What is your worst Bridezilla/Bad Wedding story?

Question

Well, my dear wedding people...from time to time I get tired of answering questions...so Here is a question from Kat:

What was your worst wedding story? It could be your own wedding, a wedding where you were in the bridal party, or even just a guest at someone else's wedding.

I'm looking for "Bridezilla" stories, or horrible Mother or Father of the Bride or Groom stories...maybe bad vendors, or bad behavior from guests...

What was the worst wedding moment, or worst wedding you've ever been to...and why?

Answer 1

Hi Kat! Great question. I can't wait to read the answers.

Ok, one of my best girl friends asked me to be in her wedding party as a Bride's Maid. But when she asked me, she also asked me to drop at least 20 lbs so her photos could look their best. Believe it or not, I agreed to try to do that. I must have had too much wine.

Well, that was just the beginning.

- She had me and the other girls running all over town on several occasions picking stuff up for her. While she sat at home!
- She would call us at all hours (late night or early morning)
- She once pitches a major fit at a wedding show when her mother told her a certain service was out if their budget. And I mean total crying and cursing melt down.
- The week before her wedding she began referring to herself as the Princess Bride and even asked us to call her the same. We all refused and she pouted.
- One of the original bride's maids found out she was pregnant and would be showing by the time the wedding came - so she was replaced! Might ruin the pictures you know.
- Oh and their were weekly scheduled "wedding meetings" we were all supposed to attend. She would lose it if we missed one.

This is only a small amount of her craziness...but it is more than enough. To be honest she was a drama queen prior to her wedding, but I had no idea the depth it could get too. We don't speak much now and I never did lose the weight. Haha to us both! LOL

There's a long story behind this, but I thought it better to give advice. Do you have a niece, nephew, cousin, etc. who is getting married in the near future and you want to contribute? It may sound fun, and it may be. But, all I can say is look before you leap. After going through what I went through, I have some advice for others on what could be in store for them. You may be expecting happy, joyous times, but instead you could get troubling, stressful times if you just jump in, blind.

Things I learned (the hard way):

1. Before you fork over any kind’a dough, assess the situation. Never assume you know your relatives. A sweet, young niece, for example, can overnight turn into a bridezilla, and you will be stuck dealing with her and all of the fallout. Take a HUGE look before you leap! Take time to assess the situation before you contribute significant $$ or time.

2. Don’t let your sister/MOB or brother/FOB, etc. charm, talk, terrorize, etc. you into biting off more than you can chew. Don’t feel YOU have to play hero. After all, it is not your daughter or son. If dad or mom of the bride was recently unemployed, for example, it is up to him/her to control the costs of the wedding. It is not up to you to play savior.

3. Don’t overpromise! At first, it will sound fun and exciting to be a part of the wedding, but you have no idea what you could be stepping into. This is a process that can take months, and your situation could quickly change. Do you really want to contribute time and money, etc. for this and this and this? Probably not. Pick one thing, or even better yet, contribute a set amount you feel you can reasonably afford, and step back and let the bride and/or groom and their parents work the rest out.

4. If you agree to do or focus on a piece, like Bridal Flowers, for example, be prepared to give up control. You may think it is your $$ so you should have at least some say, but your relative or soon-to-be could easily wind up being “Mr. Control Freak 2014.” At least be prepared for this possibility. Also, be prepared that not only will the bride and/or groom want their say, but all of the other relatives under the planet could and probably will feel entitled to have their say, even if it is neither their money nor design.

5. When and if you are ever in a position to hire a photographer, really, really watch having relatives, even so-called professional relatives, do photographs at the wedding. I have yet another recent example at my step-daughter’s wedding where her so-called professional brother took photographs. His mother told him to not take any photographs after the church ceremony, and he did whatever she said (forget the reception, I guess). The groom’s family was so upset by this, that they called a nearby photographer/acquaintance of theirs and had her come over right away to take more and professional photos. Again, DO NOT let relatives take photos period, whether they claim they are professional or not; their alliances unabashedly will be to their family members—they’ll do this without even thinking about it.

HA! I think I've got everyone beat!
My wedding went off without a hitch (no pun intended)! We rented the Table Rock Lodge in SC. It was so beautiful! We were going to get married on the back porch at 4pm, but it started raining just a I was about to walk out, so we moved everyone inside. But, even that wasn't that bad. After the wedding, the reception followed. We had it downstairs in the same lodge. We had a champagne toast, everything was wonderful. My new husband and I made our escape and headed to my grandma's house up the road where we opened our wedding presents, then left for our honeymoon. The second day of the honeymoon my mom calls and asks from my maid of honor's phone number, but she wouldn't tell me why. Later, I found out that one of the groomsmen and my maid of honor (my BEST FRIENDS) got caught having sex on the couch in the lodge by the PARK RANGERS when they came to lock up the building. The ranger called my mom and told her that they were going to charge her $300 to have the sofa cleaned, and then started adding on tons of other bs charges saying that there was a cracked window (that could have been there before we got there), one of the toilets was clogged (how was that our fault?) and that we forgot to move some furniture back to it's correct place and they were gonna call professional movers out. (to move a couch and rug 20 feet!) In the end, they tried to charge us almost $1000 in extra fees on top of the $800 we spent to rent the place. My husbands mom eventually had to get on the phone with the head supervisor of the park and be a complete b**** before they would back off. We ended up only paying for the broken window.
Then my mom called and told me that my dog had heartworms. So, the wedding was great, but the honeymoon was a little stressfull..:)

I'm MOH for my sister's upcoming wedding..and every step of the way she has been a horror:

I've done everything and more that she has asked for me to do, yet she yelled at me for "Not doing anything and never helping her" (meanwhile I've been spending nearly $2000 on her bridal shower) along with finding her wedding favors, offering to print out her invites, assembling her invites, going shopping with her, etc.

After she was complaining about wearing a strapless dress when she was bridesmaid, and after I showed her dresses that I liked (another thing she asked me to do) she decided to pick out a strapless dress for me to wear (even though I'm very busty and told her I would be uncomfortable in a strapless dress)

She told me to buy shoes that matched, I did, she said they weren't good and that I needed to return them and have a new pair of shoes dyed.

We also have weekly wedding meetings...which my job is not taking too lightly.

Oh, did I mention the other time she yelled at me and said I had "no interest" in her wedding? Yeah.....I'm SO ready for this wedding to be over.

Answer 9

Well, not married yet, and the planning for the October 6 wedding has gone wonderfully, except that last week I found out that the florist who I LOVED all their ideas, went bankrupt! CLosed the doors, no warning to anyone - not employees, not brides, not customers. And because they are bankrupt, no refunds, and no flowers!

Luckily, they hadn't deposited my check yet, so I stopped payment, and found a new florist with the date clear.

Answer 10

Too funny! I showed up for an old friend's wedding in the South with a beautiful, wooden wine bottle holder as a gift. On the gift card, I wrote something to the effect of "glad we are all grown up and can actually use one of these since we no longer drink wine out of the box" (our preferred beverage-of-choice in college. Unfortunately, what wine did they serve during the wedding reception, but Franzia (hey, at least it was red, right?!)
