Hillarious

I am very much a detailed planner and definitely look for everything to be done up to my high standards (inherited these from ALL the women in my family). Working in the bridal industry and being a designer leads me to look very closely at details and how everything is perfectly planned out...WELL: i will NEVER be like this whenever I am a bride, but this is planning taken way too far...but it's hillarious and it's true! It's a Bridesmaid Contract that was sent out from the bride...


*Bridesmaid’s Contract*
Hello my beautiful bridesmaids! Let me just say again how happy I am that you are going to be a part of my special day! Below are just a few guidelines for the wedding that I’d like you to review, please initial by each point, sign at the end and send back to me. Just want to make sure they’re aren’t any surprises! The planning bride is a happy bride!
Thanks a bunch! Love ya!

______ My hair will remain at the length it is now or longer.

______ I will not change my hair color without first consulting Katie and providing a sample photo or hair swatch for consideration.

______ I will use Sally Hansen’s “Maximum Growth-Daily Nail Growth program” every day for the 4 months before the wedding day.

______ I will not gain more than 4lbs from the weight I was when I was asked to be a bridesmaid.

______ I swear to attend all showers, (lingerie, bridal & bachelorette) to arrive in a timely manner and do everything in my power to support and “be there” for the bride.

______ I will purchase the David’s Bridal style # 81123 dress below in Latte/Champagne within 3 weeks of today.



______ I will NOT knowingly get pregnant without notifying Katie at least 4 months prior to the wedding so a suitable alternate can be found. I will also give my purchased bridesmaid dress to said alternate.

I do hereby swear that I will adhere to all of the above & other understood bridesmaid duties for the wedding on September 21, 2007

WOW! Do they get to send their own contract in response?
1. The bride will not scream at me at any point during the wedding to fix things that are out of my own power.
2. I am in no way held responsible to dance with aunt jane's pre-pubescent son so all can stand and express how cute they think it is.
3. My toast may or may not reveal a secret that you may not be prepared to tell your family about. At the time of my speach, I will not be held accountable for the ammount of alcohol I have consumed and due to this, all precautions to have speaches done at an early hour will be taken into consideration.
HAHAHA!

It's a joke, one of the bridesmaids showed it to her husband and he posted on the web before they found dout it was a joke. The bride and her bridesmaids were on ABC news to explain it all this morning.
