Your friend's just got engaged and has chosen you as her bridesmaid.
1. And while you're very excited, it's not quite what it's cracked up to be.
Sorry, I can't go out with you tonight because I spent my entire paycheck on your wedding festivities. #bridesmaidproblems
2. Because all of a sudden, you're the most skint you've ever been.
When the alterations cost just as much as the dress you're never going to wear again #bridesmaidproblems
Welp. The alterations are officially more expensive than the dress. Oy. #bridesmaidproblems (@ Fashion Cleaners) http://t.co/NlRHUIch4e
LOVE my friends, but I hope no one gets engaged for a while b/c I'd love to have disposable income again! #bridesmaidproblems
I didn't realize that as you get older, it becomes more and more expensive to have good friends... #bridesmaidproblems
3. And your social life has gone out of the window.
And while my friends are all at the Celtics game tonight I will be baking and making wedding scrapbook pages #BridesmaidProblems
Everyone going to the harvest festival but im stuck doing wedding related things . #Bridesmaidproblems
Oh you wanna hang out? I'm available after July.. #BridesmaidProblems #weddingseason
4. In fact, no time is your own time any more.
Tried to go to bed hours ago and ended up getting called up by the sister to help with a minor wedding disaster #bridesmaidproblems
5. Especially when you have SO much to do.
Lost feeling in my thumbs making paper flowers... #bridesmaidproblems
I'll be glad when I never have to come back here. #BridesmaidProblems (@ David's Bridal) http://t.co/Kz3KqCTskV
Getting introduced to the "bowdabra" #bridesmaidproblems
6. Which can make you somewhat cranky.
I will not throw and/or attend more showers than years your marriage will last. #bridesmaidproblems
7. Then there's the never-ending problem with shoes.
I hate peep toe heels and don't understand why people are so obsessed with them #bridesmaidproblems
Online shopping for navy heels in August is like trying to find an invisible needle in an endless haystack. #bridesmaidproblems
I feel like a hooker walking around my house trying to break my heals in for the wedding. #bridesmaidproblems
Practicing kneeling and standing back up in these shoes. Princess Grace I am not. #bridesmaidproblems #catholicweddingproblems
8. Which remains an issue right up to the big day.
I had to walk on this in heels while carrying a wedding dress #bridesmaidproblems
Uh-oh we have toe cleavage! So scandalous! #BridesmaidProblems
9. There's also the relentless worrying about what you're going to look like.
Sittin' out, with my tan-lines,/ Can't go wrong, cos I'm in right #bridesmaidproblems
I think the last time I put that my effort into shaving was prom. I don't even know why, my dress is to the floor .... #bridesmaidproblems
10. And the battle between wanting to look good yet keep the bride happy.
That moment you realize your opinion doesn't matter and dressing for your body type goes out window #bridesmaidproblems
#BridesmaidProblems She makes me laugh.
"Do I look hot enough so I subtly steal the thunder, but not so hot that I overtly steal the thunder?" #bridesmaidproblems
11. Sometimes things can get a little frustrating.
Bridezilla not answering her phone makes it difficult to know whether or not I'm hailing a cab or being picked up #bridesmaidproblems
There are FAR too many hairstyles on pinterest to pick one. #bridesmaidproblems
Fml 4am start tmrw. #weddingday #bridesmaidproblems
12. Especially where bobby pins are concerned.
It seriously is going to be months before I get all these bobby pins out of my head #bridesmaidproblems
Lost track of how many bobby pins I have in my hair! #bridesmaidproblems
I just found another bobby pin in my hair. Over 24 hours after wedding and post hair washing #bridesmaidproblems
I just got pat down at O'Hare security because all the bobby pins in my hair set off the alarm. (... #bridesmaidproblems?)
Um I totally cannot manage bobby pins without messing up manicured nails. #bridesmaidproblems
It will take days, if not weeks, to get all of the hairspray from the past two days out of my hair. #bridesmaidproblems
13. And even "fun" is not fun any more because you ABSOLUTELY MUST HAVE A GOOD TIME. And absolutely MUST GET DRUNK.
"The only time you're allowed to leave the dance floor is if you need a drink or you have the go to the bathroom" #bridesmaidproblems
When I agreed to working the shot table I don't realize everyone would force you to take a shot with them #bridesmaidproblems #drunkproblems
"I'm allergic to alcohol, my throat swells up ...but I brought my inhaler just in case I'm forced to drink" #bridesmaidproblems
Thank God weddings include free alcohol cause I need to get shmashed to be comfortable in one of those fufu dresses #bridesmaidproblems
"Look Heather we are having fun right now." As a bridesmaid is laying in the bus with a bloody nose. #bridesmaidproblems
14. And all the drinking and organising gets a little bit much.
Drunk last night, up early this morning. #bridesmaidproblems @gabi_menefield @trasey_dyann
Maybe getting hammered at the rehearsal wasn't the smartest idea #bridesmaidproblems
15. Sometimes you feel like you're a glorified secretary.
Hello, @kjohnson67 's secretary speaking, she is currently at a fitting, can I take a message? #bridesmaidproblems
Spending 30 minutes on the phone with David's Bridal & planning a Bridal Shower with only one other Bridesmaid's help. #bridesmaidproblems
Oh hey day before the wedding and I still haven't written my speech #bridesmaidproblems
16. And sometimes people are just speaking a completely different language.
So @whitneymathews just sent me a text in a foreign language. Girl, I don't speak floral. #bridesmaidproblems
Get this. there are differences between the colors champagne, latte, and unshiny gold. I don't know what they are. #bridesmaidproblems
When on earth am I going to use a bridesmaid hoodie or apron again? #BridesmaidProblems
17. But your main gripe is the constant dieting for *that* dress.
Steamed brusselsprouts for dinner after 2 workouts & an infrared sauna sesh...so excited to get into that dress #sarcasm #bridesmaidproblems
Hello starvation. T-11 weeks until wedding day. #bridesmaidproblems #junewedding #bridesmaid #specialk
The only solid food I get until July 21 aka @BridgerClader & @alyssacristine's wedding #crashdiet #bridesmaidproblems
