Did anyone else read the Yahoo News story on brides email?

I read it, and was absolutely disgusted. She's the reason why women are looked at as crazy Bridezillas during their weddings. Her demands were totally unrealistic! I can't believe someone would be so heartless and inconsiderate towards other human beings like that. "You must come to all parties and gatherings. If you don't, I'm sorry, but I can't have you in my wedding. You will invited as a guest." LAME. I would NEVER kick one of my girls out because they missed a party!

Seriously, I really hope her wedding blows up in her face and that all the girls quit. That still wouldn't be the max that she deserved, but it would be a start...I also can't help but feel badly for the poor guy that's about to be her hubby...GAH!

Well, if she owns her own jet, and so do the bridesmaids, then fine, a jet setter would be able to participate, and since they do not work for a living, taking the time off would be no problem.

But not your average person.

Hey,when she gets all negatives in response, she will wake up to the point that her friends are either not able to afford the time and/ or the money to do these things.

I would be declining. And you are right, this is where the term Bridesilla partially anyway came from. the rest is of course, the screaming bride who argues with everyone.

It is nice that the bridal party can help out with shopping and brain storming, but enough is enough.

A bride who does these things better pick all already married bridesmaids, because payback for all of it would be a you know what! LOL.

So what is with all the plane hopping? Get more presents that way? Hit up the The relatives in conneticut, might be somebody in Vegas or Vail, too.

Yes I just read it, I was shocked and disgusted. What an entitled b-word, seriously. She is the epitome of what's wrong with the wedding industry. Thankfully only a small amount of women are actually that insane, but it does make women look bad. I agree that I hope ALL her bridesmaids drop out. She obviously is selfish, and has no respect for anyone else.

You know what bugs me the most about stories like that? Every time yahoo runs one of them, they manage to plug theknot.com forums, as if they aren't a cesspool to be avoided at all costs! They mentioned how people in those forums are asking if this should be a newsletter, or do they have a meeting to delegate duties blah blah.

So this gradual internet thing occurs where some people actually start believing it's important to delegate the jobs and financial demands early and often.

Anyway, the responses the person wrote in there cracked me up!

I read it and was beyond appalled like the true nerve of some people. Weddings that are suppose to be joyful event celebrated with family and friends now has become all about glitz and glamour and getting the most expensive dress of cake and have lost their true meaning. I;m glad that One of the bridesmaids too time to express her true feelings to the bride about her lack of class and consideration for her bridesmaid and other people in regards to her wedding

I saw that and I was floored. I have been a bridesmaid for a difficult bride but never that bad. I think a lot of people believe that because it is "their" day (and it is) that they don't have to take anyone else into consideration. I would opt out immediately if I received something like that and then probably forward it to all my friends just like that bridesmaid did!!

LOL a friend sent me that as well. Wonder what the bride is thinking/saying now that it's all over facebook/news sites etc. Hopefully she is getting the hint that she is bat-sh** crazy.

My favorite part was when she told them if they can't afford to pitch in for the shower/bachelorette/buy their dresses that she doesn't have time for that and they would be kicked out.

Unreal.

I have the feeling that lots of things are going to go badly for her in the course of planning her "epic" wedding. By the time her wedding rolls around, she'll be mighty lucky if any of those 10 women even attends, or if anyone even cares at all and they're just thankful it's all over.

My niece sent it to me - I can so believe a bride would be like that - I just want to know how many of the 10 opted out?

P.S. I just can't figure where she's getting her money for such an extravaganza. She can't be too successful herself, because she certainly could barely conjugate a verb properly, nor did she ever use the correct "you're". Daddy must be loaded.

yes and I read the response letter one of her bride's maids, I mean FORMER bride's maid sent to her-got a good laugh out of it. Of course with a bride like that the sarcasm would completely go over her head and being self involved, self indulgent, and clueless she wouldn't 'understand why' all the ruffled feathers.....wonder how many stepped down from the 'honor' after that letter...hopefully all of them.

if I had pulled one fraction of the bull **** most of today's brides pull with their weddings my parents would have pinned my ears back and drop kicked me into next week but then I was raised with MANNERS, a concept that seems to be old fashioned- today it's cool to act as if one was raised in a barn yarn & can only conduct oneself in a crass and uncouth way....doesn't mean those of us who KNOW the social graces have to put up with such nonsense.
