37. Teen wedding
I was the maid of honor for my friend who was 19 and a college freshman. We all had no money. She asked the other bridesmaids (4) and me to come to her city for the whole week before the wedding to help her get things ready.
We decided to plan her bachelorette party with her sister during this time. The bride got mad at me for spending an hour with her sister planning the party. Apparently every hour of my time that week belonged to the bride. We had to buy $150 dresses, and $100 shoes and then pay $70 to have the shoes professionally dyed.
She was unhappy with almost everything we did and saved all the homemade decorations until the last minute. During the reception, she took her first birth control pill, claiming she didn’t want to get pregnant. I told her that she needed to start taking those at least a few weeks before the honeymoon if she wanted them to be effective, so I asked one of the guests (a friend of mine) to go buy her protection for their wedding night.
The lack of planning, lack of communication, and lack of consideration for our budgets and time made her a BRIDEZILLA. Also, they divorced after 2 years, and the bride never bothered to change her name.
