30 Out-Of-Touch Brides Whose Expectations And Requirements From Others Deserve To Be Laughed At
Every bride wants the perfect wedding: starting from the guest list and the x-tiered cake to the gorgeous venue and the magical atmosphere. However, real-life isn’t perfect and there are no perfect weddings. Far from it! But if you demand perfection, then you’ve got to be the perfect bride to all of your guests and bridesmaids, too.
Unfortunately, the harsh truth is that not all brides are wholesome, joyful, and loving—some have got plenty of entitlement to go around that’s making some guests wonder whether to skip the happy occasion altogether. We’re not talking about your regular “we prefer wine over flowers” deal. Oh no! It’s the kind of entitlement and lists of demands that you’re likely to see on the legendary ‘Choosing Beggars’ subreddit.
With wedding season in full swing, you’re likely to get invited to a wedding or two this summer. So here’s a list of posts made by entitled brides that will make you glad that your loved ones and friends are nowhere near as bad. Remember to upvote the pics that you think should to act as an example of what to avoid doing in life and let us know about the biggest bridezillas you’ve ever encountered in your lives, dear Pandas.
Anna and Sarah from The Wedding Society shared with Bored Panda that the pandemic has shifted some wedding trends away from materialism and toward a different way to celebrate the happy day. “We're all being forced to reinvent what a wedding looks like and often now that means toned down, simplified and meaningful. Honestly, if people are looking to go with the trend of a big, gaudy, expensive wedding, that boat has well and truly sailed,” they said. Read on for the rest of the interview.

“The new trend that we're constantly seeing (and which we believe is here to stay) is having a day that is filled with meaning and feeling, rather than things,” Anna and Sarah pointed out to Bored Panda that current trends show people moving away from the things we’ve read in this list.
The wedding experts also shared with me their wisdom on how to approach situations where the happy couple might have very specific demands of their guests.

“As a guest, if you're invited to a wedding where there is a specific code of conduct, dress, or gift, you're ultimately going to have to respect what is being asked of you or decline to attend,” they said. However, there is a ‘but.’
“If the marrying couple are close enough to you, you should feel comfortable being honest in a kind way as to your reasons. And if the couple are the people that you know and love, they'll understand,” Anna and Sarah noted that your relationship with the couple really does count for something.

Bride Demands 30k
During an earlier interview, Anna and Sarah from The Wedding Society went into detail about the various aspects of weddings and perfection with me. They put it very simply: instead of focusing on all of the tiny details and trying to control everything, you should shine the spotlight on the marriage itself. Because that’s all that really matters.
“Trust us—you're only going to truly enjoy the day if you're focusing on what matters—the marriage. Everything else is just details,” they told Bored Panda earlier.

The duo from The Wedding Society suggested that brides shouldn’t obsess over a single thing, even one as important as a wedding dress. “The concept of a ‘perfect wedding dress’ really only matters deeply to those who are probably focusing on the wrong thing,” they said that we should all step back, reevaluate the situation, and remember what’s truly valuable here.

I was shocked at all of the things I was supposed to care about re: my bridesmaids. We bought a bolt of fabric, and I told them all to have made whatever style dress they felt comfortable in, as long as it was calf-length or longer. Hair? Whatever they wanted. Makeup? Whatever they wanted. Shoes? Whatever they were most comfortable in. Jewelry? Nails? Whatever they liked. I had so many vendors and older family members make comments about how the photographs wouldn't be "uniform" or "cohesive" if one had an updo and the other had a shoulder-length bob. Funny, but I was less concerned about "uniform" pictures and more concerned that people not be effing miserable. I can't believe people micromanage bridesmaids toenails. WHO IS LOOKING AT THAT?!

A Lifetime Opportunity: Wedding Party With A Contract
“There are literally thousands of incredible dresses directly available to you—it's almost a physical impossibility for only one to be right for you and, if that's how you're feeling, it's probably worth stepping back, taking a deep breath, and re-shifting your priorities,” they said. Similarly, focusing on gifts isn’t the way to go either because it takes away the focus from the celebration of love and shifts it towards material things and social status.

Beggar Bride Asks Stranger To Be Bridesmaid Because She Gives Expensive Gifts - From Wedding Shaming Fb Page
According to Anna and Sarah, too many people are “caught up in the party and the image” because they want to impress their social circles. Letting go of the need to impress takes a lot of stress off your shoulders and leaves more time to spend with the people that are supposed to mean the most to us. Entitlement and arrogance serve no one, especially not the person using both as a way to try and get the ‘perfect’ wedding.

Having your dream wedding planned since you were a kid does not validate fat shaming. There is no justification for it under any circumstance. It is rude. It is insensitive. And it most certainly is offensive. You should be ashamed of yourself.

Cb Bride To Be Complaining That Her Fiance Proposed To Her With His Grandmother's Diamond Instead Of The 'Blingy Ring' She 'Always Wanted'
Samantha Lomb 3 years ago (edited)
In fairness if you ask what she wants and the get something completely different I can see being disappointed. Plus it shows he didn't listen to her and instead sorta foisted his and his family's choice on her. I would be annoyed to be asked and then completely ignored and pressured into something I didn't want. 10 years for a proposal likely also indicates other problems too

This all reminds me of a "friend" bridezilla who decided that she would announce my holiday house as party area after her wedding WITHOUT even telling me first! The house is very old but has a huge garden, therefore she wanted to party there - which would have been okay by me if she at least asked first. When I confronted her with her random announcement, ready to tell her she could party there but should at least consult me first because the randomness confused me, she literally demanded me to renovate my holiday house because it wasn't "classy" enough for her wedding party (I told her by that time she could use the garden, but not the house, that's my place, there's a lot of fragile ancient things I inherited from my grandparents and great grandparents, and I don't want strangers to party in there), and then told me I'd need to give my dogs and cats for fking adoption because my "fight dogs" could scare the guests, and the cats might "steal" the attention from her. I told her she could celebrate her wedding party elsewhere and told her she's a ridiculous greedy witch. Needless to say we aren't friends anymore, and I'm glad about it.
