"My cousin works at a resort that hosts a lot of weddings in Port Douglas, Australia. She told me about THE most garbage bridezilla who set out rules for her bridesmaids — no getting engaged, no hair changing, no getting pregnant, etc. When one poor bridesmaid accidentally got pregnant and then miscarried about a week before the wedding, she told the bride she needed a procedure first to remove the miscarriage, and that she would still be in the wedding. Said bridezilla went absolutely OFF HER TREE as her rules about getting pregnant were 'violated,' and she forcefully coerced this girl (who obviously was terrified, and was also bleeding, spotting, and feeling very uncomfortable) to put off the procedure until after the wedding and still be in the wedding party".

"All because she wanted a 'perfect' day. The other bridesmaids didn’t find out about this until in between the ceremony and reception, when bridezilla was berating the poor bridesmaid for 'looking miserable' for the photos. All the bridesmaids then subtly up and left during the reception (before the speeches lol), all checked out of the resort, and left together." —KelpNougatCrunch

"I've been a wedding planner for 10 years, so I've got a TON of stories — I think this one is my all-time favorite, though. At a wedding last year, the best man, who was also the groom's brother, went on a beer run 30 minutes prior to the ceremony, crashed his truck on the side of the road, and was arrested for a DUI. Hence, we did the ceremony without him."

"A few hours later, he reappeared toward the end of dinner, and when I got him a bottle of water and some food and told him that his brother would still like for him to give the best man toast, he held his head low and said, 'I'll do whatever you need me to do.' He gave the toast, rambled for a bit, cried, and then his brother cut him off, gave him a hug, and we went on with the party." —aeholder

"Whoa, Nelly, do I have some stories from my five years as a bridal consultant at a popular, mid-budget chain. I recently had a bride who was perfectly nice, excited for her wedding, if a little picky (which is fine, if there's ever a time to be picky, it's shopping for a wedding dress). She was between two dresses, both fitted, but one with satin. Silk-satin fitted dresses show everything, making them (obviously) hard to wear. As she's walking out of the appointment, she cheerfully and casually says, 'I don't think I'll wind up going with the satin dress. I don't want my stomach to stick out the whole time...like yours is right now' and waves goodbye. Reader, WTF!" —callac
