Bride Goes Into Hysterics After Bridesmaid Refuses To Get A Matching Tattoo With Her And Encourages Others To Drop Out Too

Some people will go to any length to design the perfect wedding. They have a concept for every little detail, from decorations to music, venues, and clothing. But the one thing most weddings also have are other people. And they generally can’t be molded and modified as easily as, say, a cake or bouquet.

However, this inconvenient fact isn’t quite enough to stop a certain kind of person. One internet user shared her story with a bride-to-be, her future sister-in-law, who had her own concept for her ideal wedding. Unfortunately for most people involved, this concept envisioned all the bridesmaids getting identical tattoos before the ceremony.

    Well I'm glad that she didn't ask if she was an a$$hole for not wanting to get the matching tattoos. Glad the tattoo place was reasonable with not tattooing anyone with doubts and OP convinced a few people not to go through with it. It sucks enough to get an ex's name removed, but a commemorative tattoo in a highly visible area for someone else's wedding is such a bad idea. I don't have tattoos and if I started, it wouldn't be anything like that. Good luck to her brother and may he find a relationship with a sane person next time. So we have had matching tattoos, "you can't wear your hijab", lots of everyone must look the same. There's a lot of too fat to be a bridesmaid, some you can't be a bridesmaid because you're prettier than the bride, and I once saw a racism one of "can't be the bridesmaid if black, everyone must look the same."

    I have tattoos, and know several artists, I'm surprised the parlor agreed to do a party like this to begin with, and not surprised the owner shut it down. And, just an FYI, it's usually cheaper and ALWAYS easier to get a tattoo covered rather than removed. Small tattoos (I'm assuming size due to placement) can be from $60-$100 (generally), but removal is $1000s with multiple very painful trips that often don't completely remove the tat.

    To any woman reading this: I can give you one piece of advice: If you ever come into a similar situation of being part of such a bridezilla shitshow: Decline! DO NOT get involved at all. After all these stories I am still amazed that these types of people exist. I think the countless movies and ads are still making a huge impact on some people, of how about a wedding is supposed to be the "best day of the life" and how it#s supposed to be "romantic, magical, perfect etc".

    Wanna know the... Maybe not the worst that wouldn't be an accurate wording... But the funniest? It's mostly an US American thing.... One of those that make Europeans go 🤨 "da fudge?"

    Kudos to that tattoo parlor for recognizing and refusing to ink anyone who had any doubts about the tattoo!
