My Maid of Honor Started Acting Like It Was Her Wedding Too!
Hello Everyone💗
I’m back again with another reaction-style blog post.
I’ll probably link it below if you want to read it. It was actually my first reaction-style post, so it was pretty short.
Anyway, today we’re stepping right into the bridesmaid territory.
And I feel like the next couple of reaction blog posts will still be in bride/bridesmaid, because there's always drama in that area.
.
.
.
But this particular story is about a bride and her maid of honor and yeah ...the whole situation is alot.
I broke everything down into little chunks/screenshots, and under each one I’ll basically be reacting and giving my commentary as we go along.
So yeah...let’s get into it.
1st Screenshot.
This might sound a bit unnecessary, but my heart goes out to brides who are so scared of being labeled a “bridezilla”.
Like, I understand.
We’ve all seen those stories online or heard things in real life about brides being “too much” or “difficult,” so naturally you don’t want to be that person.
But I don’t like how that label gets thrown around so casually, because it creates this pressure where you feel like you can’t even speak up for yourself ...especially when you’re planning something as stressful and emotionally draining as a wedding.
.
.
.
Anyways, lets continue.
2nd Screenshot.
Now this is the part where my jaw dropped.
In all my time talking about weddings, reading stories & being around this space ...I've never heard of a maid of honor trying to join a couple on their honeymoon😅.
That is not normal.
.
.
.
The honeymoon is for the couple.
That’s their time to rest, decompress, and just be together after everything.
So for someone to even suggest inserting themselves into that space ...it’s just wild.

Hmmm
4th Screenshot.
What is going through my mind as i'm reading this is for her to be this comfortable doing all that on her wedding day.
It honestly makes me feel like the bride has probably been letting her walk over her throughout most of their friendship.
Like no boundaries at all.

sighhh
6th Screenshot.
This part actually confused me a bit because why was her family involved in it?
7th Screenshot.
That's the thing when it comes to money.
Most people don’t give money with zero expectations attached.
The moment she volunteered to pay for everything, I already knew this was gonna become a “well since I paid…” situation.
8th Screenshot.
I kinda see why the maid of honor felt entitled.
If she paid for everything, I understand why she thought she should invite people too.
BUT the bridal shower is still connected to the wedding so inviting random guests is messy.

Also making the bride be the one to uninvite them herself - people who i'm assuming she might not even know ...is crazy awkward.

Not gonna lie …her entering the house unannounced is giving very much unhinged behavior.
But from everything we’ve heard so far, this is honestly the least shocking part.
11th Screenshot.
No, you didn’t overreact.
Your friend is low-key unhinged and has no concept of boundaries ... or what is normal for weddings, honeymoons, or even bridal shower.
I’m just really glad you (the bride) finally stood up for yourself.
To wrap it up...
Okay, so to wrap it up.
I was reading through some of the replies on the post and I was so happy because a lot of people were having almost the same thoughts that were on my mind while reading this whole thing.
Especially when she(bride) brought up the honeymoon situation because I was genuinely confused where the fiancé was in all this?
Like why didn’t he put his foot down during that whole honeymoon debacle?
But then I saw one of the bride’s replies and she explained that her friend is apparently very loud and pushy when she wants something, while she herself tends to avoid conflict and just go along with things to keep the peace.
...which you could kind of tell.
---
She also said she didn’t really want to involve the fiancé too much because he never really liked the best friend in the first place.
He always felt like she crossed boundaries too much, while the best friend saw him as too involved and controlling.
And it created this whole weird “us vs him” dynamic over time.
So she basically tried to handle things herself because she knew if he got involved, everything would probably escalate even more.
.
.
.
And then another thing they said in the replies, which i agreed with is...
LOCKING EVERYTHING DOWN.
Change passwords, put passwords with vendors, secure anything she has access to online
...and after the whole entering the house situation?
Yeah, change the locks too.
Because the girl (MOH) is clearly dealing with something deeper on her own.
But yeah ...that’s basically my final thoughts on the whole thing.
Weddings really do reveal people sometimes.
Not just friendships either ...even family too.
So I’m just glad the bride was finally able to stand up for herself and set some boundaries.
And yeah ...i’ll see you guys in the next reaction-style blog post.
Byeeee 💗
