She didn't order her dress on time, has criticized all of your ideas, and said what behind your back to another bridesmaid? If your bridesmaids have been acting up -- you're not alone. Here are some of the worst bridesmaid stories we've ever heard.
THE DRESS-LESS BRIDESMAID
"My former BFF was supposed to be a bridesmaid in my wedding. About eight months before my wedding, she informed me that she had purchased her dress. However, three months beforehand she called to confess that she really hadn't purchased her dress even though I sent her a link of the exact dress to purchase and the store to purchase it at. By that time the dress was sold out. I finally told her that she could choose any dress that she liked or already owned as long as it was the same color as the other bridesmaid dresses. When I spoke with her a month later, she still had not picked out a dress (not even from her own closet)!" ---marie79
THE MIA BRIDESMAID
"My fiance's sister was only my bridesmaid because she was family, but she was careless and annoying throughout the whole planning process. I had two maids of honor, and they both had to repeatedly hunt her down for answers because she would never respond to their phone calls, voicemails, or emails. She was even late to my shower, and her gift was secondhand lingerie in three different sizes -- none of which were my size. Finally, she blew me off (along with my other bridesmaids) the night of my bachelorette party." ---ShannersLA
THE JEALOUS BRIDESMAID
"Long story short, she tried to sabotage my wedding, told my husband that she loved him, refused to buy the shoes, and disappeared the morning of the wedding. Oh, and did I mention she told my husband that she loved him? Word of advice, NEVER put your future husband's childhood gal pals in your wedding." ---FB Melinda

THE BUBBLY BRIDESMAID
"One of my bridesmaids tried to open a bottle of champagne the morning of my wedding, and it exploded all over both bridesmaids dresses, the flower girl dress, and my wedding dress! All she did was laugh...I wanted to kill her. It also got all over the room we were renting, and she didn't even bother to clean up her mess." ---Beck8788
THE WEEPY BRIDESMAID
"My maid of honor's boyfriend got so wasted at the wedding that he threw up in the washroom and passed out, so she cried about it (she never cries!) saying she ruined my wedding. Thankfully this was at the end of the night." ---FB Allisha

THE CHILDISH BRIDESMAID
"I had a 'bridesmaid-zilla' as my wedding coordinator affectionately called her. We had made special arrangements for her to have a vegetarian meal during the reception, but she threw a fit when it came time to eat. She didn't like any of the adult appetizers and insisted on having the fruit cup from the children's meal. When the entrees arrived, she wanted the chicken fingers from the same menu. My wedding coordinator deserves a lot of credit though because I had no idea this took place until the other bridesmaids told me at the end of the night." ---Jacquers
THE MEAN GIRLS BRIDESMAID
"My sister was one of my bridesmaids. She called me 'fat' on the day of the wedding and then caused a huge scene at the reception because her boyfriend snuck alcohol into our church reception so they could both get drunk." ---*HoneydewChestnut*
