I wore white to a wedding once, and my friend mom was belittling me the whole drive there. Until we got there and she was comfused because everyone's wearing white. Turns out, she never actually read the wedding invitations that requests everyone to wear white The bride and groom both are wearing black.
I know I'll never get married (bf not interested), but that's exactly how I'd want mine to be. Everyone in white/very pale colours and I get to rock a beautiful black wedding dress!
My close friend said she didn’t want to be my bridesmaid, she wanted to be my “brick thrower” or the person to throw bricks at the people who talked sh*t about me and throws red wine filled water balloons on people who wear white to my wedding. I’m still close with her and I love her dearly, a true best friend. Edit: she was kidding about the bricks, but not the wine water balloons.
LOVE this!! That sounds like my best friend and I relationship!! Even after almost 15 years she is my absolute BEST friend in the world. Glad you have that in your life!! We ALL NEED a friend like THAT. Best wishes to you and yours!!💖
My best friend let me know a couple of weeks ago that she is getting married and I am so excited for her! She also told me right away that even though I am her best friend, she is asking her childhood best friend to be her maid of honor. She asked me to be her planner/coordinator. You know what I did? Started planning her wedding with her. Within a couple of hours, we figured out colors, dresses, decor ideas, location, etc. It is her wedding and I am honored that she trusts me enough to literally hand me her wedding day.
You are an amazing person and a true blue best friend. This comment is one of the best I've seen on You Tube. I give both of you credit for the open communication and then drama free. She is fortunate to have you and vice versa. Have a wonderful day. Respectfully yours, Missy Ps unless you don't want her to know you commented on YT please tell your friend a grandma in California says congratulations and I hope her day turns out to be a best day EVER. Have fun and dance, dance and dance some more.
@missmissy_90 Thank you, Missy. Neither one of us are drama seekers (except when I watch Charlotte 😆). We used to plan and coordinate weddings together all the time so she knows she can trust me with it. I am very excited to help with her wedding, and it will be super special since she officially beat cancer just in the last few months! ❤️
My sister was my MOH but my best friend helped put my wedding together. When people care about you they aren't going to make the situation about them and their hurt feelings
If the bride didn't even notice that someone else wore white, that means she was sure that it's her day and nobody could steal it even if they tried. She was content and happy, and she didn't need to search for drama. And now she has a fun story to tell😂😂😂
The baker should have added a clause to the contract that stated if payment was not received one month prior to the wedding the contract would be cancelled and the deposit would be non-refundable. If consequences are not laid out in firm language the baker will always be left without payment. It is not easy for soft hearted people to be firm but it is a skill that those who are self-employed need to learn.
Except people in the wedding industry do it because we love our couples most of the time. But it should never had gotten down to no payment even one week before!
My cousin's photographer edited a girl in white at her wedding to the most disgusting shade of brown possible. It was amazing. My cousin was very sad when she saw the girl in white in many pictures, so the photographer was like "i got you". And she did!
When my best friend got married, she actually apologized to me for making her sister her maid of honor instead of me. I told her she has nothing to apologize for. I knew she would pick her sister and I didn’t have a problem with it at all. Just like she didn’t have a problem with me picking my sister. I don’t get women that get pissed off about that kind of thing. I was just happy to be included.
Agreed! When my best friend got married she asked two other friends we are both also close to to be her masters of ceremony. We all got together and she hadn't asked me and I just smiled and congratulated all of them, because they are lovely people. Then later it turned out she wanted me to be MOH and I was so so much happier still, but I wouldn't have mentioned anything even if she hadn't included me at all. Nobody owes you a place in their celebration and if you love them you accept their choices.
Oh it’s not just the women! 😭 my wedding party has no maid of honor or best man, primarily because of the groomsmen. My sister and girlfriends have no problem with no official MOH, but my grandma was so upset! I just find the titles silly anyways.
As a woman who wears modest clothes for religious reasons, I find this 'leave nothing to imagination' phrase so weird. I don't cover up to give something to your imagination to play with. In fact, kindly leave me out of your imagination altogether please and thank you. If you think someone's dressed immodestly, you always have a great option of not looking at them instead of shaming them.
Agreed! A women’s body is not something you need to be imagining, most religions I have encountered call that a sin of the mind, its improper thoughts. Modesty for a religious purpose has always been presented to me as part of one’s relationship with their higher power/creator. Every time I see or have an opinion on this matter, somehow it gets turned to involve the male gaze or the female judgment, but it has nothing to do with anyone but the individual, their religion, and maybe their loved ones.
yeah, I'm not religious but I agree that's such a gross phrase, like way to sexualize women whether they cover up or not, you really can't win sometimes.
Exactly! I’m Christian and we usually wear according to the occasion, but how would it make any sense to cover every single inch of my body to make a man feel some type of way?? Make it make sense! For the gym I usually do shorts (average short length) or leggings and an oversized t-shirt, meanwhile most girls wear tiny micro shorts and a tiny workout bras . Does that lady really think the gym dudes would be looking at me like “hmmm, I wonder what she looks like under all that fabric!!”? There could be weird men like this, but at my gym they are very respectful towards the ladies with tinier clothes (so I really can’t imagine them ever thinking I want to leave something for their “imagination” by wearing “too much clothing”)! 😂
Yes! There is a thick layer of objetification in that phrase, I hate It so much. I also hate the modest trend too. I was created in a religious background and to this day I'm not fond of low clevages and tiny skirts but this never ocurred to me as something like a duty, I just wear what I like. People should be able to dress the way they want to either for religious reasons or not. And a little bit off topic, people who dress "modestly" inside religious communities often face backlash when dressing differently but the opposite also happens, I cannot count the ammount of times people tried to push me to wear a bikini when I'm really confortable with my full piece bathing suit.
I love the modest dress, and i love that she designed it herself. But there is definitely no need to be negative towards others. Slay in your lane, ladies.
The last one the MIL waited until the last minute so the cake artist would feel pressured by the upcoming deadline and know that she wouldn't be able to book something else in that time. So the MIL was hoping she would think some money is better than none and do the wedding at the reduced amount.
Yup. I am a pastry and dessert chef and when I cater wedding cakes, I have dealt with this dozens of times. They always scream when you say a deadline is a deadline and point out a contract was signed, especially when you remind them the deposit is nonrefundable.
My mom used to have a dress shop. Due to scandalous bridal dresses, the church here prohibited plunging necklines, backless, etc. So what my Mom did, she designed with either bolero, or detouchable top or collar but after the ceremony, we take it off for the photo op and reception 😂 my mom always say "you wont be thin forever, show it off now."
There was this one girl in one of my college classes who came in one fuming! Like slamming books down on the desk and almost yelling at anyone who asked her what was wrong. The reason? Her sister was getting married and that morning her sister told her that she was going to have her best friend as the Maid of Honor. Girl was pissed that she wasn't going to be the MOH and was only going to be a "lowly bride's maid." Few weeks go by, and she starts ranting about being kicked out of the wedding party. Another week goes by and she's completely uninvited. Gee, I wonder why....
@@aralornwolf3140 And it was painfully obvious why her sister didn't like her. A lot of people in class didn't care for her either for the same reason.
Honestly I am very close to my sister but still she chose her two besties as MOH , and it's fine I guess sometimes it more exciting hanging out with ur friends than ur family , ur besties have different attitudes than ur siblings may have
That mother-in-law in the second story! She not only showed no respect for the cake-maker, she also showed no respect for her future daughter-in-law. She did whatever she was able to do to embarrass the couple at their wedding. The cake-maker was so kind and sweet to help out the bride as much as she was able to. That poor bride! So glad she divorced her weak-ass husband. I’m sure MIL had her part in that as well.
It’s because of this channel that I texted one of my best friends from college to apologize about wearing white to her wedding, because I literally had NO IDEA about this rule. She laughed and told me she didn’t care, and she didn’t notice. She said I should know her better than that. So happy no one at her wedding made an example of my ignorance. We are not all doing it on purpose!
I wore white dress to my best friend wedding too! But, it was my one and only dress, and it's color was more off-white, kinda gray. When she saw me, she politely comlimented me, but said it was not 'official enough, I want you to shine', opened her wardrobe and gave me like 5 more choices what I can wear (we were the same size). So I ended up in a super beautiful red dress I chose, and not white-gray sports-style dress I wore because it was all I had. And only five years later I heard about not wearing white to the wedding. Bestest of best friends I had there.
I wore an open back with spaghetti straps wedding dress. Many of my guests were religious and wore very modest dresses and even head coverings (think ultra-orthodox Jews). Other guests had outfits with short hems and cut-outs. The mix and variety are part of what made my wedding so special!
My first time commenting… I have 3 daughters. When they were in their teens, they agreed that they would not be MOHs at each others’ weddings. They didn’t want to have to be in the position of selecting a MOH between the two sisters. They’re all married now, and they all served as bridesmaids. They all selected their closest friend as their MOH. Charlotte, I LOVE your videos! I have been binge watching these past few weeks. I’m hooked! I even recommended you to my adult granddaughters (24 & 19). I figured that they could learn some life lessons from you. 😉☺️😃
I have six sisters. None but my oldest sister wanted to be mine. I’m glad she wanted to though. Because between my friends group, it would be oh so hard. There’s six of us, all brought together through me. It would be so rude to all of my friends if I chose one of them. So I lucked out
I've never been married. I don't have any sisters. ALL my childhood and adult best friends ONLY have sisters, and there is quite an age difference between them (like 7-9 years). They are sisters but not close friends, if that makes sense. All of my friends have had their sisters as their MOH, and I've never felt any way about that. That's family! I'm here for the best friend insight for the girls celebrations! I love how your girls agreed to this to take the petty feelings out of this!
My husband and I chose the couple without whom we would have never met. We have a thing called Trauzeuge for weddings in our country, they litterly sign on the marriage paperwork.
My cousins worked it out ahead of time when they were young, they would each be maid of honor at one of the other's wedding, so they all got to be maid of honor for one of their sisters.
My grandma had the best comeback to people who blamed their bad behaviour, mean girl crap on alcohol…. “A drunk person’s words are a sober person’s thoughts.”
This has been making the rounds of Social media. There is photo of Charles and Diana during their wedding and in the crowd you can see Camilla dressed in white including a large white hat. Fast forward 30 years to the wedding of Charles and Camilla. Queen Elizabeth did not attend but there is a photo of her greeting afterwards. Her majesty is wearing a white dress that is almost identical to the one Camilla wore at Diana’s wedding including an almost identical big white hat.
Wrong. Camilla was wearing grey, but it looked white due to the technology at the time (1981 cameras!) and the late Queen wore pale yellow to Charles' second wedding (and Camilla herself didn't even wear white either).
@@kathydurow6814 legally, NO ONE can wear the same color as the queen at ANY event. This means Camilla HAD to wear a different color than white. And the Queen's outfit color was announced in advance so no one accidentally broke the rule.
My mom had a beautiful ivory/white dress that fit her so nicely. My Dad was dying of lung cancer while we were planning my wedding (we even moved our wedding hoping he’d be there, he died 10 days prior). Obviously she didn’t have time (or energy) to go dress shopping. She asked if I’d be upset if she wore that dress. I didn’t even know/care about others not wearing white. We had beautiful photos together.
The ONLY time a wedding guest should wear white is if it’s part of the dress code ON THE INVITATION. When my aunt got married she initially was gonna wear a white dress but fell in love with a gorgeous red gown that looked stunning on her. So she wore that dress and the groom wore a tuxedo with a red vest and bow tie, and the guest dress code was “black and white.” I myself wore a really cute dress that was white with black mixed patterns. But yeah, I would NEVER wear that dress to a wedding again unless there was a similar dress code.
@Garbeaux of course! That's the very thing your future husband will see when you unenthusiasticly, mechanically and without eye contact finally advance from soaking and not go to hell for it xD
@@RajetsuKibaoh yikes. Being upset about the words this girl uses to describe others is understandable. But, mocking the beliefs of an entire religion puts you in the same boat.
The bride that didn't notice another woman wearing white at her wedding, she comes from a family of people who LIVE in the shadows, they didn't even tell the bride 😂❤❤❤
Probably because they didn’t want her to have that thought in the back of her mind the entire time. It’s her and her (now) husband’s day and they should be focused on each other. Leave the mild annoyances to the family, they got your back 😁
I went to a wedding once where the bride spent the entire wedding budget on a designer dress and an ice scupture. There was no food and only champagne. My friend and I paid a waiter to sneak into the country club bar and get us Diet Cokes because we were nursing and couldn't drink. It was a very odd night, but the dress was amazing!
Terrible host manners. Can't believe they didn't have water or other non-alcoholic beverages available. And if I expect guests to bring a gift, at least I'd feed them.
Ppl forget being MOH is actually hard work they won’t be enjoying the wedding as much as the other bridesmaids and wedding guests. You have to literally be by the brides side at all times and ‘manage’ things so everything is picture perfect and as smooth as possible. Sometimes MOH does not mean you’re the best friend No1, but the friend that can handle the situation the best and can work well under pressure and not everyone is willing to do/ or be suitable for that role. Choose your MOH wisely 💕 ✨
Amen!!! My MOH was my sister-in-law. Nothing was done except keeping her 3y/old out of trouble. And later s-I-law turned into a monster that I will never speak to again… good thing I live 3/4 of the country away from them all.
I get ya cake lady! As a florist, been there done that. Fired a few brides in my day. The reason the prices goes up for weddings…a million emails, phone calls, changes and this type of BS.
So true. My niece’s MIL insisted on catering the reception herself. It was pretty much a disaster. I’ll spare you the details of the actual meal. I sat with my favourite Uncle and we just laughed our way through it. She apparently didn’t understand about cake supports because the wedding cake looked like it was about to slide off the back of the table it was on. We laughed about that too. It didn’t affect their marriage at all although I think her MIL does tend to want to be a bit interfering. Still, Brides get waaay too invested in all the fancy details and some irrational need for perfection. The prize is the actual wedding, the mate you’re swearing your future to, it’s better to relax and keep a sense of humour.
I got married at a rustic lakeside resort, with a ‘wear western if you feel like it’ theme. Combined it with a family reunion so lots of people came. Barbecue, standard sides, and a Costco sheet cake. Lots of fun, still together 30 years later. Would recommend.
It was both of our 2nd marriage and we had kids so no money. We got married at the courthouse on our day off and it's been 42 years. We're blessed with 4 sons, his, mine and ours. Plus 15 grandkids and our 1st great grandbaby girl is due in 3 weeks. Marriage is more important than a damn wedding.
@@Nanahux I also like what my cousin and her now ex did. They were in the military stationed in Texas while her family is here in Minnesota. They had a courthouse wedding and had a big first anniversary party here when they moved
People should put a disclaimer about wearing white or white looking colors on the day of the wedding on the invites. "Anyone who is seen wearing white or white looking colors on the day of the wedding other than the bride will have something red thrown at them. By attending, you comply to the agreement. Come at your own discretion!"
Actually it’s a cultural I think I guess, it is not a big deal in some countries like in North Africa where my parents are from, unless you dress with like a big white wedding gown no one is gonna care if you wear white , sometimes even the close family wears white. Maybe it’s not a big deal cause in North African weddings the bride wears up to 7 different dresses or traditional clothes for her big day and even the guests change their outfits several times.
Been in a wedding lately. Usually it wouldn't be acceptable to wear white or white-adjacent colors but because of the theme, which was Filipiñna, we were given a pass.... since a lot of clothes in that style available commercially were made in white or white-adjacent. Especially those made in pinya cloth. This wedding was made known to us quite recently too so there was no time to get anything sewn.
The first story is wild to me. My best guy friend was getting married and his fiancé and I were instantly best friends. She had two besties from her hometown and she told me she didn’t know who she should pick as her MOH. She told me she felt like I should be it because we were so close. I was absolutely flattered and would have been so happy to do it, but told her to pick one of the other two girls because she had grown up with them. I think we need to remember that we don’t get to dictate or be angry with the decisions the bride and groom make. We are there to show our love and support and to celebrate the newly married couple. ❤
@@wartanabadanooh7157 She chose the one who she had known the longest (I think she met one in elementary school and the other when she was a little older). She said they practically lived at one another’s houses growing up.
I make custom cakes. It’s not cheap to make, nor does it takes minutes to make.. it takes HOURS to bake, prep and decorate… and then they ask for you to deliver it. ❤
As a baker who does weddings these always boggles my mind 😅 Cake and sweets are a LOT of work! I just did my best friend's 3-tier cake and 80 cupcakes. It took me about a week and was paid $500 (I gave her a huge discount lol) and made almost no profit because of materials, packaging, and specialty ingredients. Not to mention the time and stress that goes into this line of work. Cake designers and bakers are so unappreciated. This is INCREDIBLY common.
A while back she said she's not classes enough for pearls I disagree if I had the means I'd buy her pearl I think she awesome such a kind and beautiful lady
Lol i work at a home decor store and people really do come in, look at an item, and go "I like the item but not that price. What can you do for me?" Bish this ain't a flea market. If you don't like the price than leave.
I'm a bridesmaid in a wedding that's coming later this year and THE ONLY REASON is because the bride knows that I'm the friend who will throw red wine on someone for wearing white to her wedding. She told me that this is my only job as a bridesmaid so that her maid of honor can be the "good guy" and ask the offender to leave, and i can be the "bad guy" with the wine if they fail to do so.
You can be some sort of undercover bridesmaid, no need to dress like a bridesmaid, your only duty is spill the red wine... 007 bridesmaid licence to spill
Perhaps send in The Good Guy first, to ask said idiot to go change, and Good MOH will gently whisper "Or the alternative is to wear red wine all over the back of your skirt - with no more warning"....
That wedding dessert tale was gripping!! I book corporate events and you MUST pay your vendors if you want your event to be a success!!! And it’s hard to execute everything on your own - that’s why we have vendors.
I was with a mommas boy who constantly told me I wasn’t good enough for my partner cause I have bipolar 1 disorder, eventually he caved and broke up with me. It ruined me. I loved him so much that my heart has never been the same. It’s been 13 years and after A-LOT I’m just starting to get over it and understand it wasn’t my fault. I’m now 43 and I’ve chosen to stay single and help look after my parents with their aging health problems and my heart has never felt lighter.
I'm so very sorry!!! You did not deserve that. You are worthy of so very much better. ❤ That's vile, what was done to you. Though I can promise you, that you are probably better off without the "man" who refused to stand up for you. That kind of attitude & behavior rarely changes after marriage, unfortunately. As I know far too well. You need a partner who is *_~ON YOUR SIDE~_* FIRST, FOREMOST, & ALWAYS. Mama's boy children will never be decent _HUSBANDS, & FATHERS,_ as they are expected to be THEIR _MOMMY'S HUSBAND,_ FIRST, FOREMOST, FRONT & CENTER. MOMMIES LIKE THAT NEVER ALLOW THE "OTHER WOMAN" to WIN. I wish you a good, kind, decent fully-SINGLE man, someday, if you still may want a partner (& a male partner). It is a véry worthy pursuit-- looking after your parents, & your elders. God bless you, your parents, your family, & your future. ❤
Your ex and his mother deserve each other. You deserve love and a real man to stick up for you and be your support. I hope you don’t give up on true love ❤
@@jenniferbate-mz3yl Awww. 💗 Thank you. You are very kind. ❤️ You deserve to feel validated & special. You are BOTH of those things. ❤️ You are clearly a very special, beautiful person. You deserve Joy, happiness, & peace.
As someone who had a modest wedding dress, I don't understand brides tearing other brides down because of their choice of dress. Wear whatever you feel and look beautiful and confident in! And don't worry about what other people say! It's your dress and your wedding!
Honestly the number of brides online that do this scare me a lot. My boyfriend and I are nowhere near the engagement stage let alone marriage stage and we're both set on me not only having a non stereotypical wedding dress (I'm either going to have an emo themed one or a sailor moon one in the style of dresses from the 15th-16th centuries) but I've made a vow that I'm going to make it myself because I'm a pretty competent seamstress and know my body better than a lot of dressmakers would do (body is of abnormal proportion and not a standard hourglass in proportion which is hard to cater for)
@@Nekogal21 I love that. My dress was blue and champagne. The original colors before the 1800's were black, brown, gray and blue because they were easy to come by in the time and white was reserved for funerals.
@Nekogal21 that sounds so cool! And I think that's awesome that you plan on making your own dress!!! Rock on, girl! I wish I had more skill with sewing. My mom helped me extend the sleeves on my wedding dress. I wanted it long sleeved with extra decorative lace since I was having a winter wedding. And instead of the traditional veil, I had a royal blue velvet cape. In fact, my profile pic is one of my favorite photos from my bridal shoot.
@@jbkoch96 I actually never had any idea what colours people wore pre 19th century for weddings. That's a pretty fascinating fact. Without putting white down because it's still pretty I'm going to bring as much colour as I can without looking over the top
The bride in the last video should have called off the wedding as soon the mother-in-law started bickering about the cake cost . It would have saved her the pain of the divorce and the embarrassment of a wedding . Also , Charlotte saying "that's a plot twist" with the same expression as "Clutching my pearls" . 😂
I agree. I know the cake artist suffered because of the MIL but she wasn't the one MIL was trying to hurt. She was saying her soon-to-be DIL wasn't worth it. It was a huge red flag that the groom wasn't dealing with his mother. The bride either missed it or hoped it would get resolved after the wedding. Spoiler Alert: If you don't take care of the problem before the wedding, it only gets worse from there.
I was bridesmaid for my bestie. She had a small wedding so I was the only bridesmaid. All her other g/friends double downed on me, saying I was only bridesmaid because bride felt sorry for me for losing my partner 5 months The fact I had been there to help her organised the wedding, helped her pick her dress and looked after her 3 kids while she was away on her honeymoon ment nothing to them. They did nothing.
Okay, the adorable girl talking about the men girls bridesmaid while playing with her food with a plastic fork and her fingers while never showing taking a bite is absolutely sending me over the edge.
In Germany, we don't have bridesmaids, a MOH, or a best man - and that's good, looking at all the drama presented on this channel. My MIL made my wedding cake herself: a three-tiered sponge cake with jam and buttercream filling. She had a little help from her aunt and me with decorating. It was gorgeous and it tasted like heaven. Our marriage lasted until my husband passed away. And my MIL was the best MIL you can imagine. You always marry the family not only the spouse. Keep this always in the back of your head.
iN gERmAnY- whatever, good for you. However, it doesn't always go poorly having Maids and Men of Honor in a wedding party. Plenty work out just fine every day. You can't judge traditions by Reddit posts intended to share drama.
@vocexseta interesting since the weddings I went to in Germany, they did have a bridal party. My best friend, who is German, her son just got married and they had brides maids and groomsmen.
@@My3gifts It would be interesting to know where in Germany that wedding took place and the background of the families. There may be other traditions in other parts of the country and families with different nackgrounds - or movies and tv influenced the couple to have an "English" (tradition in English speaking countries) wedding. I'm from the southwest of Germany and both our families have protestant backgrounds and no migration history, We had 2 "Trauzeugen" (both male, but you can choose whoever you want) for the civil ceremony (mandatory) at the town registry (Standesamt). The church ceremony was the same as every one I attended before or after. No one beside my husband and me walking down the aisle together.
@@vocexseta Are you Alright? She wasn't criticizing. The majority of cultures around the world do not have the concept of bridesmaids, MOH, and best man, even though best friends and close family members still play important roles in the ceremony. While “iT doEsn't alWayS Go pooRly haVing mAids and mEn of hoNor in a weDding Party,” it is still a very expensive and wasteful 'tradition' that brings a lot of drama, instead of allowing the bride and groom to enjoy their special day with their loved ones. But to each their own 👍
I'm so glad that in my culture, we don't have to deal with this "don't wear white at a wedding" stuff, some people will even come wearing their actual sari they got married in to other people's weddings and they'll still never even hope of outshining the bride. In my culture, weddings are for everyone to look good and celebrate the couple together, without being too finnicky about the colour of clothes that people wear- even non-brides can wear the same shade of red the bride's wedding sari will usually be. I enjoy seeing all the guests dressed to the nines at weddings and sharing makeup and bindi and helping each other with pins and fixing each other's hair. One of my favourite parts of Indian weddings is seeing what everyone is wearing tbh. Also the food. And the opportunity to catch up with family and friends while being dressed in your best and most beautiful outfits- makes me feel like a princess at a royal event lol
Ikr ! People genuinely having fun at the wedding. One of my college bestie was hitched 2 years back and it was the coolest thing ever! Everyone including me wore colorful, blingy and beautiful saris, jewelleries. Had our hair done and had an amazing ceremony! 👏 Everyone was happy around us and nobody 'outshined' the bride. It was her day and she was happy ❤ Nothing else mattered! ❤
That's really nice! Before Queen Victoria started the trend about 120 or so years ago, people here just wore the nicest dress they had to their wedding (or had a dress made which after the wedding just was their nicest dress in the closet). Much more sustainable than spending thousands of $ or € or whatever on a dress that is only worn for a few hours.
What are you talking about. All the woman and aunties who come looking like a gold shop trying to out do the bride definitely get side eyes from us. Maybe it's just a younger gen thing
Yeah I hate it, it takes years of invisible work to build your repertoire and improve your skills, if you can't afford it stop being rude and wasting the artist's time... You could get them to lower the price but don't expect it, there was this one guy in my uni that made great portraits, I wanted to gift a friend of mine a drawing of us 2 together in our first day at uni, but when I asked for the prices I saw it was outside of my budget, I clearly deflated and the artist was like "how much can you pay" I said to nevermind cus I didn't want to take advantage but he was so kind and was like "ok what If instead of my normal drawings I make something simpler... I could charge x instead " I was so happy cus that was something I could afford, it was a great deal and the final product was beautiful.
That's what I'm saying! I charge a lot for my cakes because it takes so much time making from scratch, and they're quality. I gave my friend a huge discount of $500 for her wedding (I was working with her budget and at least wanted to cover materials... and she's like a sister to me so this was my wedding gift to her), but normally for a big 3-tier cake and 80 cupcakes, altogether 6 flavors from scratch, I'd be charging at least $900 give or take, probably more. Because cake making is not easy and can be very expensive depending on where you get your ingredients or how big the order is. I wish people could understand that more.
I’ve known my SIL since I was 3, we’ve always been close and she’s been my family for as long as I can remember. My cousin is really like my big brother, so we three have always been fairly close-knit. I was one of her bridesmaids for their wedding in 2015, along with her three sisters and a few friends I’ve also known for years. My SIL’ MOH was her best friend that she’s known since high school. Her sisters understood, obv you can’t pick only one when there are three sisters, and everyone has always been close with everyone. My feelings weren’t hurt or anything, I honestly was just happy to be included in the wedding party. They’ve been together since 2006, just celebrated their 8th anniversary in October, and had my two nephews birthday in December 😊 (the moh is still around, has her own kids the same age as my nephews, and even moved in across the street from my SIL. We absolutely love them:))
As a retired baker I just want to say a wedding cake usually involves 2 or 3 different kinds of cake, 2 or 3 different fillings, icing, fondant and or marzipan, plus decorative do dads and/or fresh flowers. Plus support beams, special plates and fixtures to hold it all together. It's like building a freaking building from scratch. It takes A LOT of time, skill, experience. Then you have to deal with brides and mothers. And you need to transport the giant cake, in pieces, to the venue, set it up, and finish it on site. TELL ME HOW IS THAT NOT WORTH >$1,000???
IF I ever get married again, I'm gonna request that ALL of my guests wear their wedding dress or whatever dress made them feel the most confidant & stunning, in their whole lives. Men too, will _need_ to feel like they're SO good looking & great feeling that their _very presence_ might set the room on fire! This is the very bestest thing about 2nd marriages, getting to starting some wonderful & super fun traditions. Love life, we only get one! 💕
About the prices for weddings skyrocketing, recently there was a case about this my country (Brazil), about the prices for brides being more expensive, so a woman asked for a "social makeup", that cost R$120-160, (because she was on a budget) and not a bridal makeup (that was R$2000+). The makeup artist saw her post and the lie, so she went out on social media, and the bride responded.
@@Diridonda the bride said about the budget and that is was just a little party after signing the documents, and the makeup artist said that the mother in law (of the bride), another girl and the bride started telling a story about the makeup being for a christening and that she wasn't happy about discovering the lie and started showing the differences in her package (it was a lot of stuff hahahaha). Sorry if any mispelling
When my ex and I were getting married, the catering company canceled 4 days before the wedding. He said he got a higher-paying gig so he had to cancel ours. It was absolute chaos.
I went to a wedding once where several of us who traveled stayed overnight in the venue the evening before. That morning, after helping decorate for a while, I went to change into my outfit for the evening and only then realized that I’d packed a SOLID WHITE dress. I didn’t even think, it was just the newest thing I had. The guy who drove me to a local goodwill that morning was a real life saver!
My sister (and MOH) told me about how she had to straight up shut down my mom and grandma while dress shopping. Apparently, neither of them thought there was anything wrong with wearing white to my wedding
I strongly believe now, Wedding, Funeral and Reunion are nothing but an event to understand actual human behavior and how people feel about you. Love your content Charlotte! Keep going ❤
One of my besties that lives in England is getting married to her long term bf and I’m so happy for them 😭 I wish I could get over there but she knows I’ll be there for her in spirit!! That’s how friendships should be. I didn’t even technically get an invite but it’s not the first friend I haven’t been invited to their wedding cause they were keeping it small and mostly family which is totally understandable ❤ Their day is their day, I’m just happy they found their person x
I recently watched a story about a couple that didn’t want to pay for a wedding venue so they wedding bombed a coffee shop in Indiana. They blocked the door and the path for customers going in and out, moved the furniture, and held an entire ceremony. They were there for like 2-3 hours and left. Did not have permission (this shop does catering events). Refused to pay anything even after the fact. It’s a crazy story.
FWIW, I googled that because it's baffling. The bride had indeed contacted the owner of the shop but he admits he forgot to tell the manager. The owner thought the couple was just going to do paperwork or something at the coffee shop. The bride was sorry about the mixup and offered money after the whole thing even though the owner had not asked for any. 'Cause, yeah, the original version was just bewildering.
the girl who i considered my best friend of 17+ years didn't even tell me when her wedding date was. i found out she got married from her parents social media. her reasoning was that she was embarrassed that it was such a small wedding. I'm now living my best life without a "best friend" who thinks so little of me.
Similar thing happened to me. Best friend of like 16 years and I didn't find out she was even engaged until I got engaged and I told her! Then was talking to her about my wedding date and turns out she was having her wedding the week after me and she had no intention of inviting me
That's $3- per guest for wedding cake and a desert table. I can't even go to the in-store bakery and get a single layer piece of snack cake for $3-. Definite sabotage! 🍰
As Christian who wants to be married, I would NEVER say anything like that, God gave us free will and even if I don't like something doesn't mean I can force anyone else.
When a former housemate of mine was getting married he specifically asked me if it was okay if he asked another friend, who he had known for several years before we met and began rooming together. I appreciated that he'd asked me (and even that he had considered me) and told him that it was up to him who he chose to stand up with him so there was no problem. I was, however, a guest at the wedding and I felt so happy that he'd found love again. The wedding was beautiful, and I remained friends with both him and his bride until his unfortunate demise (through a heart attack). It was the second marriage for both of them and their families blended well, as her children were friends with his long before they (their children) worked together to get him and her together.
My goodness I have 2 besties since elementary school were now 55. We weren’t even invited to each other’s weddings. Just the way things worked out. The love is there the loyalty is there. But heck no drama.
My wedding dress was very modest... A high v neckline, big long trumpet sleeves, and floor length mermaid skirt with a train. Not gonna lie though girl was tiiiiiiiiiiight and I loved how it fit me so so much.
For my friends wedding we made titles for everyone. I was the only one married so I was the matron of honor, her sister was the maid of honor, the sister in law was the sister of honor, we had a man of honor and my personal favorite the bartender of honor.
Your wedding videos have literally been the highlight for me the last couple of months. I’m in the process of planning my wedding and these videos are my go tos every day.
I’m grateful for mine, because all seven of my friends only know each other and hang with each other because they met through me. It would be so hard to choose without hurting one of their feelings.
Having siblings on either side could be a perk really. My friend was MOH for her future SIL even though she had only met her 2-3 times, she lives across the country. The bride had 2 bestfriends and didn't want to choose so my friend had the official title and stood next to her. My friend jokes at least she got to know the bride over champagne in the bridal suite.
The young lady that was bullied is so so pretty, maybe jealousy had something to do with the bullying. Enjoy your life with your husband. You are beautiful.
You will never stop people from hating it's human instinct. . what you can do is embrace the hate the more they hate it the more you say I love it I love it .
That does nothing but let them make the decisions for you. You are better off making your choices and ignoring the “haters” because usually they are just attention seeking toddlers at heart. The best revenge is a life lived well…and without any consideration for your haters.
For some women they dream of a certain wedding dress since they were children. Why would any woman bring somebody else down because they want to wear backless or sleeveless or whatever. I say girls do what makes you happy it's your one and only wedding day hopefully lol so live it up sissssttaasssss!
The white dress one. My daughter and I have joked about this multiple times. Being hired out for weddings, and anyone that shows up in white, we'll pour all the red wine on it you want. 🍷🍷🍷🍷
I have always felt like Flowers, Photography, and Cake/Catering are the most justified in charging higher prices because of the nature of the deliverables. Flowers and food ingredients are EXPENSIVE without the wedding word being applied, and photographers spend HOURS shooting, and even more HOURS editing your album to look beautiful and document your day. Wedding price gauging is definitely a thing, but those specific areas I don't believe gauge.
The little boy with the porridge clip that you shared. I reference that clip more often than I care to admit. And it made me happier than you know to see it here. Every time I do it my kids make fun of me whenever they ask for more or seconds. I will do the whole bit and it's weird anyway, thank you. Made my bday
With my friend’s wedding, it was less ‘this is my best/favourite friend’ or even longest friend. It was just, ‘who has time and energy to work with me on the wedding?’ And y’know who would actually want to work on it with her. Idk, to me that seemed like the most reasonable choice
I make wedding cakes and they take a long time to perfect. The vendor was extremely gracious and all people think they can bake professionally. I cannot tell you how many attempt pics I get sent to me 😂😂 xx
My wedding was in India. Not one person in my family came. The only person on the brides side was my husband’s auntie who flew with me and helped me out with customs and religious stuff. It was still a wonderful experience. My suit was royal blue and I had the ladies that came wear their bridal dresses cause they were all different shades of reds.
I make custom cheesecakes. Recently I made a champagne and chocolate covered strawberry cheesecake. It cost me over $50 just for the out of season berries and champagne. So I can't imagine doing an entire dessert table plus a wedding cake and having somebody try and cheap out on something that elaborate. I would have stopped the entire process until payment was received. If not, tough bananas.
Honestly, I don’t even think MIL didn’t think the cake was overpriced. I think she was doing everything she could to sabotage the wedding/marriage. That’s why she never even picked up the supermarket cake. Fine. Trash took itself out.
I had no idea about the white dress rule. Thankful I don’t go to weddings. Already struggle socially so weddings terrify me and I just avoid. Now I’m even more terrified 😂
99% of the rules for weddings are: do not outshine the bride. As the bride is traditionally dressed in white do not dress in white, just like you wouldn't arrive late or go through the church to meet the groom at the altar. If the bride decides to change things up you'll be told so (for example if a bride decided to wear red the invitation would specify not to wear red. if the bride would like all her guests to wear light blue the invitation will say so. and it should specify hat or no hat, although that has nothing to do with the bride but with whatever her mother decides to wear)
Final cake / MIL: I bet MIL swooped in and said “ don’t worry hon, I’ll take care of the balance for the cake and dessert” thinking how much could it be? They’ve already paid some . . . Expected $400 and finds out it’s $1200. 😅😅 I learned this lesson the hard way when my son was married and we paid for the rehearsal dinner (among many many things) but the RD was at the bride’s parent’s house and bride’s mom was very particular. She wanted food ordered from a local restaurant for 20 people. Okay I said. She ordered it, I paid. Then she wanted a cheese tray. The restaurant didn’t provide cheese trays, so I just said “no problem, want me to pick one up on the way there?” No, bride’s mom says. She knows a place. (I don’t really care for cheese, but the restaurant food was sort of “middle class” food, so I figured the cheese tray would be comparable) plus she said she was only ordering a cheese tray for 10 people since it was more of an appetizer. That 10-person cheese tray was $300. I could have DIED. Lesson learned. “Reasonable cost” is relative. You know when I got there the first thing I checked out was that damn cheese tray and it was the skimpiest thing of like Swiss, cheddar and Brie I’d ever seen. I could have spent $100 on cheese and made something much nicer. Good lordt. (And you know I got that receipt!)
SAME! It kind of irritates me whenever I see a video where someone is talking and eating. Like, you are intentionally filming this video to TALK, why wouldn't you wait until after you're done to eat? Especially if you're going to sit there and mess with your food while you talk, like, put the fork down, do one or the other! Other than that she was cute, lol.
Marriage is a beautiful union between two people who commit to love, support, and cherish each other for a lifetime. A wedding is a celebration of this commitment, bringing together family and friends to witness and celebrate the love shared by the couple as they embark on a new chapter together.
20:15 When I was a kid i would rewind this part of Aladdin over and over. It was a stim for me. I havent seen it in a while and seeing it here i was suddenly flashbacking to my childhood 😂
My husband and I went I to our wedding with the mindset that we'd pay for everything ourselves. Help was welcomed, but not expected. Then cv happened and we ended up having it in the backyard 😂 It was still beautiful and fun and the best day of my life 💜
I once made a sweet table, lemme tell youuuu the time and dedication it takes....the moldable decorations... I swear I had a trauma and said I would never ever do it again😂 and I didn't, and I wouldn't. Respect to the ones that actually enjoy doing it.
@@isabelhamilton-green9268drove me crazy. I came here for this comment. It's like just tell a story OR eat, or own eating while telling a story. But she just kept dapping her fingers onto food. GET FINGER FOOD.
This is so random and off topic, but seeing the first girl being Latina with a draw, literally made me so happy lol people always question my Latin roots because of my accent and called me a coconut and even my own family from Mexico made fun of me, so to see another southern Latina really made my day lol💕
I feel so seen every time you say "I love your face" and make squishing motions with your hands 😂. I've been saying that for around 15 years. My kids are so used to it that they just present their faces for squishing without being asked😂😂😂

I wore white to a wedding once, and my friend mom was belittling me the whole drive there. Until we got there and she was comfused because everyone's wearing white. Turns out, she never actually read the wedding invitations that requests everyone to wear white
The bride and groom both are wearing black.
Awesome. I hate wearing white/pale clothes so would probs do something similar if I had a big ceremony. 😄
That's awesome!
I know I'll never get married (bf not interested), but that's exactly how I'd want mine to be. Everyone in white/very pale colours and I get to rock a beautiful black wedding dress!
You're all invited to my goth wedding. Come dressed in black.
I'll be in Burgundy
Hubby will be in Dark Blue
I Love everything about that!
My close friend said she didn’t want to be my bridesmaid, she wanted to be my “brick thrower” or the person to throw bricks at the people who talked sh*t about me and throws red wine filled water balloons on people who wear white to my wedding. I’m still close with her and I love her dearly, a true best friend.
Edit: she was kidding about the bricks, but not the wine water balloons.
If I ever get married, I will be giving someone a super soaker filled with red wine 🍷 to guard the door 😂
Savage
Love it😂
LOVE this!! That sounds like my best friend and I relationship!! Even after almost 15 years she is my absolute BEST friend in the world. Glad you have that in your life!! We ALL NEED a friend like THAT. Best wishes to you and yours!!💖
I would probably get a fan with a mister filled with rit dye.
My best friend let me know a couple of weeks ago that she is getting married and I am so excited for her! She also told me right away that even though I am her best friend, she is asking her childhood best friend to be her maid of honor. She asked me to be her planner/coordinator. You know what I did? Started planning her wedding with her. Within a couple of hours, we figured out colors, dresses, decor ideas, location, etc. It is her wedding and I am honored that she trusts me enough to literally hand me her wedding day.
You are an amazing person and a true blue best friend.
This comment is one of the best I've seen on You Tube.
I give both of you credit for the open communication and then drama free.
She is fortunate to have you and vice versa.
Have a wonderful day.
Respectfully yours,
Missy
Ps unless you don't want her to know you commented on YT please tell your friend a grandma in California says congratulations and I hope her day turns out to be a best day EVER.
Have fun and dance, dance and dance some more.
@missmissy_90 Thank you, Missy. Neither one of us are drama seekers (except when I watch Charlotte 😆). We used to plan and coordinate weddings together all the time so she knows she can trust me with it. I am very excited to help with her wedding, and it will be super special since she officially beat cancer just in the last few months! ❤️
Wow that’s very kind of you to coordinate and plan a wedding for free. Those are expensive and stressful jobs, and they’re expensive for a reason!
My sister was my MOH but my best friend helped put my wedding together. When people care about you they aren't going to make the situation about them and their hurt feelings
You are a good friend
If the bride didn't even notice that someone else wore white, that means she was sure that it's her day and nobody could steal it even if they tried. She was content and happy, and she didn't need to search for drama. And now she has a fun story to tell😂😂😂
The baker should have added a clause to the contract that stated if payment was not received one month prior to the wedding the contract would be cancelled and the deposit would be non-refundable. If consequences are not laid out in firm language the baker will always be left without payment. It is not easy for soft hearted people to be firm but it is a skill that those who are self-employed need to learn.
Except people in the wedding industry do it because we love our couples most of the time. But it should never had gotten down to no payment even one week before!
My cousin's photographer edited a girl in white at her wedding to the most disgusting shade of brown possible. It was amazing. My cousin was very sad when she saw the girl in white in many pictures, so the photographer was like "i got you". And she did!
That is the utmost in caring professionalism
Baby poop brown?
Love love love this!
That's awesome, photograher said they knew the rules and I say they shall resemble their shitty actions
Bow featuring gross brown shade :D
😂 I love it!
When my best friend got married, she actually apologized to me for making her sister her maid of honor instead of me. I told her she has nothing to apologize for. I knew she would pick her sister and I didn’t have a problem with it at all. Just like she didn’t have a problem with me picking my sister. I don’t get women that get pissed off about that kind of thing. I was just happy to be included.
🫂 ❤
Agreed! When my best friend got married she asked two other friends we are both also close to to be her masters of ceremony. We all got together and she hadn't asked me and I just smiled and congratulated all of them, because they are lovely people. Then later it turned out she wanted me to be MOH and I was so so much happier still, but I wouldn't have mentioned anything even if she hadn't included me at all. Nobody owes you a place in their celebration and if you love them you accept their choices.
Honestly, I wouldn't want the pressure of being a MOH.
Oh it’s not just the women! 😭 my wedding party has no maid of honor or best man, primarily because of the groomsmen.
My sister and girlfriends have no problem with no official MOH, but my grandma was so upset! I just find the titles silly anyways.
Honestly, with how expensive everything is, I’d be perfectly fine just being included in the day and don’t feel the need to be in the party.
As a woman who wears modest clothes for religious reasons, I find this 'leave nothing to imagination' phrase so weird. I don't cover up to give something to your imagination to play with. In fact, kindly leave me out of your imagination altogether please and thank you. If you think someone's dressed immodestly, you always have a great option of not looking at them instead of shaming them.
Agreed! A women’s body is not something you need to be imagining, most religions I have encountered call that a sin of the mind, its improper thoughts. Modesty for a religious purpose has always been presented to me as part of one’s relationship with their higher power/creator. Every time I see or have an opinion on this matter, somehow it gets turned to involve the male gaze or the female judgment, but it has nothing to do with anyone but the individual, their religion, and maybe their loved ones.
yeah, I'm not religious but I agree that's such a gross phrase, like way to sexualize women whether they cover up or not, you really can't win sometimes.
Exactly! I’m Christian and we usually wear according to the occasion, but how would it make any sense to cover every single inch of my body to make a man feel some type of way?? Make it make sense! For the gym I usually do shorts (average short length) or leggings and an oversized t-shirt, meanwhile most girls wear tiny micro shorts and a tiny workout bras . Does that lady really think the gym dudes would be looking at me like “hmmm, I wonder what she looks like under all that fabric!!”? There could be weird men like this, but at my gym they are very respectful towards the ladies with tinier clothes (so I really can’t imagine them ever thinking I want to leave something for their “imagination” by wearing “too much clothing”)! 😂
Spoken like a true queen!
Yes! There is a thick layer of objetification in that phrase, I hate It so much. I also hate the modest trend too. I was created in a religious background and to this day I'm not fond of low clevages and tiny skirts but this never ocurred to me as something like a duty, I just wear what I like. People should be able to dress the way they want to either for religious reasons or not.
And a little bit off topic, people who dress "modestly" inside religious communities often face backlash when dressing differently but the opposite also happens, I cannot count the ammount of times people tried to push me to wear a bikini when I'm really confortable with my full piece bathing suit.
I love the modest dress, and i love that she designed it herself. But there is definitely no need to be negative towards others. Slay in your lane, ladies.
Slay!!!! 💅
The last one the MIL waited until the last minute so the cake artist would feel pressured by the upcoming deadline and know that she wouldn't be able to book something else in that time. So the MIL was hoping she would think some money is better than none and do the wedding at the reduced amount.
Exactly. She did it on purpose. People like that are so shameless.
MIL dont wanna she married her son.
And The fact that The son dont stand up speaks volumes that this married was setup up to fail.
🎯 BULLSEYE COMMENT
🥺So😢Sad😥Though😭💦💦💦
Yup. I am a pastry and dessert chef and when I cater wedding cakes, I have dealt with this dozens of times. They always scream when you say a deadline is a deadline and point out a contract was signed, especially when you remind them the deposit is nonrefundable.
My mom used to have a dress shop. Due to scandalous bridal dresses, the church here prohibited plunging necklines, backless, etc. So what my Mom did, she designed with either bolero, or detouchable top or collar but after the ceremony, we take it off for the photo op and reception 😂 my mom always say "you wont be thin forever, show it off now."
What an awesome idea sounds your mom was awesome
Well, I love moderst dresses. But I still think your Mother did great there! That is how a real profesional works!
Love your Mom❤❤❤❤
I wasn't thin but I showed off anyway!
@@cozeydazeYou had something to show, some nice curve 💅
There was this one girl in one of my college classes who came in one fuming! Like slamming books down on the desk and almost yelling at anyone who asked her what was wrong. The reason? Her sister was getting married and that morning her sister told her that she was going to have her best friend as the Maid of Honor. Girl was pissed that she wasn't going to be the MOH and was only going to be a "lowly bride's maid." Few weeks go by, and she starts ranting about being kicked out of the wedding party. Another week goes by and she's completely uninvited. Gee, I wonder why....
Obviously because her sister hated her...
Edit: Typo
@@aralornwolf3140 And it was painfully obvious why her sister didn't like her. A lot of people in class didn't care for her either for the same reason.
@@tigerdragon1982,
I was being sarcastic but... Yeah. With such an attitude... I hope you are never forced to do a group project with her, lol.
@@aralornwolf3140 It was years ago, before TikTok was a thing, and thank god there were no group projects in that class, lol.
Honestly I am very close to my sister but still she chose her two besties as MOH , and it's fine I guess sometimes it more exciting hanging out with ur friends than ur family , ur besties have different attitudes than ur siblings may have
That mother-in-law in the second story! She not only showed no respect for the cake-maker, she also showed no respect for her future daughter-in-law. She did whatever she was able to do to embarrass the couple at their wedding. The cake-maker was so kind and sweet to help out the bride as much as she was able to. That poor bride! So glad she divorced her weak-ass husband. I’m sure MIL had her part in that as well.
It’s because of this channel that I texted one of my best friends from college to apologize about wearing white to her wedding, because I literally had NO IDEA about this rule. She laughed and told me she didn’t care, and she didn’t notice. She said I should know her better than that. So happy no one at her wedding made an example of my ignorance. We are not all doing it on purpose!
I wore white dress to my best friend wedding too! But, it was my one and only dress, and it's color was more off-white, kinda gray. When she saw me, she politely comlimented me, but said it was not 'official enough, I want you to shine', opened her wardrobe and gave me like 5 more choices what I can wear (we were the same size). So I ended up in a super beautiful red dress I chose, and not white-gray sports-style dress I wore because it was all I had. And only five years later I heard about not wearing white to the wedding. Bestest of best friends I had there.
In my culture, it Red and Black also. Screw that. The bride will be the BEST looking person anyway, so it's okay.
The people featured in Charlotte's videos do. So there's that.
@elrennot thats so sweet of her. Glad to know you have people like that in your life!
@@debbysouthworth5606The person with the wine drizzled dress may not have known that rule. It really depends on their culture and socialization.
I wore an open back with spaghetti straps wedding dress. Many of my guests were religious and wore very modest dresses and even head coverings (think ultra-orthodox Jews). Other guests had outfits with short hems and cut-outs. The mix and variety are part of what made my wedding so special!
My first time commenting… I have 3 daughters. When they were in their teens, they agreed that they would not be MOHs at each others’ weddings. They didn’t want to have to be in the position of selecting a MOH between the two sisters. They’re all married now, and they all served as bridesmaids. They all selected their closest friend as their MOH. Charlotte, I LOVE your videos! I have been binge watching these past few weeks. I’m hooked! I even recommended you to my adult granddaughters (24 & 19). I figured that they could learn some life lessons from you. 😉☺️😃
I have six sisters. None but my oldest sister wanted to be mine. I’m glad she wanted to though. Because between my friends group, it would be oh so hard. There’s six of us, all brought together through me. It would be so rude to all of my friends if I chose one of them. So I lucked out
You're so sweet 🫂 ❤
I've never been married. I don't have any sisters. ALL my childhood and adult best friends ONLY have sisters, and there is quite an age difference between them (like 7-9 years). They are sisters but not close friends, if that makes sense. All of my friends have had their sisters as their MOH, and I've never felt any way about that. That's family! I'm here for the best friend insight for the girls celebrations! I love how your girls agreed to this to take the petty feelings out of this!
My husband and I chose the couple without whom we would have never met.
We have a thing called Trauzeuge for weddings in our country, they litterly sign on the marriage paperwork.
My cousins worked it out ahead of time when they were young, they would each be maid of honor at one of the other's wedding, so they all got to be maid of honor for one of their sisters.
My grandma had the best comeback to people who blamed their bad behaviour, mean girl crap on alcohol…. “A drunk person’s words are a sober person’s thoughts.”
Your grandma sounds wise af.
In vino veritas.
shes not the only one who says that. I think the same I always say "alcohol is the potion of truth" or serum of truth
In Charlotte’s words: “That’s what’s up!!!”
😜
Words AND actions!!
This has been making the rounds of Social media. There is photo of Charles and Diana during their wedding and in the crowd you can see Camilla dressed in white including a large white hat. Fast forward 30 years to the wedding of Charles and Camilla. Queen Elizabeth did not attend but there is a photo of her greeting afterwards. Her majesty is wearing a white dress that is almost identical to the one Camilla wore at Diana’s wedding including an almost identical big white hat.
😂😂😂😂 And no one is spilling wine on the Queen 😂😂😂😂 But Camilla was wearing pale blue instead, so supposedly it was so the Queen didn't clash with her.
Baller move, your Majesty. They don't make 'em like you anymore. RIP.
Wrong. Camilla was wearing grey, but it looked white due to the technology at the time (1981 cameras!) and the late Queen wore pale yellow to Charles' second wedding (and Camilla herself didn't even wear white either).
It's the expression on Elizabeth's face that says it all.😂 She knew what she was doing
@@kathydurow6814 legally, NO ONE can wear the same color as the queen at ANY event. This means Camilla HAD to wear a different color than white. And the Queen's outfit color was announced in advance so no one accidentally broke the rule.
My mom had a beautiful ivory/white dress that fit her so nicely. My Dad was dying of lung cancer while we were planning my wedding (we even moved our wedding hoping he’d be there, he died 10 days prior). Obviously she didn’t have time (or energy) to go dress shopping. She asked if I’d be upset if she wore that dress. I didn’t even know/care about others not wearing white. We had beautiful photos together.
The ONLY time a wedding guest should wear white is if it’s part of the dress code ON THE INVITATION. When my aunt got married she initially was gonna wear a white dress but fell in love with a gorgeous red gown that looked stunning on her. So she wore that dress and the groom wore a tuxedo with a red vest and bow tie, and the guest dress code was “black and white.” I myself wore a really cute dress that was white with black mixed patterns. But yeah, I would NEVER wear that dress to a wedding again unless there was a similar dress code.
“Nowhere did I call anyone out or judge anyone.” Bestie, you just called a whole group of women ugly.
And the pretty much the designers who made these dresses.
Is a backless dress really immodest? You could have a high neck, long sleeve, backless dress. Never thought about showing back being immodest.
@Garbeaux of course! That's the very thing your future husband will see when you unenthusiasticly, mechanically and without eye contact finally advance from soaking and not go to hell for it xD
@@RajetsuKibaoh yikes. Being upset about the words this girl uses to describe others is understandable. But, mocking the beliefs of an entire religion puts you in the same boat.
I wonder what she'd think of a Betazoid naked wedding.
The bride that didn't notice another woman wearing white at her wedding, she comes from a family of people who LIVE in the shadows, they didn't even tell the bride 😂❤❤❤
Probably because they didn’t want her to have that thought in the back of her mind the entire time. It’s her and her (now) husband’s day and they should be focused on each other. Leave the mild annoyances to the family, they got your back 😁
I went to a wedding once where the bride spent the entire wedding budget on a designer dress and an ice scupture. There was no food and only champagne. My friend and I paid a waiter to sneak into the country club bar and get us Diet Cokes because we were nursing and couldn't drink. It was a very odd night, but the dress was amazing!
Poor planner, she had different priorities
Terrible host manners. Can't believe they didn't have water or other non-alcoholic beverages available. And if I expect guests to bring a gift, at least I'd feed them.
That is just...no, lol.
@@gloriaalex11I can't believe the venue allowed that. At least have a cash bar, within alcoholic drinks available.
Not the ice sculpture, that takes the cake! (Literally!) 😂
Ppl forget being MOH is actually hard work they won’t be enjoying the wedding as much as the other bridesmaids and wedding guests. You have to literally be by the brides side at all times and ‘manage’ things so everything is picture perfect and as smooth as possible. Sometimes MOH does not mean you’re the best friend No1, but the friend that can handle the situation the best and can work well under pressure and not everyone is willing to do/ or be suitable for that role. Choose your MOH wisely 💕 ✨
Good advice. Mine did nothing to help me. My mother, who was busy with so many other things, had to help me into my wedding dress.
Amen!!! My MOH was my sister-in-law. Nothing was done except keeping her 3y/old out of trouble.
And later s-I-law turned into a monster that I will never speak to again… good thing I live 3/4 of the country away from them all.
I get ya cake lady! As a florist, been there done that. Fired a few brides in my day. The reason the prices goes up for weddings…a million emails, phone calls, changes and this type of BS.
To many people worry about the wedding and not the marriage. It’s sad how much drama can go on over one day.
So true. My niece’s MIL insisted on catering the reception herself. It was pretty much a disaster. I’ll spare you the details of the actual meal. I sat with my favourite Uncle and we just laughed our way through it. She apparently didn’t understand about cake supports because the wedding cake looked like it was about to slide off the back of the table it was on. We laughed about that too. It didn’t affect their marriage at all although I think her MIL does tend to want to be a bit interfering. Still, Brides get waaay too invested in all the fancy details and some irrational need for perfection. The prize is the actual wedding, the mate you’re swearing your future to, it’s better to relax and keep a sense of humour.
The more super elaborate weddings I see on the internet and bad things happening at weddings makes getting married in nature more and more appealing
I got married at a rustic lakeside resort, with a ‘wear western if you feel like it’ theme. Combined it with a family reunion so lots of people came. Barbecue, standard sides, and a Costco sheet cake. Lots of fun, still together 30 years later. Would recommend.
It was both of our 2nd marriage and we had kids so no money. We got married at the courthouse on our day off and it's been 42 years. We're blessed with 4 sons, his, mine and ours. Plus 15 grandkids and our 1st great grandbaby girl is due in 3 weeks. Marriage is more important than a damn wedding.
@@Nanahux I also like what my cousin and her now ex did. They were in the military stationed in Texas while her family is here in Minnesota. They had a courthouse wedding and had a big first anniversary party here when they moved
People should put a disclaimer about wearing white or white looking colors on the day of the wedding on the invites. "Anyone who is seen wearing white or white looking colors on the day of the wedding other than the bride will have something red thrown at them. By attending, you comply to the agreement. Come at your own discretion!"
Agreed but it’s crazy that even needs to be a thing 😩 some people are so selfish
It’s considered tacky and that’s why people don’t do it it’s ridiculous people would wear white
Actually it’s a cultural I think I guess, it is not a big deal in some countries like in North Africa where my parents are from, unless you dress with like a big white wedding gown no one is gonna care if you wear white , sometimes even the close family wears white. Maybe it’s not a big deal cause in North African weddings the bride wears up to 7 different dresses or traditional clothes for her big day and even the guests change their outfits several times.
Been in a wedding lately. Usually it wouldn't be acceptable to wear white or white-adjacent colors but because of the theme, which was Filipiñna, we were given a pass.... since a lot of clothes in that style available commercially were made in white or white-adjacent. Especially those made in pinya cloth. This wedding was made known to us quite recently too so there was no time to get anything sewn.
That's exactly what I plan on putting on my invitations
The first story is wild to me. My best guy friend was getting married and his fiancé and I were instantly best friends. She had two besties from her hometown and she told me she didn’t know who she should pick as her MOH. She told me she felt like I should be it because we were so close. I was absolutely flattered and would have been so happy to do it, but told her to pick one of the other two girls because she had grown up with them. I think we need to remember that we don’t get to dictate or be angry with the decisions the bride and groom make. We are there to show our love and support and to celebrate the newly married couple. ❤
You are a true friend
@@ellemmenn2930 Thank you!
LOVE THIS. Great advice! You definitely are a wonderful TRUE friend. They are lucky to have you!! Best wishes to you ALL!!💖
@@ellemmenn2930That’s nice of you😊 who did she end up choosing in the end ?
@@wartanabadanooh7157 She chose the one who she had known the longest (I think she met one in elementary school and the other when she was a little older). She said they practically lived at one another’s houses growing up.
I make custom cakes. It’s not cheap to make, nor does it takes minutes to make.. it takes HOURS to bake, prep and decorate… and then they ask for you to deliver it. ❤
I gasped outloud at the last cake story. RUN BRIDE RUN!!!!!
As a baker who does weddings these always boggles my mind 😅 Cake and sweets are a LOT of work! I just did my best friend's 3-tier cake and 80 cupcakes. It took me about a week and was paid $500 (I gave her a huge discount lol) and made almost no profit because of materials, packaging, and specialty ingredients. Not to mention the time and stress that goes into this line of work. Cake designers and bakers are so unappreciated. This is INCREDIBLY common.
The way Charlotte says “my pearls” 😂 You know it’s gonna be a good video
A while back she said she's not classes enough for pearls I disagree if I had the means I'd buy her pearl I think she awesome such a kind and beautiful lady
Love Charlotte, her content is amazing!
She needs a real strand of pearls to clutch for these occasions. That would be funny af 😅
Lol i work at a home decor store and people really do come in, look at an item, and go "I like the item but not that price. What can you do for me?" Bish this ain't a flea market. If you don't like the price than leave.
I've worked in a restaurant and people would also bargain there! How impolite!
I'm a bridesmaid in a wedding that's coming later this year and THE ONLY REASON is because the bride knows that I'm the friend who will throw red wine on someone for wearing white to her wedding. She told me that this is my only job as a bridesmaid so that her maid of honor can be the "good guy" and ask the offender to leave, and i can be the "bad guy" with the wine if they fail to do so.
I’d rather have the job without having to buy a new dress but I like it.
You can be some sort of undercover bridesmaid, no need to dress like a bridesmaid, your only duty is spill the red wine... 007 bridesmaid licence to spill
Perhaps send in The Good Guy first, to ask said idiot to go change, and Good MOH will gently whisper "Or the alternative is to wear red wine all over the back of your skirt - with no more warning"....
Your bouquet is made entirely of those joke squirt flowers, filled with merlot
@@lucabaroni7715, "007 license to spill" 😂 Genius!
That wedding dessert tale was gripping!! I book corporate events and you MUST pay your vendors if you want your event to be a success!!! And it’s hard to execute everything on your own - that’s why we have vendors.
I was with a mommas boy who constantly told me I wasn’t good enough for my partner cause I have bipolar 1 disorder, eventually he caved and broke up with me. It ruined me. I loved him so much that my heart has never been the same. It’s been 13 years and after A-LOT I’m just starting to get over it and understand it wasn’t my fault. I’m now 43 and I’ve chosen to stay single and help look after my parents with their aging health problems and my heart has never felt lighter.
I'm so very sorry!!!
You did not deserve that.
You are worthy of so very much better. ❤
That's vile, what was done to you.
Though I can promise you, that you are probably better off without the "man" who refused to stand up for you.
That kind of attitude & behavior rarely changes after marriage, unfortunately.
As I know far too well.
You need a partner who is *_~ON YOUR SIDE~_*
FIRST, FOREMOST, & ALWAYS.
Mama's boy children will never be decent _HUSBANDS, & FATHERS,_
as they are expected to be THEIR _MOMMY'S HUSBAND,_ FIRST, FOREMOST, FRONT & CENTER.
MOMMIES LIKE THAT NEVER ALLOW THE "OTHER WOMAN" to WIN.
I wish you a good, kind, decent fully-SINGLE man, someday,
if you still may want a partner (& a male partner).
It is a véry worthy pursuit--
looking after your parents, & your elders.
God bless you, your parents, your family, & your future. ❤
Your ex and his mother deserve each other. You deserve love and a real man to stick up for you and be your support. I hope you don’t give up on true love ❤

As someone who had a modest wedding dress, I don't understand brides tearing other brides down because of their choice of dress. Wear whatever you feel and look beautiful and confident in! And don't worry about what other people say! It's your dress and your wedding!
THIS!
Honestly the number of brides online that do this scare me a lot. My boyfriend and I are nowhere near the engagement stage let alone marriage stage and we're both set on me not only having a non stereotypical wedding dress (I'm either going to have an emo themed one or a sailor moon one in the style of dresses from the 15th-16th centuries) but I've made a vow that I'm going to make it myself because I'm a pretty competent seamstress and know my body better than a lot of dressmakers would do (body is of abnormal proportion and not a standard hourglass in proportion which is hard to cater for)
@@Nekogal21 I love that. My dress was blue and champagne. The original colors before the 1800's were black, brown, gray and blue because they were easy to come by in the time and white was reserved for funerals.
@Nekogal21 that sounds so cool! And I think that's awesome that you plan on making your own dress!!! Rock on, girl! I wish I had more skill with sewing. My mom helped me extend the sleeves on my wedding dress. I wanted it long sleeved with extra decorative lace since I was having a winter wedding. And instead of the traditional veil, I had a royal blue velvet cape. In fact, my profile pic is one of my favorite photos from my bridal shoot.
@@jbkoch96 I actually never had any idea what colours people wore pre 19th century for weddings. That's a pretty fascinating fact. Without putting white down because it's still pretty I'm going to bring as much colour as I can without looking over the top
The bride in the last video should have called off the wedding as soon the mother-in-law started bickering about the cake cost . It would have saved her the pain of the divorce and the embarrassment of a wedding . Also , Charlotte saying "that's a plot twist" with the same expression as "Clutching my pearls" . 😂
She might have gotten assets from the divorce. Maybe the bride wasn't stupid at all. 😉
I agree. I know the cake artist suffered because of the MIL but she wasn't the one MIL was trying to hurt. She was saying her soon-to-be DIL wasn't worth it. It was a huge red flag that the groom wasn't dealing with his mother. The bride either missed it or hoped it would get resolved after the wedding. Spoiler Alert: If you don't take care of the problem before the wedding, it only gets worse from there.
I was bridesmaid for my bestie. She had a small wedding so I was the only bridesmaid. All her other g/friends double downed on me, saying I was only bridesmaid because bride felt sorry for me for losing my partner 5 months
The fact I had been there to help her organised the wedding, helped her pick her dress and looked after her 3 kids while she was away on her honeymoon ment nothing to them. They did nothing.
Wow, her other friends are trash, it's no accident she picked you as her MOH, lol, you are an *awesome* friend!
I have so much love for women who wear immodest dresses. Y'all have so much confidence in your bodies and it shows. 10/10 y'all slay
Okay, the adorable girl talking about the men girls bridesmaid while playing with her food with a plastic fork and her fingers while never showing taking a bite is absolutely sending me over the edge.
In Germany, we don't have bridesmaids, a MOH, or a best man - and that's good, looking at all the drama presented on this channel.
My MIL made my wedding cake herself: a three-tiered sponge cake with jam and buttercream filling. She had a little help from her aunt and me with decorating. It was gorgeous and it tasted like heaven. Our marriage lasted until my husband passed away. And my MIL was the best MIL you can imagine.
You always marry the family not only the spouse. Keep this always in the back of your head.
Sorry for your loss🙏🏼
iN gERmAnY- whatever, good for you.
However, it doesn't always go poorly having Maids and Men of Honor in a wedding party. Plenty work out just fine every day. You can't judge traditions by Reddit posts intended to share drama.
@vocexseta interesting since the weddings I went to in Germany, they did have a bridal party. My best friend, who is German, her son just got married and they had brides maids and groomsmen.
@@My3gifts It would be interesting to know where in Germany that wedding took place and the background of the families. There may be other traditions in other parts of the country and families with different nackgrounds - or movies and tv influenced the couple to have an "English" (tradition in English speaking countries) wedding.
I'm from the southwest of Germany and both our families have protestant backgrounds and no migration history, We had 2 "Trauzeugen" (both male, but you can choose whoever you want) for the civil ceremony (mandatory) at the town registry (Standesamt). The church ceremony was the same as every one I attended before or after. No one beside my husband and me walking down the aisle together.
@@vocexseta Are you Alright? She wasn't criticizing.
The majority of cultures around the world do not have the concept of bridesmaids, MOH, and best man, even though best friends and close family members still play important roles in the ceremony. While “iT doEsn't alWayS Go pooRly haVing mAids and mEn of hoNor in a weDding Party,” it is still a very expensive and wasteful 'tradition' that brings a lot of drama, instead of allowing the bride and groom to enjoy their special day with their loved ones. But to each their own 👍
I'm so glad that in my culture, we don't have to deal with this "don't wear white at a wedding" stuff, some people will even come wearing their actual sari they got married in to other people's weddings and they'll still never even hope of outshining the bride. In my culture, weddings are for everyone to look good and celebrate the couple together, without being too finnicky about the colour of clothes that people wear- even non-brides can wear the same shade of red the bride's wedding sari will usually be. I enjoy seeing all the guests dressed to the nines at weddings and sharing makeup and bindi and helping each other with pins and fixing each other's hair. One of my favourite parts of Indian weddings is seeing what everyone is wearing tbh. Also the food. And the opportunity to catch up with family and friends while being dressed in your best and most beautiful outfits- makes me feel like a princess at a royal event lol
Films I’ve seen of Indian weddings look so joyous
Ikr ! People genuinely having fun at the wedding. One of my college bestie was hitched 2 years back and it was the coolest thing ever! Everyone including me wore colorful, blingy and beautiful saris, jewelleries. Had our hair done and had an amazing ceremony! 👏 Everyone was happy around us and nobody 'outshined' the bride. It was her day and she was happy ❤ Nothing else mattered! ❤
Not an Indian but I'm glad I don't have to deal with other people's cultures either.
Most people prefer their own.
That's really nice! Before Queen Victoria started the trend about 120 or so years ago, people here just wore the nicest dress they had to their wedding (or had a dress made which after the wedding just was their nicest dress in the closet). Much more sustainable than spending thousands of $ or € or whatever on a dress that is only worn for a few hours.
What are you talking about. All the woman and aunties who come looking like a gold shop trying to out do the bride definitely get side eyes from us. Maybe it's just a younger gen thing
As an artist, it so upsetting to see how people undervalue our skills and refuse to pay what we’re worth or even be respectful 🤬
Yeah I hate it, it takes years of invisible work to build your repertoire and improve your skills, if you can't afford it stop being rude and wasting the artist's time... You could get them to lower the price but don't expect it, there was this one guy in my uni that made great portraits, I wanted to gift a friend of mine a drawing of us 2 together in our first day at uni, but when I asked for the prices I saw it was outside of my budget, I clearly deflated and the artist was like "how much can you pay" I said to nevermind cus I didn't want to take advantage but he was so kind and was like "ok what If instead of my normal drawings I make something simpler... I could charge x instead " I was so happy cus that was something I could afford, it was a great deal and the final product was beautiful.
Yeah, but don't forget: We get EXPOSURE!!
(Please note: That's sarcasm."
That's what I'm saying! I charge a lot for my cakes because it takes so much time making from scratch, and they're quality. I gave my friend a huge discount of $500 for her wedding (I was working with her budget and at least wanted to cover materials... and she's like a sister to me so this was my wedding gift to her), but normally for a big 3-tier cake and 80 cupcakes, altogether 6 flavors from scratch, I'd be charging at least $900 give or take, probably more. Because cake making is not easy and can be very expensive depending on where you get your ingredients or how big the order is. I wish people could understand that more.
I’ve known my SIL since I was 3, we’ve always been close and she’s been my family for as long as I can remember. My cousin is really like my big brother, so we three have always been fairly close-knit. I was one of her bridesmaids for their wedding in 2015, along with her three sisters and a few friends I’ve also known for years. My SIL’ MOH was her best friend that she’s known since high school. Her sisters understood, obv you can’t pick only one when there are three sisters, and everyone has always been close with everyone. My feelings weren’t hurt or anything, I honestly was just happy to be included in the wedding party. They’ve been together since 2006, just celebrated their 8th anniversary in October, and had my two nephews birthday in December 😊 (the moh is still around, has her own kids the same age as my nephews, and even moved in across the street from my SIL. We absolutely love them:))
As a retired baker I just want to say a wedding cake usually involves 2 or 3 different kinds of cake, 2 or 3 different fillings, icing, fondant and or marzipan, plus decorative do dads and/or fresh flowers. Plus support beams, special plates and fixtures to hold it all together. It's like building a freaking building from scratch. It takes A LOT of time, skill, experience. Then you have to deal with brides and mothers. And you need to transport the giant cake, in pieces, to the venue, set it up, and finish it on site. TELL ME HOW IS THAT NOT WORTH >$1,000???
IF I ever get married again, I'm gonna request that ALL of my guests wear their wedding dress or whatever dress made them feel the most confidant & stunning, in their whole lives. Men too, will _need_ to feel like they're SO good looking & great feeling that their _very presence_ might set the room on fire! This is the very bestest thing about 2nd marriages, getting to starting some wonderful & super fun traditions. Love life, we only get one! 💕
Ah ........ refreshing 🍃🍃🍃
@@ach13ng The 2nd time round we can do all the crazy stuff that we wish we'd thought of for the 1st wedding.
That is so amazing!
That's a wonderful idea 😃
I love this. Give them a chance to wear it again
About the prices for weddings skyrocketing, recently there was a case about this my country (Brazil), about the prices for brides being more expensive, so a woman asked for a "social makeup", that cost R$120-160, (because she was on a budget) and not a bridal makeup (that was R$2000+). The makeup artist saw her post and the lie, so she went out on social media, and the bride responded.
Ok, ok, sneaky bride is what I love! But what did she respond with?
@@Diridonda the bride said about the budget and that is was just a little party after signing the documents, and the makeup artist said that the mother in law (of the bride), another girl and the bride started telling a story about the makeup being for a christening and that she wasn't happy about discovering the lie and started showing the differences in her package (it was a lot of stuff hahahaha). Sorry if any mispelling
If you are embarrassed about the truth of your price gouging... don't do it. Sucks to suck.
Love this I mean she can just want social makeup for my wedding
Spilling shot glasses was probably the greatest party game during that reception 😂😂😂
IT Sound so funny
When my ex and I were getting married, the catering company canceled 4 days before the wedding. He said he got a higher-paying gig so he had to cancel ours. It was absolute chaos.
Wtf😮
If you signed a contract for the service you should have some legal recourse for being left high and dry at the last minute!!!
I went to a wedding once where several of us who traveled stayed overnight in the venue the evening before. That morning, after helping decorate for a while, I went to change into my outfit for the evening and only then realized that I’d packed a SOLID WHITE dress. I didn’t even think, it was just the newest thing I had. The guy who drove me to a local goodwill that morning was a real life saver!
My sister (and MOH) told me about how she had to straight up shut down my mom and grandma while dress shopping. Apparently, neither of them thought there was anything wrong with wearing white to my wedding
I strongly believe now, Wedding, Funeral and Reunion are nothing but an event to understand actual human behavior and how people feel about you.
Love your content Charlotte! Keep going ❤
Aw, the southern bride with the mean girls that talked shit behind her back…. Is STUNNING!! So gorgeous! And I love her southern accent!
They're clearly jealous of her. Too bad for them! That girl is sweet and beautiful.
Yeah! I could barely pay attention to the story as she was incredibly gorgeous 😍mind that I have had a stressful day and am nursing 😅
She was so proud of her modesty... PROUD IS THE OPPOSITE OF MODEST.
That wedding cake story was ridiculous! Enjoy your Walmart cake!
One of my besties that lives in England is getting married to her long term bf and I’m so happy for them 😭 I wish I could get over there but she knows I’ll be there for her in spirit!! That’s how friendships should be.
I didn’t even technically get an invite but it’s not the first friend I haven’t been invited to their wedding cause they were keeping it small and mostly family which is totally understandable ❤
Their day is their day, I’m just happy they found their person x
The girl with the jealous bridesmaid ...was the CUTEST!! The little "excuse me!" when she had a hiccup. She's adorable ❤
Agreed, and her vibe was also lovely.
No I came here to make sure someone else said this lol. I cannot get over how adorable she is.
I recently watched a story about a couple that didn’t want to pay for a wedding venue so they wedding bombed a coffee shop in Indiana. They blocked the door and the path for customers going in and out, moved the furniture, and held an entire ceremony. They were there for like 2-3 hours and left. Did not have permission (this shop does catering events). Refused to pay anything even after the fact. It’s a crazy story.
That’s disgusting
@@KnawedOneRight. Horrible.
FWIW, I googled that because it's baffling. The bride had indeed contacted the owner of the shop but he admits he forgot to tell the manager. The owner thought the couple was just going to do paperwork or something at the coffee shop. The bride was sorry about the mixup and offered money after the whole thing even though the owner had not asked for any. 'Cause, yeah, the original version was just bewildering.
the girl who i considered my best friend of 17+ years didn't even tell me when her wedding date was. i found out she got married from her parents social media. her reasoning was that she was embarrassed that it was such a small wedding. I'm now living my best life without a "best friend" who thinks so little of me.
Similar thing happened to me. Best friend of like 16 years and I didn't find out she was even engaged until I got engaged and I told her! Then was talking to her about my wedding date and turns out she was having her wedding the week after me and she had no intention of inviting me
@@FloCrothat's so sad did you find out why
That's $3- per guest for wedding cake and a desert table. I can't even go to the in-store bakery and get a single layer piece of snack cake for $3-. Definite sabotage! 🍰
As Christian who wants to be married, I would NEVER say anything like that, God gave us free will and even if I don't like something doesn't mean I can force anyone else.
When a former housemate of mine was getting married he specifically asked me if it was okay if he asked another friend, who he had known for several years before we met and began rooming together. I appreciated that he'd asked me (and even that he had considered me) and told him that it was up to him who he chose to stand up with him so there was no problem. I was, however, a guest at the wedding and I felt so happy that he'd found love again. The wedding was beautiful, and I remained friends with both him and his bride until his unfortunate demise (through a heart attack). It was the second marriage for both of them and their families blended well, as her children were friends with his long before they (their children) worked together to get him and her together.
I had a modest wedding dress and an immodest reception dress. I had a great time and loved both of my dresses.
That's a great idea!
My goodness I have 2 besties since elementary school were now 55. We weren’t even invited to each other’s weddings. Just the way things worked out. The love is there the loyalty is there. But heck no drama.
It's hella weird that y'all didn't invite each other though lmfao
My wedding dress was very modest... A high v neckline, big long trumpet sleeves, and floor length mermaid skirt with a train. Not gonna lie though girl was tiiiiiiiiiiight and I loved how it fit me so so much.
I really love her sweater ✨
For my friends wedding we made titles for everyone. I was the only one married so I was the matron of honor, her sister was the maid of honor, the sister in law was the sister of honor, we had a man of honor and my personal favorite the bartender of honor.
Love that idea! No one could be upset about what they were called and it truly does honor everyone.
Your wedding videos have literally been the highlight for me the last couple of months. I’m in the process of planning my wedding and these videos are my go tos every day.
Perks of being close with your sister. No one expected to be my MOH cause they knew it’d be her.
I’m grateful for mine, because all seven of my friends only know each other and hang with each other because they met through me. It would be so hard to choose without hurting one of their feelings.
Having siblings on either side could be a perk really. My friend was MOH for her future SIL even though she had only met her 2-3 times, she lives across the country. The bride had 2 bestfriends and didn't want to choose so my friend had the official title and stood next to her. My friend jokes at least she got to know the bride over champagne in the bridal suite.
The young lady that was bullied is so so pretty, maybe jealousy had something to do with the bullying. Enjoy your life with your husband. You are beautiful.
Modesty starts with humility. That bride must have missed that lesson.
You will never stop people from hating it's human instinct. . what you can do is embrace the hate the more they hate it the more you say I love it I love it .
I love taking up free space in others minds. It’s comforting to know someone is thinking of me. Lol
@@erikarussell1142Savage, ❤❤❤❤😂😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉🎉
That does nothing but let them make the decisions for you. You are better off making your choices and ignoring the “haters” because usually they are just attention seeking toddlers at heart. The best revenge is a life lived well…and without any consideration for your haters.
@@TheBaumcm but when you embrace the hate and say I love it just because you hate it makes them even matter
You're right, a bridal party with picking your friend order feels very MySpace top 8
For some women they dream of a certain wedding dress since they were children. Why would any woman bring somebody else down because they want to wear backless or sleeveless or whatever. I say girls do what makes you happy it's your one and only wedding day hopefully lol so live it up sissssttaasssss!
The first case.... I kept watching that damn fork that kept filling up with food and not being eaten!!!
The white dress one. My daughter and I have joked about this multiple times. Being hired out for weddings, and anyone that shows up in white, we'll pour all the red wine on it you want. 🍷🍷🍷🍷
I have always felt like Flowers, Photography, and Cake/Catering are the most justified in charging higher prices because of the nature of the deliverables. Flowers and food ingredients are EXPENSIVE without the wedding word being applied, and photographers spend HOURS shooting, and even more HOURS editing your album to look beautiful and document your day.
Wedding price gauging is definitely a thing, but those specific areas I don't believe gauge.
The little boy with the porridge clip that you shared. I reference that clip more often than I care to admit. And it made me happier than you know to see it here. Every time I do it my kids make fun of me whenever they ask for more or seconds. I will do the whole bit and it's weird anyway, thank you.
Made my bday
Well, it is Oliver Twist.
With my friend’s wedding, it was less ‘this is my best/favourite friend’ or even longest friend. It was just, ‘who has time and energy to work with me on the wedding?’ And y’know who would actually want to work on it with her. Idk, to me that seemed like the most reasonable choice
A true friend is one who defends you in rooms you are not in.
I make wedding cakes and they take a long time to perfect. The vendor was extremely gracious and all people think they can bake professionally. I cannot tell you how many attempt pics I get sent to me 😂😂 xx
My wedding was in India. Not one person in my family came. The only person on the brides side was my husband’s auntie who flew with me and helped me out with customs and religious stuff.
It was still a wonderful experience.
My suit was royal blue and I had the ladies that came wear their bridal dresses cause they were all different shades of reds.
I make custom cheesecakes. Recently I made a champagne and chocolate covered strawberry cheesecake. It cost me over $50 just for the out of season berries and champagne. So I can't imagine doing an entire dessert table plus a wedding cake and having somebody try and cheap out on something that elaborate. I would have stopped the entire process until payment was received. If not, tough bananas.
That Cheese cake sounds amazing ❤
Honestly, I don’t even think MIL didn’t think the cake was overpriced. I think she was doing everything she could to sabotage the wedding/marriage. That’s why she never even picked up the supermarket cake. Fine. Trash took itself out.
I had no idea about the white dress rule. Thankful I don’t go to weddings. Already struggle socially so weddings terrify me and I just avoid. Now I’m even more terrified 😂
99% of the rules for weddings are: do not outshine the bride.
As the bride is traditionally dressed in white do not dress in white, just like you wouldn't arrive late or go through the church to meet the groom at the altar.
If the bride decides to change things up you'll be told so (for example if a bride decided to wear red the invitation would specify not to wear red. if the bride would like all her guests to wear light blue the invitation will say so. and it should specify hat or no hat, although that has nothing to do with the bride but with whatever her mother decides to wear)
Final cake / MIL: I bet MIL swooped in and said “ don’t worry hon, I’ll take care of the balance for the cake and dessert” thinking how much could it be? They’ve already paid some . . . Expected $400 and finds out it’s $1200. 😅😅
I learned this lesson the hard way when my son was married and we paid for the rehearsal dinner (among many many things) but the RD was at the bride’s parent’s house and bride’s mom was very particular. She wanted food ordered from a local restaurant for 20 people. Okay I said. She ordered it, I paid. Then she wanted a cheese tray. The restaurant didn’t provide cheese trays, so I just said “no problem, want me to pick one up on the way there?” No, bride’s mom says. She knows a place. (I don’t really care for cheese, but the restaurant food was sort of “middle class” food, so I figured the cheese tray would be comparable) plus she said she was only ordering a cheese tray for 10 people since it was more of an appetizer.
That 10-person cheese tray was $300. I could have DIED. Lesson learned. “Reasonable cost” is relative. You know when I got there the first thing I checked out was that damn cheese tray and it was the skimpiest thing of like Swiss, cheddar and Brie I’d ever seen. I could have spent $100 on cheese and made something much nicer. Good lordt. (And you know I got that receipt!)
This first girl steady touching her fork was bothering me 😂
At least we didn’t have to watch her eat 🤮
She was playing with those noodles! Gross 😂
SAME! It kind of irritates me whenever I see a video where someone is talking and eating. Like, you are intentionally filming this video to TALK, why wouldn't you wait until after you're done to eat? Especially if you're going to sit there and mess with your food while you talk, like, put the fork down, do one or the other! Other than that she was cute, lol.
😂 Saaaaaaame!!!
Me Toooooo..yuk. Fingering food?

charlotte that blue sweater looks great with your hair 😻
Right! Redheads are always told to wear green but this blue is stunning on her.
Marriage is a beautiful union between two people who commit to love, support, and cherish each other for a lifetime. A wedding is a celebration of this commitment, bringing together family and friends to witness and celebrate the love shared by the couple as they embark on a new chapter together.
20:15 When I was a kid i would rewind this part of Aladdin over and over. It was a stim for me. I havent seen it in a while and seeing it here i was suddenly flashbacking to my childhood 😂
Maybe that is where I learned sarcasm from. Memory unlocked.
My husband and I went I to our wedding with the mindset that we'd pay for everything ourselves. Help was welcomed, but not expected.
Then cv happened and we ended up having it in the backyard 😂 It was still beautiful and fun and the best day of my life 💜
Regarding the last story... With such a mother in law in mind, I'm actually happy mine just didn't come to our wedding 😅
Playing with her food was driving me nuts!!
Lol i literally scrolled down here to see if i were the only one getting annoyed by that shit thank god i was not the only one😂
I once made a sweet table, lemme tell youuuu the time and dedication it takes....the moldable decorations... I swear I had a trauma and said I would never ever do it again😂 and I didn't, and I wouldn't. Respect to the ones that actually enjoy doing it.
That first girl pushing her food onto her fork tho . . . What is that?? 😂😂
This annoyed me so much, she kept taking food on her fork, never ate.
I talk with my hands as well so if my food flew off my fork while talking I'm gonna be mad as hell 😂
Same! It was so distracting. Why is she playing with her food? 😂
THIS! Idk why but it’s triggering me 😆
@@isabelhamilton-green9268drove me crazy. I came here for this comment. It's like just tell a story OR eat, or own eating while telling a story. But she just kept dapping her fingers onto food. GET FINGER FOOD.
I love your little lessons on common decency 😊 and yes , that girl's face is the cutest thing I've ever seen 😭✨️🩷✨️
The whole red wine concept is incredible but hear me out MUSTARD 😂
Red wine is better; the smell of the mustard would permeate the air…
I love your sweater Charlotte. Turquoise is a great color on you!
This is so random and off topic, but seeing the first girl being Latina with a draw, literally made me so happy lol people always question my Latin roots because of my accent and called me a coconut and even my own family from Mexico made fun of me, so to see another southern Latina really made my day lol💕
I feel so seen every time you say "I love your face" and make squishing motions with your hands 😂. I've been saying that for around 15 years. My kids are so used to it that they just present their faces for squishing without being asked😂😂😂
