholesome Bride Story I got confused for being the maid of honor at my friend's wedding because I was doing a lot of stuff to help with the wedding. I'd flown in a week early to help her get everything set up. I did this of my own accord because I was just so happy she was finally in a healthy relationship and I wanted to show her as much support as I could since I had been there and witnessed the abuse of her previous relationship to someone else. I wasn't even an official part of the wedding until the day of when they realized they didn't have anyone to cue the bridal party for walking down the aisle so I did that. Her brides maids were her sisters and one friend from childhood. The wedding was super small as her previous boyfriend/abuser had driven a wedge between her and almost everyone in her life burning the bridges as he went. The bride was so sweet and kind, she didn't dare ask anyone for anything as she still struggled with self-esteem from the previous relationship. Another reason why I flew in a week early was to make sure this new guy, who I hadn't met, didn't give off any red flags. He didn't. He was so pure and loved her with all his soul. The bride had a hard time believing any of it was real until sometime partway through the reception when it finally became apparent to her that she IS loved. She straight up glowed with how happy she was. It was a very simple wedding, paper plates and plastic dollar store decorations, but it was the most beautiful wedding I'd ever been to because of the genuine love you could see and feel from the couple. She insisted on taking me to the airport a few days after the wedding, taking time out of her honeymoon to do so, I told her I could get a cab but she wouldn't hear it. We weren't super close friends before the wedding but I think it was really important to her that I showed up anyway. We had a long and tearful hug at the airport and she has since been a crutch for me when I ended up trapped in a similar situation she had been in. I aspire to be as happy and kind of a bride as her if I ever get married.

But any time it comes back around to having to do something minor for me, in return for all the time, money, and effort I sink into friendships (I get it, that is my own fault for being nice and expecting that to eventually come back around), suddenly I am such a low priority that I finally see that I was just a wallet to fund things, a back to lift, and a truck to load and drive someone else's shit around for them and not a friend in any sense of the word. So now I just dont have friends, or people in general, in my life.

You have to see the full story of the last Say Yes to the Dress clip. The bride told her friend, that she has known since childhood, that she wasn’t the maid of honor because she “assumed she knew”. The bride literally told her while they waited to be taken back for the appointment. The girl she did make the maid of honor was antagonizing the friend the whole appointment and throwing it in her face that she didn’t get the role. I definitely felt bad for her and she definitely wasn’t just crying to make it about her.

The other girl that came in the bathroom judging was the friend from college that got maid of honour ( btw the 2 friends dont get along and they are catty to each other, so she came in thr bathroom to cause issues) The bride knew how her friend would react but waited until they were on tv at the appointment for bridesmaid dresses ( after the consultant asked who the MOH was) to tell someone she called her bff that she wasnt MOH. She embarrased her on national tv. And waited till the last moment to do it, where the MOH shamed her and was rude to her. She was trying to hold it together and walked off to catch herself when she couldnt. This little clip made her look worst than she did.

Exactly. The bride waited until the day of the fitting to tell her basically "You mean less to me than I mean to you". She didn't try to comfort her in any way, she let the chosen MOH bully her and cause problems, and she acted as though she didn't understand why she was so upset. She knew she was going to be upset. A good friend would have at least told her in advance that she wouldn't be the MOH so she could come to terms with it while not on camera. The way this was cut wasn't fair to her at all. Because I watched the whole episode, I don't think her "meltdown" was staged. I think they cut a lot and put it together for entertainment purposes (because they made it look like the chosen MOH said something awful to her every time she opened her mouth and the bride seemed uncaring) but the fact that Kymberly didn't tell her until the day of and let her believe all this time that she cared about her more than she actually did shows that the true "zillas" in this was the bride and the chosen MOH. I would have chosen Anita because even at the end of the episode she set aside her feelings and helped choose a dress for her friend's big day where the chosen MOH just kept making it about herself.

That no one got the best friend was another really bad part Backstory is, that the now bridesmaid had been friends with the bride for almost two decades (at least over 15 years) since they were kids. The MOH was a newer friend of just a few years. The bridesmaid and the bride had been through everything together growing up and the bridesmaid rightfully assumed she was going to be the MOH because of the bond they shared They bride purposefully waited until that day, to tell them who was going to be the MOH I to this day, find it really distasteful. Not because she chose someone else, but because she avoided that conversation until that point.

Which is extra disgusting because the old friend was not just hurt, she was publicly humiliated in front of the TV cameras, so the audience could feed off her tears like vultures.

I was at a wedding 2 weeks ago (first time for me) and the more bridezilla videos I watch, the more I appreciate the bride (a close friend of mine)! I had to travel for 10 hours to get there, so I had to spend 2 nights in the area and since I'm still in uni, I don't exactly have tons of money to spend on a room - so the bride just invited me to sleep at her parents place for the night before the wedding, which meant I even had the chance to help her into her dress, distract her when she started getting nervous etc.. She's the nicest person ever and I loved spending these special hours with her, especially since we don't see each other very often. The wedding itself was wonderful - the ceremony, the food, the venue, the guests, the music - just chef's kiss!

The last story, where the bridesmaid found out she wasn't the MOH and had a meltdown reminded me of my best friend's wedding The bride and I had known each other for years. We occasionally lost touch due to moving cities, but always managed to catch back up at some point. We had agreed since we were teenagers that we would be each other's MOH. I ended up eloping (another story, looking back it was rather stupid) but she understood why and was just happy that I was happy. One day out of the blue I got a wedding invitation. I called her and said, "I don't hear from you for years, didn't even know you had a boyfriend and suddenly I get an invite to a wedding??" She replied "Well, I didn't even GET an invite to yours, so we're even." We both laughed as we each knew the other was joking. I said "oh, do you still want me to be your MOH?' She said she already had someone else that she had become friends with through work. I didn't mind, just happy that she had found someone. Went to the wedding as a guest, was there early so I could see her while she was getting ready and was able to help her get dressed. The wedding was beautiful, and it never bothered me that I wasn't part of the wedding party. We are still good friends to this day.

(This was in the 80s, different social norms). He had already been there for 3 quarters, and was on his final warning for a different reason. We went out with some friends and I drank too much. Got sick on the way back. He carried me into my room and was making sure I was okay. Was only there 5 minutes, literally about to walk out the door, got busted by monitors. He would have been kicked out of campus housing, making him homeless. So we asked about family housing, said we needed to married and have the license to prove it. So we stood up before a jp and moved into on campus married housing. The worst part was I robbed my mother of seeing her only child get married, as we didn’t tell anyone in either family until after we moved in. I will always regret that part of it. It also set the tone for the marriage. I was always bailing him out of legal trouble up until a few years before he passed. Took me far too long to take off those rose colored glasses.

I didn't get upset when I wasn't moh at my bf's wedding. I already knew she wanted her sister in the role. I, being an introvert with severe anxiety, jumped the gun when she asked me to be an actual "usher". She was telling me she was engaged, and I was so excited, so when she said "will you be....", I just said yes thinking I would be one of the bridesmaids. The biggest problem was that her pastor didn't want anyone coming into the sanctuary after the wedding had already begun, so I had to stand in the hall with the doors shut and telling people they couldn't come in. I'm shocked I didn't have an anxiety attack. By being in the hall, I didn't get to actually see the ceremony. 😔

The best wedding I had ever been to, it was held outdoors by a stream. There were no bridesmaids or groomsmen. The small number of guests stood. Prayers were said and the bride and groom took their vows. Near the stream was a small building with a long table in a room. The invitation requested guests bring a dish to pass in lieu of a gift. Everyone went out of their way to make something extra special. We all went inside after the ceremony, grabbed a plate, and worked our way around the table dishing up. There were no decorations. There must have been tables somewhere, but I really don’t remember them. No tablecloth, centerpiece. The wedding was the simplest you can get for a wedding and reception, but it was filled with spirit, and joy, and love. You could truly feel it, and that’s what made it special.

That destination wedding was a crazy story. I went to a wedding over a weekend in Jamaica right before Christmas last year. My friend wasn't mad at all that i couldn't afford her hotel, I stayed next door and walked across the beach to hang out with her and the groom. She was grateful as I was the only guest, everyone else backed out due to Covid or thinking it was too expensive. Everyone tried to convince her to cancel her destination wedding and get married in the States. I felt bad for her but encouraged her to go to Jamaica. We had a blast...even though it was just a few days for me, that was all I could afford. They appreciated it still. People need to learn to be more grateful that anyone even wants to celebrate with them.

I’m still eternally grateful that my sister, who by all accounts easily could have been a low-level bridezilla-type, took the approach of “I don’t really care what y’all look like, just do what you feel good with” (and the dresses just had to be in a certain shade, but any full-length style). She was even fine with me wearing flats (I rarely wear heels but chose to for this occasion), and one of the other bridesmaids wore cowboy boots. It was a good time. I really think that’s the best approach to have.

Thats honestly the best way to go. If you want everyone to look their best for your wedding, then you have to allow them to make the choices they are most comfortable with and let them look how they know they will be best. Making everyone wear the exact same thing with same hair and makeup just doesnt turn out as well. I let my girls choose the style dress, wear their own silver jewelry, whichever black shoes they owned (it was an outdoor ceremony in late fall so i told them they could wear boots if they wanted, as long as they were black lol), wear anything over their dresses if they were cold and they could style their hair and makeup any way they wanted. We all looked stunning and the day was absolutely perfect.

She lost out on so much more. I wonder how many of those who skipped the wedding and helped that young lady by giving her the money the would have given the bride and groom have also not given the couple anything since. Just a thought.🥴

All we needed to do was show up for the preparations on the day itself, and we weren't even expected to give wedding gifts. Even just the idea of the bridal party paying for their own dresses (which usually have a color scheme or style that the bridesmaid wouldn't wear in everyday life) is insane to me.

As bride (no parents), I was careful on my costs and saved for my wedding including a little extra. Everything went well. Sadly, 5 years later, friend whom I bought dress for demanded I attend her daughter's wedding insisting I pay for her dress as MOB, a new dress for myself, and pay for two gifts (one for her to give to her daughter and the other for me to give to her daughter). I met her daughter only once years earlier. I declined to pay for her so I was disinvited. No regrets.

It was on sale, from the prom dept of a major retailer (after prom is a GREAT time to get formal dresses). Here's the kicker... I waited until after we found her dress to chose the wedding colors. That way it would not restrict the dress choice. Royal blue turned out GORGEOUS! WHY do brides/ bridesmaids make this so damned difficult?! It's about sharing a special day with loved ones. It can be beautiful without causing harm.

Laughed when I read your comment...I too was married twice, the costs minimal (a couple grand or so,) very small but fabulous, some intriguing happenings...the 1st, the JP forgot us and when finally tracked down at a community BBQ was well toasted, just the tip, but made the reception the next day all the merrier as we laughed at the many snafus. The 2nd, even more memorable...my papa had reservations about attending, a fella who liked a good party, interesting people, in the end he relented. Watching his reactions to the wide range of attendees, to see him having a great time in spite of his reservations, priceless. And then there were the crashers, a small heard of bulls crashing through the woods 'cross river, loud enough to interrupt the ceremony, but indeed unique. The real and staggering cost came in ending the marriages and so no, will never marry again. It's somewhat sad to see folks with such high expectations, entitlements, go into debt, screw up long held friendships, familial relationships for a days event, half of which will end up in a divorce...live and learn, I suppose.

Definitely sucks to not be on the level of friendship you hold for someone else. I was invited to a wedding and this dude was someone I grew up with, considered a brother. I didn’t think much about not hearing about his wedding as he had told me to expect the most non-traditional wedding with no wedding party. Walked into the MOST traditional wedding I’ve ever attended with a huge wedding party filled with ppl I didn’t even know. Really put things into perspective for me, could have been a really simple text but instead I find out at the event, including the bachelor party I wasn’t invited to. Never made a thing about it but it fucking stung like no other. I saw my buddy all of 20 minutes and he was plastered so it really was like I didn’t see him at all. I couldn’t get out of there fast enough. The next day I got a pity invitation to join them but it was far too little too late. I agree it’s all not that important but damn, just didn’t see it coming. Hate how dramatic this sounds but I know myself and our friendship will never be the same again in my eyes.

I was a pretty non chalant bride and was a firm believer of 'those who want to attend will attend with one invite, and those who won't, will not be there even if you beg them'. Weddings in our community last over 4 days, the last day being hosted by the groom's family at his hometown. Most of my closest friends were from my husband's hometown since I met them while studying there. They had come to my town for the day of the wedding. I greatly appreciated it since it was a bit of a travel. But no one attended on the 4th day even though it was in their hometown. That day, it was majorly my husband's family and I could have used the support. In hindsight, they were all saving their time off from work for the civil ceremony of another friend in the group, which was within a week of my wedding and not even the main ceremony in our culture. (barring 2 friends), everyone attended that one. I am totally aware of that friend's status as the glue of the group so it was understandable. My husband and I attended her ceremony on a layover to our honeymoon because she means that much to all of us. But 0 out of the bare minimum 5 expected on our date was a tough pill to swallow. One of them, who is a little tough to handle but I have a gift with (😂😉) didn't travel to my hometown for the wedding, and frankly i didn't expect her to. But even for the 4th day, she said it was too far (it was in the same city and she has a car) and since no one else from the group will be there she couldn't come. I was the bride and couldn't be with her the entire time, true, but she couldn't put aside her hypothetical discomfort for a couple of hours to support me. It was kinda onbrand for her, but I somehow expected more cz it was my wedding. Broke my heart even though I didn't think it would. 3 of my friends from the group, who all live in the same city, have gotten married since then and most of the others have attended all 4 days of festivities despite no major change in their financial/ time off status since my wedding. I have attended only the weddings and nothing more, especially the '4th day' ceremonies. Helped that I dont live in the same city and had to fly in and visit my in laws and parents in the same trip. I have since accepted, kinda made peace with and used to my full advantage my status as the 'fringe friend' continuing to wish them all well, like I always have, even if from afar😂😂😂

Oh, that's awful! I'm truly sorry that you were treated like that. Please know that, as much as it hurts, it was well and truly your sister's loss - not yours. One day she'll realise, but I doubt she'll ever admit it. You deserved better and I'm sure that the guests who knew your family all judged her as to why you weren't a part of it... I'm completely with @Jan McGuire on this one. When I got married, I just wanted the people I cared about there. People who want an "Instagram, picture perfect" wedding are just wanting fakery, not reality - not a great basis for a long term relationship... When a good friend of mine got married, I was a bridesmaid and her sister was severely disabled. So she was MoH and I was her assistant, to help her with her duties. We had her dress specially fitted, made accommodations at the venue, and I supported her, ensuring (after lots of conversations in the lead-up between myself, the bride and her sister) that I wasn't stepping on any toes. I helped her with the speech (as it wasn't something she was comfortable doing alone). I did the bulk and she delivered the lines that were important to her - all done at her request. I would've been *mortified* if she'd felt pushed out in any way, and knew the bride felt the same way. I'll never understand people who focus on what disabled people can't do and not what they CAN do. They're still people, still our loved ones, STILL IMPORTANT!

I got married 48 years ago. My hubby and I got married in my mom and dads living room, the cake cost $35.00, and punch around $10.00, were still doing AOK, we had about 30 people…just the people we were closest too.

Because you didn’t get married to be a main character or just for the wedding. You had your priorities right. These ppl just want a show and to be the star. It’s sad really. Your wedding sounded lovely. Congrats on 48 years. I’m almost at 18. Ours was a bit bigger, the traditional hotel type reception but 90 ppl. All direct family members and a few friends. I couldn’t have handled any bigger

My SIL had her wedding at a GORGEOUS spot about 3 hours away. We arrived at the hotel that they paid for to gift bags for each of us. We got ready and jumped on a coach bus that shuttled us to the event. We were just guests and I felt as important as I did on my own wedding day 😂

My friends had a wedding at a hotel and they specifically told us on the invite that they were hoping to get a certain number of guests stay so that they could have the whole place for the weekend. They listed prices and asked everyone to RSVP and confirm if you were coming or coming and staying at the hotel. So simple, almost everyone booked a room (some people shared) and it was the best wedding I've been to.

Weddings are great to know who actually think of you as a friend. About 7 months ago I learned that a friend of mine is getting married this year (Her mother told my mother and my mother told me). We have been friends for 16+ years (since we where 9yo). I knew that she couldn't afford a big wedding but at least I hoped that she would tell me that she was getting married. She never told me and this morning I finally decided to simply congratulate her. Her response was that she couldn't afford to invite me but I could attend if "I whish to" I basically said that I understood and that she doesn't need to worry. Of course I'm not coming to the wedding but at least I know that our friendship is very low in her list. I'm at fault for waiting, but I honestly thought that she would be hyped to tell me (she has told me many times, since we where little, about how she desired her wedding to be like and ask my opinion. Well turns out she doesn't want my opinion for the actual thing 😞).

Polish way of wedding: a couple who got married pays for all their guests, including food, hotels, etc. Sometimes it's even like hundred people accommodated and they don't pay at all. It is usually a huge celebration with a live band, photographer and never ending courses of meal and vodka on the tables (no limit). No doubt that a band and a photographer will be fed and they will drink alco, too. On the second day we have post wedding party :))) Normally the wedding ends at 5-6 a.m. and post party starts already at 11 a.m. with a huge dinner (we traditionally drink vodka during the wedding so it's the best way to avoid hangover: eat a lot and drink again!). So basically, it's like 2 days wedding, in some regions 3 days. As I said, the couple pays for all of that, most of guests don't give expensive gifts and the only people who buy very expensive gifts are very close family members, for example parents, grandparents, godfathers, godmother, not even siblings. Right now it is very trendy to ask guests not to buy presents but donate money for a dog shelter or buy some petfood (that is brought to the shelter by a couple). Usually the bride pays for her party a week before, buys alco etc. Girls usually buy some present together and if possible, hire a stripper. Guys just drink and eventually go to a go-go club (if it is a big city). Sometimes a couple organises a party together for few friends a week before. They pay for everything then. There is only one bridesmaid and one best man and we call them "witnesses". They pay for their own clothes and usually a bride doesn't even decide what they need to wear. They can consult but mostly that's it. We dont choose witnesses because they look good. We choose brothers or sisters, or best friends. Most of Polish still did not adapt Western trends, thank god. It's still just uncontrollable drinking party with some fights of drunk guys or passing outs 😁 Just be like Polish though. If you want your friends to be on your wedding, do that because you love them, not because you want to earn the money on them or gain anything what could cross your mind.

This girl who locked herself in the room: I watched this episode. They have known each other from a childhood and were best friends forever and a new bridesmaid was just her co-worker she knew for a year or something? If I remember well. A bride took the girls to choose a dress and then she admitted that her co-worker would be a bridesmaid. So I do not really think that girl overreacted. She reacted as someone really hurt and betrayed actually.

So the final episode of Say Yes to the Dress… The crying bridesmaid had been bffs with the bride since grade school and found out at the beginning of that appointment that she wasn’t MOH. Instead the bride’s other friend was appointed. During the entire appointment the MOH was openly mocking the bm whenever the bride wasn’t in hearing shot. BM excused herself to go to the restroom and the girl outside the restroom “trying to calm her down” Was the MOH who’s been tormenting her all day.

Regarding that hotel block that went for a rate over $600, that’s just insane. When we were looking for venues in Miami, the main concern was getting a room block that the guests could afford. We booked three room blocks at three different hotels of different price tiers. Yes, it is YOUR day, but you need to take care of your guests. Feed them good food and find affordable places for them to stay. That said, Miami is expensive, we are from there and we knew it would be pricey for some of our friends from out of town so we did our best to make it affordable for them. I never required my bridesmaids to stay at the hotel where we held the event, but they booked rooms there because it was convenient for them. Some of our guests stayed at AirBnBs. My in-laws hired drivers to get guests to the wedding. It’s YOUR day, but it’s not just about you. You want your day to be filled with love and good vibes, no one attending your wedding needs to walk away from the event in debt.

I think in the last part from "Say yes to the dress", the bridesmaid actually found out at the fitting that she wouldn't be the MOH and that's the reason she couldn't contain herself. The bride and her had been childhood friends while the MOH was someone the bride met at college, but connected well with. At first the boutique staff were baffled by her behaviour but then they kinda understood her when they got the whole story. I think that was how it was if I'm not mixing other instances from SYTtD. 😅

If that’s true, I don’t blame the bridesmaid at all. That bride is cold to not only not have her as maid of honor (which I get is her choice but still you know that’s gonna hurt her really bad) but makes it 10x worse by revealing that at the appointment. She was hoping it would contain the drama by doing it in front of a group of people and at an important event which was totally selfish and embarrassing. Bridesmaid has my complete support if your recount of the events is true.

@@cc1526 My thing is, don't most brides go around asking girls to be their bridesmaid or maid of honor, or maybe it's just something in my state. Clearly she wasn't asked to be the maid of honor, so it should have been clear before hand that she was not the MOH. Also, if this bride had skipped out on asking, it shouldn't really matter how long you have known a person. It should matter who the bride is closest too, or feels could take on the responsibility better. It's possible to meet someone later in life who you connect more to, but that doesn't mean your oldest friendship means nothing. And, I mean i've seen a few girls who would ask siblings over their best friends, and vice versa.

I can understand the stickiness of the situation. I had a best friend from elementary school, but was less in contact with her through my college years. If I had gotten married at age 23, one of my college friends might have been the more obvious maid of honor and several others might have gotten bent out of shape that they weren't selected. My friend from my pre-college days still would have been invited into the bridal party, but I might have been more torn about who should be maid of honor. At that point in time, I always thought I might circumvent the issue by just using a few female relatives and simply inviting my friends.

So I have a wedding story. Backstory, my mom and this girl’s mom had been friends since high school and me and this girl practically grew up together. Our families were super close for my entire life. We went to each other’s graduations, proms and other big life events when money allowed. We will call her Megan. Megan’s family was wealthier than ours as we had a big family. Well I was in college and found out that she was getting married. I didn’t expect to be a maid of honor as we had kinda grown apart as we got older but I thought she would have at least called to tell me she was getting married. I had to hear secondhand from my mom that she was getting married. She called my mom to tell her and personally invite her. Well my mom of course was upset to find out that not only had Megan not called me but she also didn’t put me in the bridal party and was stating that her oldest friend was her maid of honor, which is technically me as we were in diapers together. My feelings were hurt a bit that she didn’t reach out to me like she did my mom but I was over it. My mom however was not. My mom called her to tell her that she had hurt my feelings by not asking me to be in her bridal party. Then I get a call from Megan. She offers to let me come to the bachelorette party that’s 2 weeks away, which of course I have to work as I am paying for college and can’t go. Then she proceeds to tell me that if I want, she can put me in the pictures with the bridal party, not actually be a bridesmaid, if I buy my own bridesmaid dress, which she provided a link for. But. She leads with, “I found a cheap version of the dress since I know you can’t afford the actual dress.” This of course has me almost in tears but I thank her and tell her I will think about it and let her know if I can do that. She didn’t even originally invite me to the wedding and the only reason she offered to let me be in the photos with the bridal party, is because she loves my mom and my mom was mad at her. Ultimately, I decided that I didn’t want to be in the photos and I really didn’t care to go to the wedding as I needed the extra shift with work. My mom did go to the wedding, and boy did she have plenty to say after the fact. The word she used to describe the wedding was Clusterf*ck. The bride’s mom showed up completely trashed acting wild and making a scene. My mom had to step in to help Megan get ready as her maid of honor and her other bridesmaids were not helping her. The maid of honor also insulted my mom by calling her a lumberjack and a redneck because of where she is from.The wedding started super late because one of her sisters locked herself in the bathroom and wouldn’t come out. She had also made room in her bridal party for both of her sisters to be bridesmaids after they threw a fit to be in the wedding. They divorced after a year. Also, just a side note, the reason we grew apart was because she would barely speak to me but would contact everyone else in my family. My mom and I would go and visit and she would treat me like I didn’t exist. She also threw me on the ground once as a teenager out of nowhere just joking around and I got hurt and instead of apologizing she just said that I needed to toughen up but didn’t say sorry or anything and I just let it go. AITA for not going to the wedding?

I am singing in a band and we do a lot of weddings. One time we came into this beautiful location on a little island. When we got inside, the bridal party was eating at a really large table. Dead silence. No one was speaking the WHOLE dinner. So we were worried that this gig would become difficult. It turned out te be ok though. At one point there were people hanging on to the bar en de bride and groom left the venue on highway to hell from ACDC. One of my fellow bandmates went to the maid of honor who was the best friend of the bride, and told her what a great party it was. She answered: "yeah, but i don't think that the bride and I are going to be friends after this". What exactly happened between them, I don't know. But the bride turned out to be a huge bridezilla's and she made everyone's life a living hell during the time she planned her wedding. It explained the silence at the dinner table.

This whole thing of expecting others to do ANYTHING for you…it’s the EXPECTATION for me. I was married (1988) at my new brother-in-law’s condo. I got my dress on sale for $300, I paid for my flowers. I was marrying the man I loved, and I invited people to witness our commitment because we wanted to share our happiness with loved ones and I expected nothing more than attendance. I didn’t have a honeymoon-we we’re poor! But the best man gave us a night in a nice hotel as a gift and it was one of the happiest days of my life. These entitles brats make no sense to me, and it often seems that the love, happiness and family togetherness that’s the whole point of a wedding gets totally lost.

I saw the episode that last clip was from. The girl that was crying was the bride's best friend since childhood and the other girl was her friend from college. The friend from college always treated the other friend like dirt and was rude to her during the appointment. Plus, the bride waited until the appointment to tell the childhood friend that she wasn't the maid of honor. They did kind of did her dirty. Plus, the bride wanted the maid of honor to have a different dress from the other bridesmaids and that also kind of set the girl off because they kept selecting really nice dresses for her and dresses that didn't look good on her, while the maid of honor made fun of her and how she looked in the dresses. It was really rude. They did finally come together and and the bride apologized for not telling her sooner and the maid of honor apologized for her behavior and they finally picked a dress that flattered all the bridesmaids. So it worked out. But it was sad.

Bride said it was because of budget, so I sucked it up, but when my car broke down at City Hall, I was dragged into the wedding party by her family and other friends who KNEW me, to get some fixing. They were dumbstruck when they found out I was only a regular guest, and that felt quite reassuring TBH. But the hurt of seeing an allegedly former friend of hers, at the bridal table, was deep. It took me years to realize that I got ousted because I became single while the friend brought back from the trash got fianced and had a kid. Dodged a bullet in the long run I guess?

I can kind of relate to the last bridesmaid. I wasn't a bridesmaid in this situation, but I discovered one of my best friends wasn't that much of a friend. I had been invited to the hen's night (bachelorette for Muricans/Canadians) and I hadn't received an invite to the wedding. I thought that maybe it had got lost in the post, so I asked when the invites were going out, only to be told I wasn't invited to the wedding! I was pretty hurt by that. If I hadn't been relying on someone else to give me a ride home, I would have just quietly faded into the background and left. I had to sit there the rest of the night listening to the others rave about how they were looking forward to the wedding. I understand that you can't always invite everyone you want to, but if someone isn't invited to the wedding, should you even invite them to the hen's night? It feels really off to me.

And sadly, you were probably only invited to the hen party replacing someone that canceled. I have gone to a few weddings knowing I was just a seat filler for people who canceled last minute. Which I was fine with since I got to enjoy the party. And would bring a small gift.

The best to have handled the block of rooms problem would have been to contact wedding party members and discuss it with them first. Having more than one option with different price points would have been ideal. I was in a wedding where the bride was courteous enough to discuss it before she booked instead of demanding the impossible.

Oh my God, I have a story. I was the maid of honor for my sister's wedding a long time ago now. Her best friend was PISSED. Kept making comments the whole day about how she should have been the MOH because my sister was HER MOH. She eventually asked if she could be the witness on their marriage certificate because she deserved to sign since my sister signed hers. Turns out... They only needed one signature and they used my bro-in-law's dad as their witness. The sweet, subtle joy I felt when she was told was incredible. She was like 5 months pregnant at the time and I am very much a pacifist so I definitely was not going to engage but karma had my back.

That very first video with the awful "friends" made me think of when I went dress shopping for my wedding. It was my mom and two of my bridesmaids, Sarah and Linda (the third couldn't make it). I tried on a dress, and I knew it was NOT the one. I looked like the bride version of the Queen of Hearts from Alice in Wonderland. It was bad. But I had to show them (the sales lady understood that it wasn't the dress but thought my plan was funny). So I come out acting like I live the dress and there is my mom and Sarah trying to politely hide their horror. Then Linda comes around the corner from the restroom and just blurts out "Oh Hell No!" and then stutters into, "I mean... Um.." by this point I am laughing so hard I'm crying. The palpable relief on all their faces. Probably my favorite part of the wedding planning.

"I'm in the bridal party and had to stay at the hotel she picked." No, no, no! When my cousin got married, I as well as other members of the bridal party stayed in different hotels. Since there were a lot of hotels in the area, she was totally cool with that. All she asked is that we were at least within driving distance.

The hotel story: absolutely NTA. My first thought went straight to "she needs the room booked to get something free." Also what kind of AH books a room block at a hotel with a $700 night room rate?! That's asking people to not come unless you're a 1% The dress story: that bride was shitty for a) picking a dress one of her bridal party members specifically felt uncomfortable in and b) not returning the money. Bridesmaid should have taken her to small claims court. The last story: that bride is at fault for not telling her friend she wasn't MOH, especially since she likely knew that the other gal considered her a best friend even if she didn't feel the same.

The best solution I ever saw for a bride who had 3 sisters and 1 SIL all fighting over who should be Maid of Honor was the bride asking her only living great grandmother (in her late 90's) to be Matron of Honor. No one dared to say a word of objection and the old lady had a great time at the last large family gathering she ever attended.

One of my good friends got married in 2019. He and his fiancée booked room blocks at a hotel a few blocks away from their venue. At the time, I was working as an admin for a vacation club, I got a 40% discount when I would stay at a partner hotel. My friend was perfectly fine with me doing that. And I was just a guest. I was a bridesmaid in another friend’s wedding in 2017. When the bridal party went to pick out bridesmaid dresses, each of us were tasked to pick out Top 3 dresses to try on. The one I fell in love with had POCKETS!! Unfortunately, I was overruled 🤷🏻‍♀️

The last situation is an episode of SYTD Bridesmades. The bride told Ashleigh, her friend from elementary, that Kimberly was going to be MOH. Kimberly then proceeded to bully her through the appointment while the bride watched and smiled. She didn't lose it. She was hurt and bullied. Kimberly and the rest of the bridesmaids proceeded to be "nice" after the consultants said something.

I am always floored by the brides and grooms that think their friends and family are OBLIGATED to participate in these events. When the couple are asking for participants in THEIR event they should list the anticipated costs and requirements for the wedding party. Then the potential participants can make an informed decision on participation. When I got married WE paid for the bridesmaid dresses, rented, and the groomsman, rented Tux or uniforms. We covered food and lodging. Everything was very low drama and we even had a destination wedding for the bridal party. Many of these people are more concerned with the wedding and not the marriage.

Remember the Say Yes to the Dress episode for that last story. The bridesmaid crying was basically ambushed by the MOH and bride completely ignored her. Felt super bad watching it even though having your meltdown at someone else's wedding dress appointment was not great timing.

$200 isn’t pinching pennies for a lot of people. Where I’m from in southern Indiana, you can rent a two story house with a fenced in backyard for $750, there are still jobs that pay $10 or less per hour. $200 can make or break people living paycheck to paycheck.

Charlotte - I must admit that you made me laugh out loud for a reason that you probably didn't even realize! When you were reading the story about Daphne and Tara, it had the initials FSIL, and you kept saying "Future Son-in-law", I'm pretty sure it meant "Future Sister-in-law"!! It probably would have been a little hard for a guy to wear a strapless dress! 🤣 Love You and your Channel! 😊 💜
