Bride

<p>When a bride&#39;s dream photographer canceled on her a month before her big day, she enlisted her friend to help her find a replacement photographer. Seems easy enough, right? Except the bride wants the photographer to replicate the &quot;style&quot; of the photographer who bailed on her, to give her a discount, to track down the security deposit from the first photographer, and to locate some obscure mountain setting for the photos because the bride is adamant about having her &quot;dream&quot; &quot;winter wonderland&quot; wedding. Oh, and the friend that is supposed to help the bride find this dream photographer? That friend was never even invited to the wedding!</p><p>One disgruntled pal took to <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/ChoosingBeggars/comments/eck6yn/bride_wants_my_photographer_friend_to_learn/">Reddit</a> to vent over her recent interaction with said bridezilla.</p><h2>The story goes that the bride&#39;s dream photographer (who we&#39;ll call Ashley) bails on her before the wedding, so she reaches out to a mutual pal of a new photographer and well, things don&#39;t exactly start off on the right foot.</h2><figure class="image"><div class="image-container"><img alt="" data-attribution="Reddit" data-attribution-url="https://www.reddit.com/r/ChoosingBeggars/comments/eck6yn/bride_wants_my_photographer_friend_to_learn/" height="715" src="//cdn.someecards.com/posts/screen-shot-2019-12-27-at-11327-pm-0IfwL0.png" width="612" /></div> <figcaption></figcaption> <div class="image-attribution"><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/ChoosingBeggars/comments/eck6yn/bride_wants_my_photographer_friend_to_learn/">Reddit</a></div></figure><div className="ad-splitter"></div><p>&quot;It&#39;s sweet that you think someone who is planning a wedding would have time for a phone call!&quot; Uhhh kay???</p><h2>After the friend calls the bride &quot;condescending&quot; and gives the bride the photographer&#39;s email, the bride seemingly refuses to contact the photographer herself and hits the friend with this:</h2><p> </p><figure class="image"><div class="image-container"><img alt="" data-attribution="Reddit" data-attribution-url="https://www.reddit.com/r/ChoosingBeggars/comments/eck6yn/bride_wants_my_photographer_friend_to_learn/" height="295" src="//cdn.someecards.com/posts/screen-shot-2019-12-27-at-11505-pm-dndCoT.png" width="457" /></div> <figcaption></figcaption> <div class="image-attribution"><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/ChoosingBeggars/comments/eck6yn/bride_wants_my_photographer_friend_to_learn/">Reddit</a></div></figure><div className="ad-splitter"></div><p>&quot;One day you might get engaged...&quot; Wow.

Bride demands that wedding photographer copy another photographer's style, at a discount.
