Re: Ughhh so mad at my bridesmaids!!!!!!

  • Well I called my mom and she said she could help pay $25 for each bridesmaid. Is that better?
  • 25? I hope you mean 250. Otherwise...no.

    <div>OMG!  NOT $25!  Wow....what a great deal!  I wish that I was in YOUR wedding....so much....</div>
  • Dude, I know that $25 would TOTALLY make the difference of whether of not I could afford a $350 dress I'll only wear once.

  • If you want bridesMAIDS that do whatever you want, perhaps you should hire some people instead of putting your poor friends/family/whothefuckever through the hellish experience of being in your wedding.

  • Bahahaha this thread is awesome. And I have nothing constructive to add, other than this HAS to be MUD... there's no way someone who supposedly has posted here before doesn't know what a dollar dance, money tree, OR troll is and wouldn't know that posting about replacing bridesmaids, not asking about budgets, and talking about "its MY day so EVERYTHING I say goes, regardless of how ridiculous it is".

    But yeah, thanks for the entertainment, OP!

    Uhh no.
    1) To have the "too" at the end of that sentence you would need to be, you know, real.
    2) Disney is all well and good for a honeymoon, but I - unlike you apparently (if you are real) - kept my guests and bridal party in mind and planned a local ceremony and reception... and my BM's will be in GORGEOUS $75 dresses that they get to choose (after they all told me, privately, what their budget was).

    LMAO. Or not.

    ... they are shopping at a lovely bridal shop with affordable dresses that are exactly what I wanted and, unlike the atrocious things you picked out, my girls have all already said they'd (happily!) wear again.
  • You are being ridiculous to expect them to pay that much for a gown. My bridesmaids dresses were $175 but my bridesmaids only had to pay $75 as we covered the rest of the cost. We live in a tough economy right now and people have to save as much as they can and not spend $350 on a bridesmaids dress they are only going to get one use out of. Please reconsider your choice of dress or allow them to pick their own.

  • Yeah, my BM dresses were about $100, and all night everyone was commenting on how awesome they were and how you COULD actually wear them again.  Amazing.

    <div>...That, darlin', is the MO if you require specifics. And $350 is a crapload of money. AND if I were a BM, busy or not, I would damn well want to choose my own stuff. Perhaps you should have consulted with them before a blanket money demand.</div>
  • My four BMs' dresses ddin't come to $350 combined.  Dang.

    I'm just going to humor you right now, OP, despite the fact that I'm hoping that you're MUD.  If you haven't already, please ask your bridesmaids for a budget.  If it's less than the cost of the dress, consider subsidizing further or picking a new BM dress.  And please consider lurking on TK further to see how things go here.   And good luck with your wedding planning.

    ROTFLMAO - almost seriously, at this entire post. WHY did I have to be dealing with a fat, bloody lip from the dog last night?

    "OP," because I seriously doubt you are a real bride, that is one hideous dress. I wouldn't give you $35 for it. Good luck on finding those "replacement" bridesmaids...

    <div>Don't forget the part that she'll need an advance on her first few paycheques so that she can pay the "crazy woman" ahead of time!</div><div>

  • OMG ladies!!! I do not think it is bad if they go work at Bed Bath and Beyond. Then they can get a discount on a gift for me. Then its a win-win. They will save money and it will make up for it.
  • If one of my friends asked me to get a second job to pay for a dress, I would laugh at her and tell her to go fuuck yourself. 

    But I'm not friends with any crazy loons, so that would never happen.
