3 bridal horror stories that are making us cringe so hard right now

Olivia Hayes

We’ve all known a bride or two that have spiralled out of control on the run up to their wedding day.

Whether they go full-on bridezilla or become uber emotional in the days before they say ‘I do’, some brides are a force to be reckoned with.

But these horror stories that we found on Reddit have us completely cringing.

1. #Hairgate

“At a wedding I went to the bride replaced a bridesmaid of hers at the last minute because she dyed her hair a slightly lighter brown the night before. Apparently it didn’t match the dress, which was bright pink.”

 

2. No food?

“When we went into the reception, we were expecting a buffet or something to be set up, but there was nothing. Later we found out that there was no food for the 120 guests, but rather a cheese spread, fruit platter, and vegetables with dip.

“After an hour, people were really hungry and some people started to leave because they were expecting to be fed and didn’t want to stay.

“When the bride found out, she ran across the room in her dress and blocked the doors, screaming about how everyone is ruining her wedding and screaming “Bride’s Day, Bride’s Way!” It was such a scene that her father had to peel her off the door (don’t know where the husband was, probably cowering) and people who didn’t know her that well all left.

“I heard through the grapevine that she was inconsolable the entire night, got trashed and threw up (hopefully on her dress, but not sure).”

 

3. Tough mudder

“She demanded that everyone wear these hideous dresses that we had to pay for. I was okay with it since they didn’t cost that much. She also demanded that all the girls dye their hair because she could be the ONLY blonde one there. I have naturally blonde hair and I’m not going to dye it for a day.

“She got pissed at me that I wouldn’t dye my hair and replaced me with a girl that shes known for years but recently become friends with. They used to talk crap behind each others backs.

“Next she had to nerve to ask everyone who wasn’t in her bridal party to pay 80$ per guest (160$ for me and my boyfriend) for food. She’s having a buffet of BBQ. She also expected a present that was valued above 50$.

“She sent all of this via Facebook. I sent her a message back and told her I would either pay for the food or a present and for her to choose. I got a hard copy invite recently and realized that the date was the same date my boyfriend is doing Tough Mudder competition. I chose that over her wedding.”
