People post things in these groups that make me roll my eyes pretty frequently but I decided to reply to one for the first time. A woman is trying to buy robes for her BMs and wants to get them as cheap as possible. Another member is trying to help her and said she got hers for less than $35/piece and offered to help her look elsewhere. The original woman just keeps replying "Thanks, I'm going to keep looking elsewhere" (it was a lot weirder/funnier reading it because the member was trying to help her). I told her Amazon is selling silk robes pretty cheap for her and her BMs but that if she is getting these as her BM gifts she should think about maybe getting them a $25 gift card or something instead- not only would this be cheaper but not everyone likes robes. So now I'm just sitting here preparing to get torn a new one for the sake of "WON'T SOMEONE THINK OF THE PICTURES" and probably a few lines about what brideslavesmaids are really for.
I wonder if this woman (or any of the other users we get on here concerned about robes) will open her wedding album, look at the pictures of her and her BMs getting ready and think to herself, "Ahh. I'm so glad I forced them into matching robes. We truly look Pinterest-perfect" and wipe a happy tear from her eyes.
Please tell me some of you guys are members of groups like these because I'm sure you all have a better story than me. Or hell, tell me about a weird bridesmaid gift you received. Or tell me about what you're wearing/wore getting ready for the wedding. Or talk to me about cheese.
