The micromanaging mom
I was maid of honor. I planned a modest bridal shower since the bride specified that she didn’t want anything too extravagant.
Then one day I get a message from her mother, saying how rude it was that I didn’t invite her extended family. She then invited about 12 extra people.
I was kind of annoyed, but whatever. I let her know that it was going to cost about $25 per person.
She then sends me a long Facebook message, saying that I was a horrible maid of honor because I wasn’t footing the bill for everyone.
I explained that I was still a university student, and it just wasn’t within my means. She wouldn’t cut me a break, saying that I “didn’t know basic etiquette.”
It was such a nightmare, I never want to be a bridesmaid ever again.
