It’s nice to hear a happy ending, and I hope the “fat bridesmaid” realizes how valuable her true friends are.

It’s probably too much to hope that the bride realizes how appalling her behavior was and accepts responsibility with sincere apologies all around.

And I gotta say…if I were the groom, I’d be having some serious second thoughts here.

I think the fat bridesmaid, her friend, and any other ex-bridal-party member who would like to attend should have a private party on the wedding date. They can wear comfortable clothes, play their favorite music, eat something sloppy with their fingers (I’m thinking gigantic skewers of grilled vegetables, followed by chili dip with chips), and share this for dessert:

Wow, that bride is unbelievable!

And “hosebeast” is my new favorite insult.

Well-placed use of the phrase “psycho hosebeast” (of course, Wayne’s World references are ALWAYS appropriate). Plus, like miss kitten said, I am happy for the fat bridesmaid that got dumped. It has to feel good knowing that there are people who have your back, even if they aren’t actually your friend.

I hope that the bride realizes it was her behavior that caused people to leave her wedding party and that she maybe learned something from it. I don’t have high hopes about that part, but a girl can dream.

This is great! Wish more people are like her, sticking up for their principles.

the most IMPORTANT thing, in my mind, is how good the “too fat” bridesmaid has to feel, in being validated as a person who deserves to be treated well. having friends beside you is a really good thing. yay, and go EVERYONE who is holding this bridezilla up to the light and saying “your actions STINK.”

…..and it makes me REALLY glad that TheEngineer and i got married at the courthouse in texarkana, arkansas. ;)
