Bridesmaid Horrors?

Do you have any crazy stories from being in a bridal party? Like wearing your hair some crazy way, or having to wear crazy nail polish???

my friend told us what color nail polish, how to do our hair, said we could not wear bracelets bc it would distract attention from our flowers...and the list goes on....she was a major control freak!!

I've only been in one wedding and she wasn't bad at all...she did pick a dress that I didn't love (but I looked fine in it) and told us we should all wear silver shoes. But she gave us Coach stuff as a gift so i wasn't complaining

I was FG in like 30 weddings (ok...maybe 10) and I wore ugly dresses...

I was MOH in my sister's wedding and she was totally cool. I got to pick out the dress I wanted, wear my own shoes as long as they were gold, wear my own jewelry and do my hair however I wanted. I am going to extend the same courtesy to her now that she's my MOH.

LoL for all the people who asked... there aren't too many guidelines about physical qualities, like I'm not a pyscho ***** that says don't get fat. It's more so discipline. I want all the girls to be selfless that day and be catering to my every need. When I was MOH for my sister I felt that all the BM's could have done more for the bride and not have cared so much about themselves for that day. There are some physical demands, like having the right length of hair and not spray tanning. HAHA I am crazy. My friends are expecting it from me, so knowing that I kind of went overboard and made it really long.

No horror stories abt the bride, but her MIL and SIL policed what make-up we wore before we left the hotel room we all got ready in! She even brought makeup that we all 'had' to use. Most of us did what ever we wanted anyways especially since most of us in the Bridal Party don't wear makeup on an everyday basis, and she picked very noticeable colors that would be caked on our faces...yuck!
