Bride to dump best friend who refuses to lose weight from wedding

She doesn't fit with her ideal for her big day

Many women dream of their wedding day from being a young girl and plan it out in minute details.

Some become so consumed with it being perfect they transform into bridezillas.

But one woman has really taken things to the extreme, trying to control the appearance of her bridesmaids.

And she is prepared to scrap one of her friends from being in her bridal party because she’s refusing to lose weight.

Yes, you read that right.

Another friend of the bride-t0-be shared the sorry sage on social site reddit.

“A friend of mine who asked me this question: she is getting married soon and wants a friend of 10 years to be included in the photos.

“However, this friend wants all her bridesmaids to actively lose weight in the months leading up to the photos, so that they can all look fit.

“This woman’s best friend refuses to exercise and continues to lead a very unhealthy lifestyle.

“My friend wants to remove her own bridesmaid on the grounds that she refused to lead a healthier life and exercise.

“Is she the [bleep]?”

Pretty amazing that this woman has a man that wants to marry her and multiple friends, right?

General concensus among the reddit thread users was that this attitude was indeed very out of order.

A shocked poster wrote: “Your friend is not really a friend. If you’re saying to someone I’d like to share my day with you, but only if you look like this and live this lifestyle…

“I understand wanting to look and feel your best, but when you start on someone else…

“Maybe your friend should just focus on being a better person, or she’s gonna be able to plan a few more weddings for herself.”

A second said: “I am trying to lose weight, but if someone told me to lose weight in order to be in the wedding/wedding photos, I would definitely end that friendship.”

One reasoned: “It’s fine to have certain grooming standards, and want them to dress a certain way, wear their hair a certain way, even have guidelines about makeup so everyone looks their best and there’s some sense of uniformity, but you gotta let people have whatever bodies they have.”
