1. This bridezilla freaked out when one of her bridesmaids revealed she was pregnant - in an extremely hideous way

"I knew a woman who was a bridesmaid in a relatives wedding. She was married and had been trying to get pregnant for a while. Finally, her and her hubby got lucky and she conceived.

"The bridezilla got furious and kicked her out of the wedding because she would be pregnant in the pictures.

"3 months later, sadly, the woman miscarried. The bride called her with a response along the lines of 'good, well now you can be back in the wedding.'

"Needless to say, she did not even attend it."

  1. This bridezilla demanded all of her bridesmaids dye their hair brown so she could be the only blonde. Zoinks!

"This situation made me lose one of my good friends. My friend is getting married in October. We were friends for about 8 years. She asked me to be one of her bridesmaids and I happily obliged. Little did I know she was going to be big-headed ego bridezilla.

"She demanded that everyone wear these hideous dresses that we had to pay for. I was okay with it since they didn't cost that much. She also demanded that all the girls dye their hair because she could be the ONLY blonde one there.

"I have naturally blonde hair and I'm not going to dye it for a day. She got pissed at me that I wouldn't dye my hair and replaced me with a girl that she's known for years but recently become friends with. They used to talk crap behind each others backs."

  1. This bridezilla LITERALLY barricaded the doors when hungry guests tried to leave her wedding - awkward!

"I attended the wedding of a family friend's daughter, so didn't really know her. It was a nighttime reception, so probably from 6pm-11 or 12, the ceremony immediately preceding.

"When we went into the reception, we were expecting a buffet or something to be set up, but there was nothing. Later we found out that there was no food for the 120 guests, but rather a cheese spread, fruit platter, and vegetables with dip.

"After an hour, people were really hungry and some people started to leave because they were expecting to be fed and didn't want to stay.

"When the bride found out, she ran across the room in her dress and blocked the doors, screaming about how everyone is ruining her wedding and screaming "Bride's Day, Bride's Way!" It was such a scene that her father had to peel her off the door (don't know where the husband was, probably cowering) and people who didn't know her that well all left.

"I heard through the grapevine that she was inconsolable the entire night, got trashed and threw up (hopefully on her dress, but not sure).

"Oh well, Bride's Day, Bride's Way!"

  1. This bridezilla forced her bridesmaids play Cinderella - without the glass slippers...

"My best friend, who is normally very sweet and quiet, was quite rude when she got married.

"First she told me when I would be having her bridal shower (set a date without consulting me in any way) at my house, and what I would be serving. I was in the middle of my honours year of my bachelor degree in another city (15 hour drive away), and she set the date for right in the middle of exams.

"She also planned on making all sorts of things for her wedding to save money (aisle runner, centre pieces, arch, veil etc.). I came into town the night before the wedding, and she says to me: 'I didn't have time to get anything made, so I need you to do it.' I stayed up all night sewing and arranging flowers while she slept.

"It was in the middle of winter and when we arrived at the hall the floor hadn't been cleaned and was covered with salt stains. There was nothing to clean it with but a bucket and a cloth.

"So after staying up working all night, I had to clean a floor on my hands and knees. I was exhausted, sore and hated every minute of her wedding.

"I didn't talk to her for months after that."

  1. Now this bridezilla just sounds like an absolute nightmare…

"A bit late to the party, but I've been wanting to tell this story. My boyfriend's brother got married, and in the middle of the ceremony the groom's phone alarm went off in his pocket.

"The bride flipped out, interrupting the pastor, to reach into his pocket for his phone, that he had already silenced. She started bitching about how 'I can't believe you let your phone go off in the middle of our wedding.' Hands it to the maid of honour and says 'remind me to smash that later.' In the middle of her wedding.

S"he also rolled her eyes when the pastor was talking about God, chatted with the groom during the talk about keeping a marriage together, and during the vows part interrupted the pastor to say 'The father, the son, the holy spirit, yeah I know.'"

  1. And this bridezilla wouldn't even hold a bag!

"My sister was was self-centered asshole for about 6 months with her coup de gras being the wedding day. I know it was all nerves so I don't harbour any grudges, but ugh I wouldn't relive that day for all the money in the world.

"My strongest memory is her holding a bag of her crap and SCREAMING on the church steps 'Why am I holding something WILL SOMEONE EXPLAIN TO ME WHY I AM HOLDING SOMETHING ON MY F**KING WEDDING DAY??? Someone better take this out of my hands immediately'"

8. This bridezilla was ALL about preparing for the future…

"At my cousin's wedding, the bride's brother's girlfriend was a bridesmaid. The rest of the bridal party were either close friends or family.

"During the wedding pictures she made us take two of every one: one with the girlfriend and another exactly the same, except without the girlfriend. Bride was throwing a fit about it. She didn't want to look at the pictures years down the road in the case that they broke up.

"Yeah, I'm sure we'd all collectively forget the girlfriend was even there.

"The girlfriend played along, but everyone could tell she felt really upset about it."

  1. This bride ordered her hubby's best man to sort his hair situation out - despite the fact he suffered from alopecia

"I have alopecia, I was my brother's best man and the hag walked up to me a month before the wedding was supposed to happen and told me I had to get laser hair removal. On my scalp. Because she didn't want my patches in the pictures (even if you shave it right down you can still see the roots).

"She wanted me to spend $3000, semi-permanently remove all hair (I was told 20 years) from my head and risk some serious scaring (scalp isn't very common so not a lot of people know how to do it) because she doesn't like the way my disease looks. F**k you too!

"My brother broke it off a week before the wedding when he finally realized she was a crazy lady."

  1. This bridezilla was upset that her grandmother had died just before the wedding - for all the wrong reasons

"I had a friend that threw a temper tantrum, complete with screaming and foot stomping, because her grandmother had the audacity to die a few hours before her wedding. She said it would throw off the seating arrangements, because now there would be a big empty space.

"She is currently half way through her 2nd divorce."
