I was thrilled when my best friend asked me to be her maid of honor.
We had been friends for a decade and we always had a great time. When she started dating, I was a bit jealous, but I knew he was a good guy. I thought I knew Christy really well, but she put in a tailspin when she became engaged. We used to laugh at the bridezillas on television, but suddenly I was living it. She became very demanding and she thought she was the queen. She wanted everything that every bride asked for and more. She also wanted me to pay for everything since I was the maid of honor. I could have taken a trip around the world and it may have been cheaper. About four months before the wedding, I was ready to throw in the towel and give up on the friendship. She told me that she wanted to take all of the bridal party to a fitness center for some physical fitness training. I was waiting for her to tell me how much it was going to cost, but she didn’t say anything. I found my best friend again during those workouts. We took our bridal dresses with us. We put them on and there was someone there to show us what we needed to work on the most. From there, the personal trainer started a workout and nutrition program for us. We all worked in one big group, but some of us got some one on one training with the personal trainer. By the time the wedding came around, we needed a dressmaker to resize all of our dresses.
