That's the way forward.
However, i just wonder, seems like everyone has that idea but where will the ugly ones find a guy if they are not on a bridal train?  

Nightclubs
Pubs
Viewing Centres
Shopping Mall
House-Parties
Wedding Receptions
etc. . . . . .

Travelista:
Ewww! Ugly bridesmaids accompany an ugly bride! To be fair, Naija girls aren't the only ones that do that; I have friends across several ethnic lines that have done the same thing, for the very same reason. Insecure chicks slay me and for the jealousy (because that's what it is) to extend to your so-called friends? No. Ma'am. The husband-to-be should be watching this like a hawk because if it was me, I'd think real hard about marrying such a insecure, petty person.

For me, I'll choose my prettiest friends to be in my bridal train; I'd hate to look through my photo album later and see myself shining while Lazy-Eyed Betty and Unibrow Ursula funk up the picture's flavor.

My thoughts exactly. . . .

In this age of wedding websites and Megabyte digital pictures, i cannot afford an ugly bridal train.
Posterity won't forgive me.

zebra543:
^^ problem is its a symbol to the start of a relationship with an insecure and generally selfish woman!! it is her day but can u begin to imagine what other things she will do? like refusing to go to events cos the hostess is hotter than her, forcing her children to compete in beauty contests and talent shows nagging her husband for not dressin as good as the other husbands in church! She will be spending money and time trying to 'outdress outlook' every woman she comes accross! The woman needs to do alot of work on herself, i dont see her husband bein particularly happy with her in years to come!

Excellent post!
The bride needs to see her SHRINK.
Her self confidence is ULTRA-LOW.

Gays are not allowed in any Naija church o. . . .
Suitable man ke? She has to be a woman(sexy n hot).

zebra543:
^^ it is, but people will still remember who is getting married. i will be proud to have gawjus gals at my wedding! So they all get hooked up and i have more weddings to attend!

And where would this gorgeous damsel be sitting in the church for everyone to see her?

The wedding is designed/planned for the couple only.
It's their day. I doubt any other woman can take all the attention away from the bride.

Which kind bride you be? Faggotz in Church?
I think i will bring a gun along as well.

No Lafayette, abeg.

Pennywise:
@OP
Selfish and irrational deduction. A pretty babe doesnt need to be in the bridal train to get attention. A wedding can be taking place at the altar while the principal object of all the gentlemen's attention is at the back of the church. Her calculation will only be meaningful if she tells Ms pretty - "you are too fine pls dont come to my wedding".

Is it really possible for another chic to take the attention away from a bride? Seriously?
I don't think so. . . . . .

Eastbay:
@A-40,
It's not his fault that Real decided to buy players he largely didn't need for him either.
Kaka did nawt,Benzema was a misnomer last season,ahead of a host of players.
Pellegrini wasn't asked who in particular he wanted.He was basically going to go for modest to unknowns in terms of signings if his track record at Villareal is anything to go by,which isn't Real's style.
When a coach leads you to your record points haul in La Liga with a team that basically isn't his,think of what he might have done f he was given time to build his squad,but then he might be faulted for even accepting the Real job

Pellegrini even did beyond my expectations.
96 points and 102 goals scored. . . . . .He would win every other league in the world with that final standing.
I have no doubt in ma mind he could win it next season if he had stayed. . . . .

queeneve:
Why do people always assume everyone want to look like Beyonce, have you seen other beautiful women beside BEYONCE?

Removing her pretty friends to look like BEYONCE is obsessive, HOWEVER, IF THAT HOW SHE FEEL SHE WILL LOOK MORE BEAUTIFUL THEN LET HER BE, IT HER DAY, SHE CAN PICK ALL UGLY WOMEN IF SHE WANT, IT NOT YOUR WEDDING POSTER!

AND GET OVER YOUR OBSESSION WITH BEYONCE, MARIAH CAREY DID A SONG ABOUT THAT CHECK IT OUT!

Are you jealous cos i am obsessed with Beyonce? Na wa o!!
Next time, i won't use Beyonce as ma example. . . . .I will use queeneve.

iice:
[color=#9900ff]Are bridesmaids not friends?
A friend ought to know that you'll dim yourself because it's your friend's day.
A bride ought to know it's her day and she's getting to marry the one for her. Whatever the others look like, she should know she's the one in the eyes of the one who matters.


Women sef and their ish.[/color]

U make loads of sense.
I am glad i won't be seeing Azeezats/Kemistry in your bridal train on OUR wedding day.
This ish about silent codes is hogwash.

^^^

So you are saying it's not selfishness nor insecurity?
What is it then?

funkybaby:
@post

to each their own.

am not really a big fan of a bridal train with so many 'participants'. left for me, it will just be my husband-to-be and i at the altar.

bridesmaid will prolly be my sister while i will handpick few of my young cousins to wear gown and coffetti or whatever it is called. my friends will have to make do with swiss voile aso-ebi.

if the bride sticks to this, then she has nothing to worry about anyone trying to outshine her  

why should she be worried about such in the first place sef. thats just plain insecurity

Funkybaby, don't be stingy with your man o.

[quote author=~Sissy~ link=topic=452813.msg6105736#msg6105736 date=1275004058]you know women na.  some bridesmaid can be tempting though and do intentionally try to out due the bride. so i dont blame the bride

as a member and a believer of the core sisterhood principles, had it be me i wouldnt make them look ugly per se, but one thing is for sure aint nobody going to be looking more fly than me. its my day and i make the rules. and i own all the attention[/quote]U are a meanie!

[quote author=~Sissy~ link=topic=452813.msg6105648#msg6105648 date=1275002544]its the gene in us. all eyes on that day should be on the bride not on a the dead gorgeous bridesmaid that may distracts the attention of men including the groom[/quote]So in a nutshell, you will do the same as well?

Why are there no rules with men? Women and their wahala

Nail collides with the Hammer.

stillwater:
Most beautiful women won't bother. These brides should channel their energies to their make-up artistes instead, since they need everyone girl in the room to look down trodden, they would certainly need 100 layers of foundation to outshine everyone in the room.

I wonder o. . . . .

Missy B:
We Love to be the centre of attention!  
Having anatha Lady [even mama] get all the compliment and attention,
Plus causing heads to turn on ma day isn't smile-inducing.
Like they say - ''Prevention is cheaper . . . ''

Missy B, it is your day - 10000 Beyonces cannot take away your compliments and attention.
You are the one in white. . . . .You are the one the whole guests came to see.
Why deprive your maids? It's grossly unfair.

[quote author=~Sissy~ link=topic=452813.msg6105592#msg6105592 date=1275001734]one secret rule wedding among sisterhood, no lady should be allowed to look more gorgeous than the bride on her day. shes the only one allowed all the attention and no its no insecurity or selfishness.[/quote]Who made this rule? Queen Jezebel herself or who?
I am supposed to be the best man of this wedding ceremony but i am beginning to consider walking out of the whole schiznit.
Sauron is not standing next to Kemistry, abeg.

stillwater:
Lol, a girl's gotta do what she's gotta do.
On a serious note, it's both insecurity and selfishness.
One of my mom's worker's was a bride's maid and the bride asked all her bride's maids to do one ridiculous hairstyle like that. But these girls did another hairstyle. On the wedding day both bride and bride maids did the same hairstyle. The bride was so furious. My mom's worker was like ''you done find husband, I never find''.

Jesus. . . . . . .This story takes the cake.
10 Gbosas for the bride's maids abeg. . . . . .They followed their heart

hescool:
dude u are so right. my sisters friend who recently got married, figured she could not get rid of my sister and her friends on her bridal train, so instead she made them look like chukys bride in dresses most housegirls wouldnt wear to sleep   while she looked stunning  

But why do women take this route?

stillwater:
What's with the Naija babes this and that comments?
For that, I'll use wowor babes for my own, if you don't like it go and hug a mopol officer.

I won't be surprised.
12 Kemistrys in your bridal train so you can look like a Beyonce. Classic!!!!

denzel2009:
Sorry where's Debosky? Hope he is okay?

He's in South Africa. . . . .
Debosky is NL's correspondent in South Africa for the world cup.

stillwater:
It's her day, isn't it?

No question. . . . .It's her day!!!
But why would a bride sacrifice her own bridal train so she can look good.
She's already hitched. . . . .Why not give the single ladies their own opportunity to showcase their beauty?

This particular bride is so selfish to the point of choosing a useless dress code for her bridal train.
WTF is that about?
I tire for una Naija babes o.

I am currently helping a colleague plan his wedding.
To my biggest surprise, his bride-to-be deliberately left out her attractive/cute friends in her bridal train.
When asked why she left them out - She said she doesn't want to be outshone on her own WEDDING DAY.

Ma question is. . . . . .Is this a general trend in Naija brides or a one-off?
Should this act of placing one's own needs above the needs or desires of others be allowed?
Naija sisters, abeg. . . . . .I need answers.

Missy B:
You can't be in the bedroom with us, Sir.
I doubt Sauron digs a thr-eesome. 

Thre[i]e[/i]some ke? I don't share skirts o.

If he gets carried away, he will stop two slugs with his fat belly.

Be slow with the kisses, Sauron . . . It's me doing the feeding, remember?

  Place that on Your head . . . .
  Place this on Your chest . . . .

Hold on!! Ask Everyone here to leave us alone.

I am the luckiest man ALIVE. . . . .I have got nothing else to say.
Thank you

I'm just concerned as a good samaritan to a fellow mate. There are some guys that  have eaten hairy snails and then given their bank cards and PINs out to some madams. We can't affort to lose you oh.
