5. It Was a Letdown
I worked as a wedding videographer. This is the only Bridezilla I encountered in ten years. This girl was so self-centered she kept everyone waiting at her outdoor ceremony for more than an hour while she was pampered in the makeup chair. While she’s having them redo this and touch up that, she’s sort of making up her wedding vows in a very relaxed, casual manner completely inappropriate for the hundred people sweating under full summer sun waiting on her. Her aunt came in and very gently reminded her people were waiting on her and that it’s been more than an hour and she threw a tantrum, screaming, “I feel like everyone’s forgetting this is MY DAY!!!”
Eventually, she comes out, “vows” are lame and borderline incoherent, and one of the groomsmen, sweltering undercoat and vest and shirt and sun, passes out from heat exhaustion. The officiant whispers to ask the couple if they should stop and make sure he’s okay and she goes, “Nah, he’s just being dramatic, keep going!”
As the couple is headed back up the aisle, an ambulance can be seen arriving to tend to the poor overheated groomsman.
