I would not expect my guest to clean, but I honestly feel like if I didn't have anyone to clean up my guest would tell me to leave and do after wedding stuff and they would clean up for me. I know if I were friends w/ someone and that happened to them I would clean up for them.

See this is my thing...at most weddings the bride/groom and the wedding party are the last ppl at the reception. As the evening wears on, guests tend to taper off and head out. By the end of the night there are only a few ppl left. Now I agree that if someone was left and saw me cleaning up, then I would think they'd tell me to head to the hotel/house/where ever to enjoy the remainder of my night. However, I would have assumed that most ppl would be gone by that hour and it would only by myself and the wedding party left to clean. This is why I was confused at with whom she was disappointed. The wedding party seem to be the only ppl with the responsibility to participate in the clean up.

Have you guys checked out the WE-TV Bridezilla message board lately? Maria's sisters are making asses of themselves big time. It's entertaining!

I know that the show's probably heavily edited, but stopping off at the bar BEFORE your wedding ceremony? Good grief. I hope that one of her wedding gifts was an invitation to AA! :eek:

And why does the network insist on picking trailer trash for the show? Monica? Your red wedding dress is HIDEOUS and I hope your guests laughed their asses off when you walked down the aisle.

Did anyone else notice that in one of the shots for next week that it shows her in red and her bridemaids in white? And as for trailer trash, remember she did tell us that she was living trailer fabulous! :p I actually like this bridezilla!

Those boards are FUNNNY! Looks like one of Maria's sisters is on there defending her. And she seems to have a few regular posters who are fans too The mid-westerners are posting saying that drinking is all they have to do there...hmmm

I was brought up to believe that it was rude to leave before the bridal couple had their "send off" - rice, bubbles, whatever. HOWEVER I have been to weddings where the happy couple apparently are NEVER going to leave - and 11:00 p.m. is pretty much my limit.
I was a bridesmaid at a wedding where the bridal party was supposed to decorate EVERYTHING. The maid of honor and a couple of other bridesmaids left before the decorating started. I thus had no trouble leaving before the clean-up - I left it to the decorating no-shows and made a silent vow that my daughters' attendants would NEVER have to do either decorating or clean-up!

I wonder if Gwen regrets hers? I thought she looked absolutely amazing on her wedding day and I loved loved loved this dress!

I will agree with you here. I'm not usually a fan of funky-colored wedding gowns, but hers is an exception.

I started watching the Maria bridezilla episode today. I wound up turning it off because she was just so annoying and the voiceover that kept saying 'briiiiiidezillahs!' was driving me up the wall.

But seriously...how do you defend someone who marches into her sister's hospital room hours after she gives birth and demands that she start baking and frosting and that she induce the birth a week early FOR HER.

She was just irritating more than anything. I would have smacked her. Make your own goddamn cakes you lush. Her dress sucked too.

she has such a unique pulled together style that she can get away with that dress. I agree she looks amazing.

Yeah, Andrea's wedding was nice!

sidebar: One of my Specs/Big Sisters used to say that she had was going to make her bridesmaids work out too. IF they had to be in HER pictures, they HAD to look good. lol

Okay, after watching last week's and this week's episode, in the event that I miss future Bridezilla episodes, I don't think I'll be missing out on much.

The season started so strong. Now they've officially hit CRAP.

I Second!
