    Oh good grief! Now my best friend, who I've been friends with for 20 years and who came with me to buy my dress (which is ivory) has announced she's coming in a white dress!

    Now, I know that she's the one who's going to look a bit foolish, and it's not like anyone will be paying her more attention than me, but really. And, bless her, she actually said on the phone "my friends told me I shouldn't wear white to a wedding, but I knew you wouldn't mind". SHEESH!

    (I don't mind enough to do anything about it, but I am a bit gobsmacked at the assumption!)

    :eek: oh no no no no no anyone turning up in white will have an unfortunate "accident" with a glass of red wine. or possible a can of coke.

    they will have been warned in the invites so its fair game :cool:

    i haven't actually decided if i'm joking yet

    This is a big no no :eek:

    I went to wedding earlier this month and 3 ladies were wearing white :o

    One "older" lady was wearing a white lace dress/mini dress with white high heels and she looked shocking i couldnt stop starring at her :rotfl:

    I would KILL her. And I am not the type to get worked up about stuff easily. :rotfl:

    Same. But then again I'm odd and OCD about colour schemes :D (I really need to get out of this thread :o)

  • I'm a bridezilla because one of my bridesmaid is having a boob job and is saying she doesn't want anyone to know and that she wont be able to get measured for quite a while till they have settled down. My wedding isn't till august but I wanted to get my dresses ordered in jan/feb

    Also i'm a tad jealous that what she as spent on that is most of my wedding budget which I am working my !!! off to save for and she will look amazing on the day and everyone will be talking about it.

    grrrrrr rant over!

    p.s I know i come across as bi*%h but i'm really a lovely person
  • I don't think you come across as a bi*%h daisyboo...seems like a reasonable response to me. I also think that if people are talking about her new acquisitions, it doesn't necessarily mean that they will be saying nice things! You will definately be the star of the show!

    I agree. The comments are unlikely to be flattering!!!! :o fake boobs never look good.

    Btw, the dress ordering timetable is a good excuse to 'sack' her as a BM if you really don't want her in the official photos :D *evil grin*

    Buy her a massive bolero that will cover them up :) Or a dress with a roll neck. Flatten and hide those new puppies!

    (It's far better to have happy looking bridesmaids than gurning jealous witches who'll spoil photos with a scowl - even though you'll be the only person looking at them - everyone else will be looking at the bride!!)
