Weddings- Oh The Hypocrisy

I’m sure many of you have seen the TV show Bridezillas.

Well I’d just like to reflect on the rampant hypocrisy I see most times when it comes to weddings.

It’s the bride’s day, right?

Right.

4 out of 5 bridesmaids will bitch about how much it costs to be a bridesmaid. Bridesmaids will bitch about how they would have picked out less expensive bridesmaid’s dresses and shoes. They will bitch about the pressure that the bride has put on them to throw the ultimate bachelorette party. They will bitch about the bride wanting them to do ridiculous amounts of preparation and how much the bridal shower cost them.

Then……………..These Same Bridesmaids………………Become…………….. Brides-To-Be.

And Guess what?

The Brides-to-be pick out expensive bridesmaid dresses and shoes for their friends to buy. They will pressure their bridesmaids to throw the ultimate bachelorette party. They will bitch about the bridesmaids not wanting to do ridiculous amounts of preparation for the wedding, and they will want a fancy expensive bridal shower.

Dont Be This Bride
Don't Be This Bride

So bridesmaids- either suck it up and be helpful and fun and enjoy the experience and honor of being selected as a bridesmaid or kindly say you’d rather be left out.

Brides- remember the amount of positive energy and effort you put forth for your friends or relatives weddings that you were part of and try not to be a huge pain in the ass.

Don’t be the person that bitches about having to travel for someone else’s wedding or pay a ton of money for all that goes along with being involved in a wedding and then when it’s your turn to get married make everyone else do exactly what you bitched about all those years.
