Bride claims pregnant bridesmaid ‘owes her another wedding day’ for ‘upstaging’ her

The woman believes her friend owes her another wedding

A bride has claimed her heavily pregnant bridesmaid “upstaged” her on her wedding day.

Taking to Reddit to vent, the woman told fellow users she felt her big day was ruined because “all eyes were on her”.

The woman wrote: “We had six people on each side of the bridal party. When I got engaged, most of the bridesmaid were single, including [friend’s name], the star of this story.

“I just wanted to give the two partnered bridesmaids plus ones, [friend’s name] seemed offended by this, because my wedding was then years off.

“Eventually got pushed by my mother to give all of them plus ones. [Friend’s name] married four months before my wedding at two months pregnant.

“She brought her new husband as a plus one and convinced one of the other bridesmaids to take her friend as hers (which she knew we didn’t like him).”

She continued: “[Friend’s name] was hugely pregnant, and didn’t refrain from showing it off. We’re both fairly young (25) and in my husband’s culture, getting pregnant before late 20s/30s, married or not, is basically a teenage pregnancy and drew attention.

“When [friend’s name and her husband] got up to dance, all eyes were on them.

“[Friend’s name]’s friend ended up hooking up with my brother, outing him as gay and causing a huge scandal.

“I ended up leaving midway through the reception in tears, and never attended the next morning’s brunch. I can’t even look at the pictures without crying and desperately want a do-over.”

The woman said she spent £30,000 on her special day and believes her friend owes her another wedding.

She added: “I’m not bridezilla. But this was beyond the pale. It felt like a celebration of [friend’s name]’s marriage.

“I’m sorry but I put so much planning, effort, and money into this while someone that got pregnant without a through and married spur the moment reaped the benefits.

“I honestly feel like [friend’s name] owes me a wedding and did all of this for revenge for me offending her years ago.”

People rushed to comment on the post, with many slamming the bride.

One person said: “It’s not Anna’s fault she decided to live her life. Your planning spanned three years without any consideration or expectation of possible changes within the people involved. You are 100% a bridezilla.”
