I'm also dying to know who gets left at the altar on Bridezillas! But on the preview they keep showing for that episode, the bride doesn't sound too sad when she says there won't be a wedding. She sounds like she's pissed! I wonder if she's gonna still be in bridezilla mode and start throwing a fit! Man, I can't wait to see that episode!!

Sorry for the double post, but I'm in the wedding of one of my best friends (June 2008) and I love her to death, but she's the textbook Bridezilla.
She insists on accompanying all the bridesmaids to Victoria's Secret, so she can CHOOSE the undergarments we'll be wearing under our dresses (because of course we're incapable of choosing the apprpriate ones on our own). We're supposed to bring our dresses with us so she can see how our bras and undies look in them!
She's hiring a makeup artist for us. Great right? It's not so great because she asking that we PAY for THREE trials of our makeup in the months leading up to the wedding--for $100 a pop. She wants to make sure our make up looks "perfect for her big day".

I would say, "Thanks but no thanks, it's not my job to get made-up for $300 before the wedding." what a waste of money and what a bitch of a bride. And who is she to pick out your bra and underwear. Doesn't she realize that no one really gives two craps how you all look? Bridesmaids/matrons could show up in burlap sacks most of the time.
I paid for my attendants hair and make-up. My caveat was just to not have my younger sister do her own make up...she does a crap job...too much eyeliner.  They picked out their dresses and their shoes...I just picked them the color that I wanted them both to wear and even then, they had the choice between three- but they had to wear the same color.

See and that's how I thought it was supposed to be. In alot of the weddings I've been in, if there was something specific she wanted us to have that was out of the usual (i.e. extra makeup trials or an updo from some super expensive salon) she would PAY for it.
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 can see asking you all to wear the "proper undergarments," but it doesn't have to be Victoria's Secret. Most department stores have affordable items.
The whole makeup deal is a little ridiculous too. I paid for my bridesmaid's hair, make-up, hotel, etc. That is a bit much for her to ask of you...you never know folk's financial situation.

My cousin (one of my bridemaids) is just going to do everyone's hair and makeup. If anyone wants anything different, then they can, but I don't plan on paying for it ... is that rude? (Seriously, I don't know --- someone tell me if it is. All this bridal etiquette stuff is freaking me out.)
