Shocked Bridesmaid Revealed Bridezilla Drove Everyone Crazy and Threw the Worst Right Before Ceremony
A wedding day is usually a happy and special time for couples, but it can also be stressful. Even the happiest ones can feel a bit overwhelmed. Sometimes, the bride, in particular, might get anxious and want everything to be just perfect. But sometimes bride can really go crazy and turn all the vent into horror movie.
A woman was shocked by her friend’s wedding.
A woman has recently come to Reddit to tell an absolutely crazy story about her friend, who managed to not only spoil her wedding day, but turned the lives of some people around into a total mess.
She wrote that her friend Dana, 29, was supposed to be getting married this past Sunday. The wedding got cancelled and things had gotten totally insane.
Dana was getting married to Josh, 32. She’s still in college with the OP and asked a few friends from college, OP included, to be her bridal party. Now, from the start, this wedding has been a disaster. The woman was going to just point out a few of the crazy stuff they dealt with.
The bride turned her own wedding preparation into a complete mess.
The woman listed the most appalling and crazy things that her friend did. She wrote," She refused to invite my best friend, who she’s supposedly good friends with, because she thinks we’re gay. We’re not.«
She continues, «She had us go to the dress fitting and then demanded each of us pay $2000 each for our dresses. Apparently she had a specific style she wanted. I can afford it, but I won’t buy a 2k dress for one event. Some of the girls in the bridal party don’t have that flexibility with money.»
The woman revealed that the groom, Josh, couldn’t invite any single females that were not blood relatives of him. So if he had any female friends, they were axed.
Dana also tried to make people cancel their holidays with their families to instead go with her to a destination bachelorette party. The woman wrote, «I work full-time even during holidays, so I told her that was not happening. More of the bridesmaids said similar things, and she dropped it.»
The worst part happened right on the wedding day.
The whole day, the bride had constant outbursts. Eventually, the OP had her make up and hair done, then the bride asked for a little bit of time alone to ’decompress’ from the stress. They didn’t even fight it, you could not see a group of women runs faster away.
The wedding was starting in thirty minutes, so they figured she would be fine alone for that little. The OP spent those thirty minutes just sitting in the chapel with her phone. It had to be about five minutes before the start of the wedding when MoH came over to tell them the wedding was cancelled. The OP asked her what happened.
It turned out Dana was caught having an affair with Josh’s uncle in the room. Josh caught them.
Apparently and rightfully, Josh called off the wedding, told off his uncle, and has since left with his mates. The woman confessed that she feels so bad for him, because he’s an absolute gem of a man.
He apparently also told Dana and her parents that she will be paying the cancellation fees. According to MoH, Dana’s father told her in front of everyone that she was paying it on her own.
Then the woman wrote, «I thought that was the end of it. I made the choice to separate myself from this mess. Until I got a call from Dana, not even an hour ago, demanding $5,000 to help pay her cancellation fees. According to Dana, it was our duty as the bridal party to pay her cancellation fees. I obviously told her no and that she might as well lose my number. I am never speaking to this woman again. This has been pretty much the reaction of all bridesmaids and the MoH.»
People were shocked and shared in comments their stories.
- I bet everyone around Josh was telling him that «she is just stressed out because she wants everything to go perfectly» etc. It’s all too common for people to give bridezillas way too much benefit of the doubt due to «wedding stress» — and many bridezillas know it and take full advantage. Personally I think anyone who cannot handle having wedding stress without turning into a total harpy is not ready to be married. If they have a legit anxiety issue, then they should recognize it, be mature and scale things back until they can keep their act together. © Each_Uisge / Reddit
- I had a friend who dated a woman like this. We all hated her. Mostly, we hated how the two of them acted when they were together. They were self-destructive. When they broke up, I hugged him and told him I was sorry while cheering to myself behind his back. I was sorry he was sad, but I have never been more excited about a breakup in my life. © SidewaysTugboat / Reddit
- When my ex broke up with me because, I quote «I’m a bad and selfish person because I spend too much time hospitalized, I have a chronic illness, instead of being with him», my mom came shouting at the top of her lungs, «Finally!». I think that’s nothing compared with what MoH probably did for her baby bro. © KawaiKuroNeko / Reddit
