For the domineering Bridezilla...

...in need of bridesmaids. I present for discussion, the douchiest "Will You Be My Bridesmaid" cards on the internet:

There are some more normal and not horrifyingly nasty ones available from this seller, but I was perusing the Etsy wedding inspiration section and almost choked on my drink when I saw the preview of that first card. I hope these were just in case designs by the seller and not requests. Unreal.

    Yikes. Poor attempt to be funny.






    What differentiates an average host and a great host is anticipating unexpressed needs and wants of their guests.  Just because the want/need is not expressed, doesn't mean it wouldn't be appreciated.

    I could maybe, MAYBE, see giving something like that to my bestie, because we have a similar, juvenile, sense of humor. 

    But, I could also see something like this falling very, very, very flat. So you know. Know your audience or come across as princess douche.

    I like the "hold up my dress when I have to pee" one . . . . and might give that to one of my future BMs because we've had that conversation. . . . BUT - the rest of them??? nope.

    I won't lie, I probably would have gotten one of these for my MOH... And she would have been like, "are you fucking kidding me?" and it would be funny.

    My 2 besties would probably love the bitch for a day ones. F and I send each other a birthday slut card with a crown for our respective birthdays, it's falling apart since we started that tradition in college. G basically IS NeNe, so bitch is a term of endearment.

    I called them to tell them we got engaged, and (because we originally planned to get married in a year... that has changed) asked them individually if they would like to be a bridesmaid. No cards or fanfare were necessary.

    Bitch is also a term of endearment amongst my close lady friends. 

    All my BM's I asked either via text or FB message, cause thats how we normally communicate. If I used a card like this, I'd give it after I officially asked.  Cause who wants to hand a card over and then be told "No, I will not hold your dress so you can pee."

    I dunno, I kinda see those as being sarcastic and not to be taken seriously. I can actually imagine using these for my friends, but that's just our humor, even if it isn't great humor.

    Nope. Can't see myself buying that. Though I'd have considered the pee one for my MOH/sister because of how many times I had to help her pee on her wedding day.

    Are there pop-up invites for the AW Bridezilla in me?  When I ask, I want a spring to pop out with a sign that says "Wanna be my bitch, BITCH?"  Also, confetti.

    The peeing one is funny to me. Not that I'd ever actually make a big production out of asking my bridesmaids--I was dress shopping with my sister and when my mom started discussing things she'd be doing as my MOH she very sweetly hedged, saying, "Well, she hasn't officially asked me yet" as if assuming would be stepping on my toes. I laughed and said "OF COURSE I want you to be my maid of honor!" So yeah, no cards were necessary. Re: these particular cards, I never care for the type of humor that attempts to "skewer" traditional norms when those particular norms aren't actually dead. Like, if I joked that my sister can't look as pretty as I do on my wedding day (I mean, hypothetically, because why would I, because what?), it would obviously be a joke, but it wouldn't be a very good one given that too many seemingly normal people turn into nutjobs the second they start planning a wedding. It's all too, "hahaha, jokes and silliness. BUT NO REALLY YOU ARE MY BITCH DEAL WITH IT." Uncomfortable, yo. ETA I swear there were paragraphs. TK loves making me look all run-on.

    I've seen cards like that at a kitschy store near my home.  My friends know my sense of humor and we'd all find them funny. I didn't buy them though.
