Update: I called her about the underwear thing and she told me that I didn't have to. She told me that it's not me that she's worried about, but some of the other bridesmaids. She said that there will be no "VPL on my day."

I hate it when women call it "my day". It wasn't my day, nor did it need to be. It was a wedding ceremony and my husband and I did it our way. What happens after that one day is far more important in the long run. It sounds to me like your friend is thinking more about the day being "perfect" - which they never are, than actually about the fun aspect behind it all. Who cares about VPL? Like I said, does anyone actually look at the bride's attendants? As long as the groom shows up, no one is wasted during the ceremony and all the people they the bride and groom really want to show up do, isn't that enough?
I am curious to know how many of these Bridezillas are still married or what the divorce rate of these "my day" women is.
My sister was freezing her butt off at my wedding and ended up wearing her Ugg boots, did I care? Not really, did I give her some fun loving crap for wearing Uggs? Sure. Granted the dress was long and covered her feet otherwise I probably would have asked her to put better shoes on for pictures, but we were in Ireland in late december so I didn't care. I was freezing my butt off too.
If there is anything I learned at Engaged Encounter, "A wedding is a day, a marriage is a lifetime."
