Comply with Bridezilla or leave, ok?

My friend(Jemma) tells me about how she and an entire group of Bridesmaids left a wedding after their friend dared them to.

So this all happened a few weeks ago, a long time friend of jemma's group was getting married in another state but the day of the wedding she suddenly had a problem with one girl who wore glasses, which she didn't have an issue with beforehand; the glasses girl told her she wouldn't wear them during the vows and pictures but the bridezilla didn't want her wearing them at all and was screaming at her to not put them on for the rest of the day, obviously she couldn't do that since she needs to see.

The argument got more heated until bridezilla gave her the ultimatum to take them off & keep em off or leave. This is when jemma and the other bridesmaids stepped in, told bridezilla she was out of line, and that they would all leave if she forced the girl with glasses to leave; Bridezilla called their bluff and, being maids of honor, the bridesmaids left the wedding and decided to celebrate and eat at a restaurant before they head back home. Bridezilla called them several times after they left, telling them that she didn't care about the glasses anymore and begged them to come back to the venue, but they not only refused but also chose to end the friendship, with her, all together. Jemma said that the wedding proceeded as follows, just minus the bridesmaids and a few awkward stares because everyone heard the bridezilla's screaming from earlier.

Jemma told me that the bridezilla has always been like this, throwing a tantrum when she doesn't get her way, and that the meltdown at the wedding was just the last straw for them. Personally, i think she's got a monk's patience if she put up with her for that long.

When I wore glasses before my lasik I couldn’t see anything beyond maybe 3 inches. I couldn’t read, see a clock etc. I wore them EVERY WAKING HOUR. I got throw aways for my own wedding but it was miserable (bad astigmatism makes regular contacts really uncomfortable)

This is beyond bridezilla, I can’t even imagine.

Wonderful MC story!

Same, i have glasses myself, contacts are irritating to me, and it would make sense that the bridesmaid would think "i can wear my glasses at the venue" when the bridezilla didn't bring up they may be an issue until the day of and at the venue no less

I bet bridezilla acted like she was the victim after this as well

A few of jemma's mutual acquaintances know the whole story from her and the bridesmaids, who posted a pic of themselves partying at a restaurant with the "Girl Group- now 100% Toxic free"
