Bridezilla Goes Viral For Her List Of 37 Absurd Wedding Rules
The bride started off with ten bridesmaids and ended up with only six.
A wedding is an incredibly emotional and memorable event. It's a time to celebrate love, after all.
But as lovely as weddings are, they also have a tendency to bring out the worst in some people. Brides, in particular, are renowned for turning into 'bridezillas' in the lead-up to their big day.
We've all heard stories about nightmare brides and their over-the-top demands. But one bride took her 'bridezilla' title to the extreme!
In the lead-up to her wedding, the bride in question compiled a list of 37 rules for her bridesmaids to follow. What's more, it was made abundantly clear that if any bridesmaid did not agree to abide by all of the rules, they would no longer be a part of the impending exchange of nuptials.
Well, as appealing as obeying a billion ridiculous demands sounds, it's no surprise that the bridesmaids started to drop out almost immediately. The bride started off with ten bridesmaids and ended up with only six.
From demanding that her bridesmaids "will not gain more than 3 kg" and will not "intentionally fall pregnant before the wedding" to barring colored contact lenses and "black drawn-on eyebrows," this bridezilla was brutally specific with her wants and "needs" for her special day.

I mean, okay, but what does she have against blondes?

Oh, so I'm allowed to miss it if I'm dead? How sweet!

To be fair, I think numbers 8 and 9 are pretty standard.

"I will not intentionally fall pregnant before the wedding."

Seven units exactly?

No kids allowed!

Sure, I'll just leave my kids with the dog. No biggie.

"I will not grow sensitive and angry with the bride because I understand that she has a bossy attitude."
Facebook
Look, I'll wear the hairstyle, but I'm not paying for the dress!
Facebook
Oh good, more things I have to pay for.
Facebook
No suggestions, please!
Facebook
"If I do not like anything listed, I will not sign the contract, and I will be replaced."
Facebook
It sounds to me like "everyone will be treated equally" badly!
Facebook
Okay, what's wrong with colored contact lenses?
Facebook
Well, alright, but I thought the bride was in charge of choosing the makeup anyway?
Facebook
$50 a month for the next 14 months? So now I'm paying $700 on top of every other thing you expect me to pay for?

What's your opinion on this bridezilla and her list? Do you think she's being utterly ridiculous with her demands, or is she entitled to be a brat because she's the bride?
Either way, a little bit of kindness goes a long way. There is always a considerate way to ask for things that don't include throwing demands at people.
