Stuck between a rock and a hard place.

Many brides will tell you that after you get married, there is not a lot you can actually do with your wedding dress. Sure, it is a nice memento, you can try it on five years after the wedding and see if it still fits, and you might be able to save it for the off chance that your future daughter will want to wear it as well. But other than that, it will only collect dust and take up unnecessary space in your closet for years, while you will just feel bad about getting rid of it since it is stil…

It’s not a given that we will understand the decisions and motives of our friends and family. Have you ever watched a loved one make a series of appalling decisions, and just facepalm when it all blows up in their face? We all know someone with the worst taste in men and relationships, always trying to expose their red flags before they get hurt, but our suggestions go through one ear and out the other. Or what about our friend who can’t hold down a job, who’s always between one Ponzi scheme or…

When the in-laws misbehave, then treat yourself to a wedding that does NOT include them!

From Maid-of-Honor for the bride, to somebody that you used to know.

Any girl who had to be a bridesmaid more than once knows that it is quite a big role to take on. It is a lot of responsibility, a lot of work, and often not a lot of fun. So once you have done it once or twice for your closest friends, you might find that attending a wedding as a guest is much more fun than as a bridesmaid. This is why I can't imagine why someone would agree to do all the work of a bridesmaid without actually being a bridesmaid, like what the woman in this Reddit story was aske…

It's easy to tunnel-vision in the heat of wedding planning.

All of us ladies know how frustrating it can be when one of your girlfriends is dating someone who is just not good for her. Depending on their relationship with that friend, some girls would tell her they do not think her boyfriend is the right choice, while some would rather keep quiet and let time tell if that relationship will last or not. But no matter what kind of friend you are, there comes a point at which you should take a hint and stop getting involved. If your friend is happy with th…

White bride, white lie.

It was a destination wedding, too.

We’ve all seen the movies where there’s a dramatic ‘I object!’ right before a couple gets married. Usually it’s a male character, the good guy, who the audience is rooting for over the acknowledged groom, but it isn’t always. Real life isn’t always like the movies; sometimes things happen that you can’t believe you’re seeing with your own eyes. The person who may object to the wedding, or at least reveal some deep secret about the couple, isn’t always the second man in question. This brings us…

"When I asked, her reaction was ‘Isn't that the role that requires a lot of work?’"

"Go as a guest. Support your friend in a role that doesn't bankrupt you..."

Welcome back internet enthusiasts. As they say , communication is key . Although we have all heard this lifelong saying, few take it to heart. I’m a firm believer in communicating problems that arise. There isn’t inherently an issue or offense to conflict, but it will most certainly spin out of control when one doesn’t express it to the people involved. This brings us to the Reddit thread . It’s about a woman getting married, who’s appointed her best friend to be the maid of honor. Her friend i…

The Maid of Honor is the one who made it uncomfortable

Welcome back ladies and gentlemen of the internet. We all know what it’s like to feel jealousy. That pang of nausea, like there’s a pit in your stomach that you can’t mitigate. Like your head is swirling with thoughts and fears of betrayal, feeling like all your worst nightmares are enclosing around you. It makes us feel worthless, undesirable, and insecure. I think it’s safe to say that no one likes that feeling. It’s even worse when it’s from people you thought you could trust, such as your f…
