“you’re concerned” NOT “your concerned”!

I can’t believe I actually typed that. O.O

This surprises me in a very positive way.

If somebody is truly your best friend and you are getting married, the appearance of your friend should be irrelevant. No wonder it took this woman so long to finally get married, because she is an awful person.

I share your outrage at the bride, but let’s express it in fat-poz ways!

So basically, they go up to a size 24 or 26. And good luck finding any to try on in stores – most of the dresses are size 12 (aka size 8).

I vaguely remember hearing about this somewhere but I never actually read about it. This lady doesn’t deserve her friend. I’m glad Prudence handed her crap back to her, and I really hope her friend found out and kicked her snobby ass to the curb.

I have thought about who I would ask to be in my (non-existent as of yet) wedding and I always think it would be cool to have one person from each phase of my life. One of those friends is overweight and I honestly don’t know if I’d ask her, not because I care, but because I know *she’d* care. I know she’d stress out about the dress, about maybe going on a diet, about the pictures, about the flight, etc and she wouldn’t enjoy any of it. And because I know this, *I* wouldn’t be happy because I know she’s unhappy (and trust me, this goes on in our every day lives, not just special occasions). So, yes, there are some brides who are nasty and send letters like the one above, but on the flipside, there are some bridesmaids who would be happier to sit it out.

I also want to point out that I wouldn’t include some people because I know it would be a financial or time issue. I don’t want to make anyone miserable just to celebrate with me…

I’m going to be a bridesmaid in my college roommate’s wedding next winter and the ONLY discussion of size was when I quickly mentioned that whatever dress she chose needed to come in plus sizes. That’s really the only time it ever needs to come up.

And in the browsing of sites I’ve noticed most bridesmaid dresses come in a pretty impressive size range. Like, everywhere from 0 to 30 with adjustments for maternity or modesty available.

Thats it! At my next wedding I’m totally not going to let my thin bff be a part of it, because she might look better than me and everyone will be looking at her and not me!
