Bride Sparks Outrage with 47-Point Bridesmaid Checklist Including $400 Makeup, No-Photo Policy

Bride Sparks Outrage with 47-Point Bridesmaid Checklist: A bride-to-be’s crazy list of bridesmaid demands has gone viral after one friend bailed on the role after being handed the 47-point list.

A post on r/weddingshaming shows how the bride, Sarah, blindsided her bridal party with a document called “Bridesmaid Expectations & Requirements”.

“I thought it would be like… wear this color, here’s the dress I like, maybe some basic timeline stuff,” the bridesmaid wrote. “Nope. 47 numbered items. FORTY-SEVEN.”

The list included strict and expensive conditions such as mandatory spray tans, $400 non-negotiable hair and makeup appointments, and no posting of any event photos without the bride’s approval.

But one requirement in particular left the bridesmaid stunned; she had to contribute $200 to the bachelorette party on top of planning and paying for it.

The final point on the list reportedly read: “Remember this is my day and your job is to make me shine!”

The bridesmaid texted Sarah and said she couldn’t commit to all that and had to step down. But Sarah’s response was emotional.
