We asked our readers to share their most cringeworthy bridesmaids’ wedding horror stories, and oh boy, did they deliver. From drunken speeches to wardrobe malfunctions, these stories are sure to make you laugh, cringe, and rethink your own bridesmaid choices..
**The Maid of Dishonor**.
One reader shared the story of her bridesmaid who got so drunk at the wedding that she ended up vomiting on the bride’s dress.

**The Fashion Faux Pas**.
Another reader told us about a bridesmaid who showed up to the wedding in a dress that was completely inappropriate. The dress was too short, too tight, and too revealing. The bride was mortified, and the bridesmaid was asked to change her outfit..
**The Speech from Hell**.
One of the most cringeworthy bridesmaid speeches we’ve ever heard was given by a bridesmaid who was so nervous that she started crying.

The guests were shocked, and the bride was left in tears..
**The Bridesmaidzilla**.
In some cases, the bridesmaid is the one who causes the most drama. One reader told us about a bridesmaid who tried to take over the wedding planning process. She was constantly trying to tell the bride what to do, and she even tried to change the guest list. The bride eventually had to fire her as a bridesmaid..

Perhaps the most cringeworthy bridesmaid horror story is the one where the bridesmaid simply doesn’t show up for the wedding.

If you’re a bridesmaid, it’s important to remember that you’re there to support the bride. That means being respectful of her wishes, dressing appropriately, and behaving yourself.
