People Share The Wild Ways Bridezillas Have Ruined Their Own Weddings

It’s understandable that people want the most special day in their lives to go exactly according to plan, and sometimes it’s that very feeling of wanting everything to be completely perfect at all costs that turns a lovely bride into a Bridezilla.

Other times, it is the lack of that feeling that causes a guest or family member to not take the day seriously enough. Maybe at times a wedding planner or two even undermined a bride’s grand plan—or vice versa.

No matter who the culprit was or what the cause was, here are 42 wild and unbelievable stories about people who turned the big day into a big nightmare.


42. This One Leaves Me Speechless

I went to a wedding where it was actually a rule that guests weren’t allowed to talk directly to the bride. Her mom and maid of honor were the only ones allowed to.

41. Room for One More?

I was helping decorate a wedding when the bride came storming in and literally threw a chair through a window. She was pissed that there had been one chair extra in the back of the room...

40. Having a Cow Over Cutlery

I’m a caterer. One time, the mother of the bride found a single spot on a single knife on a single setting. She demanded that the entire $60,000 reception be free. Luckily, she was not the one writing the check, so she was shot down pretty quickly.

Still, there was much rage.

39. Delegator

This is a story of a groomzilla. The bride would set out a list of tasks for him to complete. Then, the second she was out of earshot, he'd turn to one of the planners and say, "You heard her. Get it done."

He was also just generally useless, coming to meetings late, always getting drunk with his groomsmen and expecting his bride handle all the work herself.
