59. The Color Of Royalty
There was a big issue with the wedding I was just MOH for. The color theme for the wedding was royal purple, lilac, and cream and all the bridesmaids had to wear royal purple colored dresses in a very specific 80s style – which you can probably imagine is quite difficult to find.
We all ordered our dresses (they were $14) when we found out that one of the bridesmaids couldn’t fit into any of the available sizes. She said she would try to lose weight as best she could and fit into the largest size by the wedding, but by then the dress was no longer available.
She tried to coordinate with the bride for a similar dress, but none that she found were exactly the same color. She ended up dropping out of the wedding entirely because the bride wasn’t satisfied after she’d bought dress number five.
You’d think people would be a little more sympathetic.
