Do you know a Bridezilla?

One Reddit user has exposed her bride-to-be friend for some ridiculous rules that were handed to her as she prepared to act as a bridesmaid for the big day.

The original poster @justasianenough wasn't even expecting to be asked, saying she wasn't that close with the bride.

"When she asked me to be bridesmaid I said “I’d love to, but I probably can’t do much to help/be at most of the things before the wedding.” She said it wouldn’t be a problem, she only needed me because her fiancé has 6 brothers and his best friend is best man, so there’s 7 groomsmen and “you’re pretty, but not enough that anyone will look at you.”

Yikes.

That exchange would be enough to put anyone off wanting to be a part of the bride's big day, but just to add insult to injury, here are the rules all of the bridesmaids were expected to follow:

1. No tattoos. ALL tattoos MUST be COVERED. No exceptions.
2. Nails must be short like #15 and MUST be Essie Ballet Slipper pink. I WILL KNOW IF IT IS NOT BALLET SLIPPER.
3. No glasses. If you wear them you MUST get contacts or you can just do without for the day.
4. No tanning/spray tanning. I should be the only sun kissed goddess on my big day.
5. No long hair. If you have long hair you must cut it shorter than mine. I expect everyone to wear their hair down for the wedding and want a uniform look. If your hair looks like mine I expect you to color it a different shade for the wedding. Send pictures for approval before cutting/dying.
6. Everyone needs to buy their own dress. This is the one you need to buy. It’s affordable, so don’t act like I’m crazy for saying you have to pay for it. Also, you MUST wear a strapless bra. I don’t want to see any nipples or the weird lumps from nipple covers.
7. I expect everyone to lose weight and actually LOOK GOOD for my day. For some of you that means 20-30lbs, this isn’t mean, it’s true.
8. DO NOT GET PREGNANT. IF YOU ARE PREGNANT YOU WILL BE UNINVITED. This is the ultimate betrayal. You should want everyone to focus on me for my day and we all know pregnant people steal all the attention.
9. If you are planning to get engaged you must wait until AFTER the wedding. We all know engagements still attention too!
10. Mandatory events you must attend: bachelorette week, bridal shower, rehearsal dinner, hair/makeup test run, wedding dress shopping, and morning after brunch. You’ll be paying for bachelorette weekend, hair/makeup test run, and hair/makeup for day of.
11. I expect everyone to buy bride squad swimsuits and robes.
12. Bachelorette week will be sometime in March 2022. Start saving now, we’re going to be going to a resort in Mexico! If you don’t have a passport you have to figure that out ASAP. What’s the point in having bridesmaids if they won’t hold my hair when I’m sick in Mexico?!
13. If you have issues with anything on my list you can suck it up or you can drop out now. I can replace you no problem, so don’t worry, I won’t be too mad. Just don’t expect an invitation to my wedding! If you can’t be there for me with all of this, you shouldn’t be there on my special day!

Needless to say, the original poster declined the invite.
