To the lady who missed her sister's wedding and bachelorette functions so she could spend time instead with their dying father, don't worry, I'm sure this won't be her last wedding. I have no doubt you'll have several more chances to be her bridesmaid, mainly bc she won't have any friends left by that point.

[@themoreyouknow7418]

We should all have a friend like that, and by the sound of it (just assuming best lady meaning she was a female best man, so was part of the groom’s side), the bride is totally cool with the friendship (or also close with her), so it sounds like a really healthy relationship to boot if I heard correctly.

[@SensationallySilky]

That birthday story resonated with me. I was invited to wedding that was taking place on my birthday the year my husband passed away. It was the first wedding I was to attend after he died (we'd only been married a few months/he'd only been gone three months at the time of their wedding). It was a lot but it meant a lot to them that I came. I told them I would come to the reception, and I went. To my surprise they had a whole birthday cake for me, they had their DJ play Stevie Wonder's version of Happy Birthday and all our friends that were there (it was a big group of us that have all been pals forever) gave me hugs and it was amazing. (I had NO idea they were going to do it and knowing they changed important plans to show ME love on their special day really meant the world)

[@sandranorum6125]

First of all, I’m so sorry for your loss 💔That’s so kind though, I remember how much even the smallest act of kindness meant to me after my SO passed away, and I can only imagine how much it must have meant to you that your friends did that. What a beautiful thing to do 🥰

[@haylestormable]

The ones withs the brides throwing hissy fits because their friends needed to be with their dying family members make me sick! My younger brother, who I'm very close to, attempted suicide 4 DAYS before my wedding and was admitted into a mental hospital for the next few months. As devastated and upset as me and my husband were he couldn't make it, we told him we would have rather him had gotten the care he needed. When he got out we sat down with him and showed him the wedding video, we even had the DJ dedicate a song to him during the reception which he got to see

[@navi_6621]

These stories are so insane and it breaks my heart seeing friendships end to pettiness and money issues. I wanna share my bridesmaid story just for laughs now. I was a maid of honor for my childhood BFF who didn’t make me pay for a thing except for gas to drive and to BYOB. She hand-knitted my Star-Spangled Banner skirt for me. (We were raised Texas trailer trash, I knew what this was going to be lol.) She had a bachelorette party the night before the wedding, got super drunk for the first time in her life, and tried to drive a truck because she got pre-wedding jitters, to which I stopped her by giving her a big forced hug and telling her how lovely of a bride she’s going to be. She calmed down and got a good night’s rest before the wedding. All is bridesmaids wore star-spangled tank tops and skirts. Some of us were barefoot for fun because the ceremony was held in the soft grassy field behind the local Baptist church. Her husband was a tall, goofy son of a b**** who I didn’t originally like, but later warmed up to him because I could see he really loved her. Nobody objected, we all cheered and yee-hawed when they kissed. The wedding cake was from Walmart where she worked at the time, it was cute and delicious. The man she chose wasn’t the kind of man who forced her to stay home with the kids, he fully supported her going to college while they raise 2 kids. She’s now a registered nurse, still in the country, and I moved to Dallas and became a fraudulent investigator. 🤓 I am in love with the city and my yee-haw days are basically over, but my southern accent comes out when we visit each other. 🤠 Which is funny because I’m also half Mexican and when I talk to my dad I have a slight Mexican accent. 😆 Very fun background. The point of this story is you don’t need $60k to have a nice wedding. You just need good friends, good family, and good cake.

[@yasminthespiritsinger7704]

That sounds like a great time.

[@fanfictiondreamer7836]

A truly enlightening story that restores my faith in humanity. I wish all wedding stories were this uplifting. Bridezillas need to TAKE NOTE!!!

[@Mon67ica]

My cake was from Walmart as well. I have a beautiful, hand blown, glass cake topper and I took it with me when we ordered the cake. We requested a half sheet cake with an 8” round on top to accommodate my topper. Those were my “demands”. I spoke with the bakery manager and said “this is for my wedding, so have some fun with it.” For around $30, I had the most perfect wedding cake ever. (Almost 21 years later, the cake topped is still on my Knick-knack shelf.)

[@spacecat3198]

Now that’s a genuinely happy story and wedding. You all (sorry, y’all) sound amazing. May you all have many happy years.

Love was truly in the air that day

[@Jordan-gb3yr]

TLDR: bride caused a scene because my hearing aids were being too “distracting” and was ruining her perfect day. The bridesmaids threatened to leave, and the groom backed me up. To the OP who was told to take off their glasses, my story is similar. So earlier this year I was asked to be a bridesmaid for one of my friends weddings. I of course said yes, as I had known her and her soon to be husband for years. She wanted all bridesmaids to wear this complicated updo that the hairdresser would do at the venue at the same time the bride was getting ready. All is fine and well, the hairstyle complimented hers so no one seen an issue...until after the hairdresser did mine, 2 hours before the wedding. The bride immediately began throwing a tantrum, stomping around and pushing her makeup artist out of the way to continue pitching a fit. None of us had any clue what she was talking about, screaming about how my hair is “unacceptable.” All eyes in the room looked at me, then to her, then to my hair. No one seen an issue. When the brides mother asked what was wrong, she began sobbing uncontrollably at me somehow ruining her perfect day. Turns out, she had an issue with my hearing aids. They “grabbed too much attention” and took away from the bride. That they were tacky and i should have never worn them, because they weren’t what we “discussed” as accessories and jewelry. Her mother kept trying to explain to her that I, in fact, could not NOT wear my hearing aids. The bride knew I wore them, had never said anything prior to this moment. I suggested that, since i was the first bridesmaid to have her hair done, we could change it to something more...accommodating, that could hide them if she wanted. She wouldn’t have any of that. No. The only solution in her mind was to take away my ability to hear. Bride kept insisting I was ruining everything by wanting to wear something she wasn’t comfortable with. Even some of the friends of the groom, who weren’t involved with the wedding, was telling her to calm down. She kept yelling and causing a scene, until finally I told her if she wanted all of her bridesmaids, then she will let me HEAR. The other bridesmaids agreed, making a move to leave. im not going deaf for the entire wedding. Even if I WAS feeling generous, I still would refuse because I want to see one of my best friends (the groom) get married to someone he adores. The bride finally calmed down and the makeup artists had to hurry to fix her makeup. She still rarely talks to me, but I don’t really care. Her husband, when bride told him about me being “selfish” immediately backed me up and started this huge fight. This is because the groom has a brother who is partially deaf (like me) and uses crutches due to his cerebral palsy. By her insinuating my disability is simply too inconvenient for her and her lifestyle, she is implying the same about her now-husbands brother.

Stories like these make me glad to be a nerd with nerd friends. I'm invited to a LARP wedding in September, and the entire wedding party will camp in an old castle ruin for the night and roleplay in period-appropriate garb over the course of the two days; the only present we're expected to bring is homecooked food so the wedding can have a large, medieval-style buffet. No drama at all, just nerdy people having fun. :D It's gonna be great.

[@Moo-2310]

That sounds like fun. My wedding (if I have one, I'm single right now) would be very peaceful. Small outdoor ceremony in a flower garden, nice dinner, and then a weekend by the coast somewhere sunny. I'd be wearing a knee length, pastel blue, simple dress, hair in a bun, and glowy, natural makeup.

My mother is a wedding planner, so growing up, I had to deal with so much of this second-hand b.s from all of these families I didn't even know, so I already know the deal. I just ended up getting married in the courthouse 10 states away and not telling many people. She was infuriated when she finally found out, but whatever. When I was 7, I was entertaining the idea of my wedding in the future along with the other girls, and I said I wanted a red and black wedding. Red velvet, heaps of velvet red roses, black candles, black isle with red petals, bridesmaids in sleek red dresses with chokers/red heels, the guys in red-black-white tuxes, black and white invitations with red ribbons and shiny candy red font, crystal decorations, sheer black and red glitter wedding dress with sparkling black veil, black, red-cushion pews, ride off in a red Viper, etc. The whole 9. I even drew pictures. XD Red, or red and black color combo are my favorite color(s), so it made sense. Mom went into complete panic mode, saying that was "wrong", getting all the older ladies to chastise me for it, then she said that was NOT happening. She kept telling me that it was wrong to even want such a wedding, and that I really don't want it. Called my little pictures "bad" too. Yes, because I don't know what I like, and a wedding planner couldn't crack open one of her own many wedding books and magazines to see that not all weddings are white, cream and pastely. Every non-genre party I've hosted to this day has been red-themed, so screw that, and her trying to shame me for wanting red. She even had the gall to say that my favorite colors are purple and lavender, no questions asked. I'm not a fan of purple at all, hardly anything I own is purple. She painted my room lavender one time during my high school goth phase. Hated it. XD I was 7 years old when I could see the future of my mother controlling every inch of my wedding if I let her, and it made me just not want a wedding in the first place, totally put off by it, especially how she bossed all of the other family members around with their weddings, so it was the courthouse for me. I can't stand control freaks. She was right, the black and red wedding didn't happen, but she also didn't get a wedding, an invite, or notification of my marriage, soooo oof. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[@t.matthies3049]

Based on the divorce rate, I think it's because a lot of couples aren't interested in marriage as much as the wedding. If you love someone, it doesn't matter if you get married in a castle or a church basement with a potluck supper. If you're getting married to someone you truly love, the important thing is you get to marry them. I'm not married yet, but the church basement thing is probably going to be my wedding. Although I am Mennonite, so having a simple wedding is pretty traditional (at one point in time, having a church wedding would have been seen as worldly in some Mennonite circles-they used to have small ceremonies in people's houses instead).

[@Redster3]

Because they only care about status and wealth, which is NOT true love. They're nasty, rude, and rotten people who use others for expenses. Seriously, I feel bad for the groom when normally in these situations he ends up with the debts. Even worse when it ends in divorce

Honestly, this just makes me grateful for all the genuinely happy and pleasant weddings I've been to. I've never seen a bride (or groom) display the kinds of vindictive, petty, or downright vile behaviour that is chronicled in these stories. Literally the most unpleasant behaviour I have ever personally witnessed at a wedding was a friend of the bride who made a ridiculously long and unnecessary speech. That's it, that was the extent of it. If that was the worst thing I'd ever have to experience at a wedding, I'd be perfectly content with that.

I have to add to this, that if you are a mother, sister, or friend of the bride DONT TURN HER INTO A BRIDEZILLA. Some women get so into it they seem to forget it’s not their wedding, and that they’re just along for the ride.

“Hair color is too similar to hers!” Bullshit. I was in my cousins wedding this year and we look a lot alike even though her mom is my Dad’s sister, I’m also practically a carbon copy of my Mom. Most of the bridal party were brunettes with the exception of my cousins one friend (black hair with red streaks, which was allowed) and my other cousin (they are sisters) who is blond. It was all fine. And for the bridal shower we just went to this local place to do ceramics, we paid for our own stuff (all 15 dollars or under) then went to her parents house, right down the driveway from mine, to eat pizza and watch the “Bridesmaids” movie. I had a great time and might also be in my other cousins wedding next year, but since it is so far away I don’t think she has most of the bridesmaids picked, but I know for sure that my cousin’s sister is her maid of honor just like in reverse at my cousin’s wedding.

My daughter lost a friendship over this kind of crap. Good friend from high school got pregnant but still wanted a “nice” wedding. She was struggling, living with her boyfriend while my daughter went straight to work and was doing well. So she picks my girl as maid of honor and tells her she must pay for venue, and catering, not plan it mind you, cause her mom was picking everything out. But when my daughter told her she was bringing a date - a young man she had been dating for a year, the girl said no, there is no room, and she didn’t want any f**kbuddies at the wedding. Then the girls fiancé and mom called my daughter using the same term, insisting she could not bring anyone, because she imagined my daughter was living her best life with all the money she was earning, partying and dating (and sleeping with) all kinds of guys. So my daughter blocked her, got back her deposit for the venue and catering, and never talked to her again. The girl recently tried to contact her on Facebook when she saw that my girl was marrying that young man, but my girl didn’t respond.

One of my babysitters, who was more like an older sister to me, had wedding an outdoor wedding where I was a guest and it was perfect, and I was so happy to see her and her guy(who's really amazing) tie the knot.

My maid of honour actually had to bitch at me to get me to actually be more of a strict bride. Here is a brand of cheap dresses, pick a style you like and I will have them made in all the same shade of blue. The $200 dress is all you have to buy. How do you want our hair? they ask. I dunno, pick a style that suits you. What about makeup? Just aim for natural. Heel or flats? Whatever you feel comfy in. Gave my maid of honour a budget and told her to surprise me for my hens night. It was awesome. Got a call from the venue saying someone had accidentally booked the other half of the venue to an event with loud music. We came to an arrangement that the flute performance part of their schedule would line up with my vows and it was beautiful.

And imagine family on both sides tried to make feel guilty over not having too many people involved in our wedding. I wanted to have my hair long down my back -like usual, but 3 out of 4 bridesmaids wanted it short bc they never understood why I wanted pretty locks flowing nearly to my butt. I said fuck it then, cut it but stop bickering. They also wouldn't let me eat bc my sister was convinced if I ate I'd get sick over nerves during the ceremony so I was hangry af during a 3pm service. I just wanted a fn breakfast sammich, to walk down the damn aisle, marry my husband, drink champagne, and take off those high heels that I would never wear in everyday life. It was still absolutely beautiful honestly but I do wish my husband let us elope lol Attention young couples: ELOPE. GO SOMEWHERE GORGEOUS! Facetime your maid of honor and best man during the ceremony. It'll be less pricey and nobody will be drunkenly crowding your home and property until midnight lol

Reasons why people lose friends

[@nikkivillemaire4855]

I've been to 3 weddings: My cousin's, my brother's and a close family friend's weddings! We were all related to/friends with the Groom, and thankfully, their soon to be wives were not bridezillas!

[@jessiejeanne9717]

I've been to quite a few weddings and I've never seen a bridezilla first hand. I'm very blessed.

[@MissTruthz]

Watching these types of videos weeks leading up to my wedding made me super self aware because I wanted to make sure I did NOT cause anybody any problems because I did not want to be a bridezilla. It’s not in my personality to be a bitch anyways but I was super self conscious and afraid of making things difficult. I always checked up on everyone and was worried more about pleasing everyone else.but unfortunately because I refused to speak up about things I didn’t like I ended up getting married in hair and makeup that I absolutely hated. 😂😂 I really need to find a balance.

[@NeinBreaker]

Why do many people obsess over the wedding? It’s only one day, and the time you spend afterwards with your spouse is much more important.

[@xxle_psycho_moonxx6130]

i didn’t understand the February one at first, but then i remembered that February is cold in most places (where i live February is mild, it’s scorching hot most of the time even though it does feel really cold in the winter and part of spring when you’re use to the blazing heat)

22:46 jeez here's my story about birthday and weddings , at my best friends wedding I'm maid of honor , the wedding was 1 day before my birthday , so come wedding day no one knew, except our closest friends, everything was perfect we were having a blast and then at precisely 12 midnight the bride stops everything and proceeds to make a speech about our friendship at which point she brings out a cake for me i was shocked. We are so blessed to have each other

[@TheRatsCats]

My first wedding was big due to huge families on both sides. We only ended up about $1k in the hole. Not bad. Second ... Got married in a park with our friend the minister, her wife,y son, his buddy, my Mom and a dear friend. We went to dinner after. Perfect deal. Loved it.

[@JeffOfTheMountains]

I'm so thankful no one involved in my wedding was ever like this during the planning stages.

I’m feeling spoiled by my sisters wedding. Was bride and groom, parents, siblings. Lasted 20 minutes. Reception was more of an open house thing a few weeks later so no one had to stay the entire time.

[@thedeepfriar745]

Groomsmen just have to deal with the fact that they’re never going to see one of their best friends again after the wedding. It really kinda sucks I haven’t seen a friend who is like a brother to me in three years.

[@Dragoon1809]

Man, you think these events weren’t real but then you realize certain events can bring out the worst in people. Based of my own experience of two weddings in my adult life, I haven’t witness anything on this level of crazy. Only time when bad things happened was when my dad( a guest, not the groom) lost his car keys and tried to blame me for losing them despite him being the last person who physically had them in his possession. Thankfully, this was small scaled and he found them pretty quick in his briefcase where he had put them but forgot.

I still don't get it why the bachelorette parties have to be so expensive in the US. The bachelorette party of a friend of mine was less than 50 euros for each of the guests. No destination. If you want a fancy party - pay for it yourself!

[@lutchien]

Everytime I see one of these bridezilla compilations, I thank goodness for my baby sister, who is so calm and sweet and chill, and got even calmer and sweeter and chiller as the planning went along. People still say that this was the best wedding they ever been to. I mean, they spent most of their budget on lots of awesome food, but my sister's sweetness was like the best part

[@celticmomhere4430]

"Brid-a-zilla". ACTUALLY laughed out loud. :-)

[@MizJuli23]

Woman I was friends with acted like a total bridezilla. She decided to have her wedding in Mexico, fine. But when I told her I lost my job and may not be able to attend, she called the other bridesmaid flipping out over who would be her MOH if I didn't come. She also didn't even want to ask me to be her MOH because apparently I wasn't enthusiastic" enough when she texted me that she got engaged. Her fiance told her to ask me, since I was the one who set them up and I was the friend closest to her at that time. The other bridesmaid had a parent who was terminally ill. Instead of trying to be compassionate, the bride was on her case to buy her bridesmaid's dress. When the parent passed away, 3 weeks before the wedding the bride barely acknowledged it. The bride's MIL was also extremely rude to myself and the other bridesmaid during the planning of the bridal shower and wedding and at the wedding itself. Long story short, we stopped talked about a year and a half after the wedding.

[@Henry5623]

6:10 "Don't expect me to guess, then judge me for failing your expectations, and be too chicken crap to talk to me directly about it!" ...and THAT right there is what it feels like to be a man in a relationship ladies. You preach you want honesty and communication and then judge us for both. So we don't do either and then you still judge us. We aren't playing stupid when we say we don't know why you're mad at us because no matter what we do, you're mad at us. Couldn't help but laugh at that part of it where a woman experiences what it's like to be a man.

What an awful idea to have a wedding right after Christmas like that.

[@justheretowatch1733]

I knew a bride that wanted to take pre wedding photos. Not a big deal, the house is on 3 acres so very pretty. But the bridesmaids had gotten their hair, makeup and dresses on then it started to drizzle. Not enough to mess up anything if your walking to a car but would definitely mess up the proffesional beautician done makeup if you stand still. Not to mention hair. We got a few shots in anyway because we knew she would throw a fit regardless. But after a bit the girls where saying 'I'm not getting this stuff done again. We're going inside." This is 20 minutes before everyone has to leave. Definitely not enough time to fix hair and makeup. But the bride just didn't get why the pics she wanted was just not the priority.

[@crystalcoleman1985]

How to women like this exist? I had a laid back wedding at a chapel in Gatlinburg, Tennessee. We all enjoyed the wedding and had a vacation! (Granted, the family had a separate vacation from us, but we all had a great time!!!)

[@asileginger8223]

Friend of ten years. She got married. I was not invited. What makes it worse? She didn't even tell me she was getting married. And even worse? I didn't even know she had a boyfriend. How to make it even worse? All the girls were invited but me. All of them knew, but didn't tell me. A common friend told me that she thought I knew and was invited, she was surprised when she didn't see me at the wedding. Ps: I got to know she got married through instagram. Through a freaking photo. (she barely uses social media, so if she didn't talk, i just wouldn't know)

[@msmeowmeow5107]

If I ever get married, I just want my groom, mom (possibly dad, have seen him once 23 years), daughter, in-laws to be, and the officiant to be there. I just want to feel good and be in a spot that makes me happy (the mountains or forest), and there to be love.

[@Moo-2310]

I only want some family members and a few very close friends at the ceremony, then I'd have a fun, chill party in the evening with a lot more people. The spot would definitely have to be a flower garden in spring. (I love flowers and nature)

[@Macaronijonesss]

My ex--sister-in-law asked me and her brother, my now ex-husband, to be in her and her husbands wedding. Everyone was required to wear the same dresses, makeup pallet, and jewelry. We also all had to wear the same color shoes and she almost had everyone do their hair the same. She bought us the jewelry that someone custom made for her, the eyeshadow pallet, and then matching flip flops to wear after the wedding. She also asked me to take out or hide my nose rings. All of the dresses came from David's Bridal and were almost $200. I couldn't afford that.... When I told her that it was too expensive for me to spend on a Bridesmaid dress, she then told me that she still wanted me to help her with the wedding so I could be apart of it even if I couldn't be a bridesmaid. Their own mother bought my dress because she didn't want me to not be one. They were also wanting everyone to get the alterations done Davids, which they qouted me for what I needed done to be almost as much as the dress. I found somewhere to do it with amazing ratings and was local for $80.00.... THEN, to top it off, when and her brother got married, she told me that she thought wearing Converse to a wedding was trashy. (one of my closest friends, who was also a bridesmaid, was going to wear bright orange Converse. I told my ex that if his sister said anything to her about it that I was going to really hurt her feelings) (also, our wedding was very whimsical and fun. The colors were black & neon of any color). My MIL at the time also asked if I was going to cover or take out any of my piercings.... OH, and she said that my wedding couldn't be "super formal" because of the style dress I chose...

To change it up. Here is something wholesome. This happened in 2009. So, my cousin lied to me about being a flower girl. I was only nine when he went back to prison and left his wife to be. (To be honest, she dodged a bullet. As she had no record of drugs or anything. She called my mom in tears and then told us not to worry and live our lives. We lost contact, and I hope for the best with her.) So, now that I'm getting wed to a very sweet man. And I am keeping my promise to his niece to be a flower girl. And my oldest girl cousins will be brides maids.

She said she was waiting for me to get up. So I went to the bathroom and when I got back, she was in my bed. She had not waited for me to get up as such, just for me to get out of the bed.

My sister was a bridezilla, she wanted me to atend her idiotic beach wedding which involded me getting there on my own as a teenager. She did not even give me money for a taxi, she wanted me to take a bus there. I live in peru btw, buses here are NOT safe, the wedding was 3 hours away in a place I didn't know and I could easily have gotten lost. She had a car but preffered to take her in laws with her so they wouldn't have to drive there(they also had cars) I said F that, turned my phone off and went to a maid cafe. I met my wife there and we've been together 9 years. I've lost contact with my sister years ago because she's a manipulative B who lies about everything. I adore my wife.

[@RavennaRose928]

I'm letting my bridesmaids wear what they please. Same with guests. Wear whatever you feel comfortable in. Not gonna have uncomfortable dresses that don't fit right or shoes that hurt their feet. They are all very excited that they get to choose their own styles out of their closets. I'm not a picky person. Only thing I'm being a Bridezilla about is cellphones. No phones out during the ceremony. It will make the photos look tacky. But at the reception they can pull out their phones and take 5000 pictures if they want.

[@josephhurst4902]

Vote of No-Confidence wedding, I would have paid to see the parents face as she was being openly ditched by her entire bridal party. also wonder why the assaulted party didnt have her arrested for ripping the dress she was wearing off of her. counts as assault and battery, and distruction of private property, Bridesmaids dresses aren't cheep by any means.
