    Here was my favorite part: "The world record for the number of bridesmaids is Jill Stapleton, who was accompanied by 110 bridesmaids when she tied the knot in Ohio, in June 2010."

    I don't even KNOW 110 people - 110 women - that I'd want as bridesmaids!!!

    That is ridic.  Also, that picture looks hideous with all the different colors clashing.  Those red plaid dresses stand out like whoa.

    That cracked me up! How much of a slap in the face is it to have 30 bridesmaids and you and someone else are the 2nd stringers.

    What a nut. I don't have that many people I could even consider putting in a bridal party...

    I had to look at that picture for several minutes before I could even find the bride hidden amongst all the bridesmaids. Sheesh.

    I'm only having 1 bridesmaid/maid of honor. I was thinking two, but FI's family is having to fly in for the wedding, and we're unsure how many people are going to be able to make it.

    Wow. I really only have 1 close friend. Also, did anyone else notice that some of them were wearing tiaras? For some reason I found that slightly creepy. Do think they were somehow more important than the non-tiara wearing bridesmaids?
