You'll get an honest look at the modern bridal party experience, where we celebrate the differences in our bodies and the dresses that, let's face it, we may only wear once.

What's up?
It's your girl, yola, and guesswhat Bonus episodes have
entered the chat.
That's right.
Sometimes, as you know, we getto talking and our conversations
run a little too long for aregular episode, so now you can
get caught up on some of thestuff you missed when we had to
(00:22):
do some editing.
This week you're going to hearabout my adventures as a
bridesmaid Shout out to theBrowns.
So stay tuned, my friend gotmarried in October.
I've known her since I was fouryears old.
She is a great person and I'mthrilled for her, and they have
been together for a bit ohcongratulations, friend.
(00:45):
Yes, but I did not expect and.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
I shouldn't say that.
Speaker 1 (00:53):
I say that I was honored enough, like she valued
our relationship enough, toinvite me to be a bridesmaid.
I value our relationship enoughto accept that invitation.
So I was a bridesmaid at 44.
And I did not.
I've been a bridesmaid twicebefore, but in my 20s I was
(01:16):
tired and I didn't even do muchand I was like I just did not
realize that bridesmaid.
It seems different.
Have you been?
Speaker 2 (01:29):
a bridesmaid I have.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
Have you been a bridesmaid recently?
Speaker 2 (01:35):
The last bridesmaid.
The last wedding I was in wasin my brother's wedding, which
was five years ago, so I wouldsay that was.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
That's relatively recent.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
Like I, what are you saying?
You feel like it's a lot to bea bridesmaid.
Speaker 1 (01:51):
I feel like bridesmaid is a young girl I
don't know about, just I felt.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
Why do you feel that way?
What do you what?
What was your experience?
Why do you say it's a younggirl's game?
Speaker 1 (02:06):
And let's be clear you are still young, ok yes, I
am still young relatively, butlet's be honest, there are
certain things that you do inyour 20s.
True, I'm 24, like my knee hurtand I'm just sitting here,
right, true, but I did.
I like I think maybe I'm justwasn't well burst because I have
(02:29):
only, like it was, it's been 20years and I think maybe that's
more what it was.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
If I say that loud for the first time like I.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
Just I think I almost didn't even know what to expect
.
I said I did very littlebecause I, when I was right,
maybe right, maybe last time-you sound like me.
Speaker 2 (02:50):
You know, that's what she says.
Brought me.
Speaker 1 (02:54):
But I am trying to think.
I think the last time last timewas not to the first time with
our friend Casey, who's also inthe group chat, and I love my
drill.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
Oh, I had brunch with , not too long ago, casey and I
did, casey and I did.
Yeah, I thought about you andto she's a friend of the group
chat?
Speaker 1 (03:14):
Yes, she is, we love.
She also went to high schoolwith us, yes, so and speaking of
Jen, she was also a freshman.
And Right, what Um, but we gotour dresses.
Our dresses were made for us bya wonderful one See, I like
(03:34):
that I like it Also ended upmaking my wedding gown.
So because I had such a goodexperience and so I so Casey
dress that went to that dressBrashe's dress was my favorite,
just because it got, it was madefor me.
Hey look to your body.
(03:55):
Yes, and I was 22.
So I was cute Um thisparticular like I was.
This dress.
I don't feel like it flatteredme very much.
I didn't have a lot of sayingin it.
Speaker 2 (04:13):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (04:14):
So Brian had, she had a vision I respected that Like
I said I love her.
I've noticed that I was fouryears old and I just I don't
know, I just it's hard to putinto words.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
I'm also.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
I don't want my friends to listen to this to be
offended, because I reallyenjoyed that experience and the
celebration of her.
I just, I just don't think that.
Maybe I'm not cut out to be abride.
That's made, maybe that's whatit is, maybe it's me, maybe.
I'm literally having thisthought in real time.
Speaker 2 (04:50):
Maybe it is, I don't know.
You know, I've always been.
I always said if I were to havea decent size wedding when I
say decent because now I'm at apoint in my life if I were to
get married, we can literallyjust go to the JP and call it a
day.
But if I were to have a wedding, formal wedding I would just
say you know I'm not going topay.
Pick out a couple of dresses,maybe four.
(05:10):
Have the bridesmaids choose forme, because I feel like they
have to pay their money for itand you should not have to pay
for something that you don'tlike and, let's face it, most of
the time you never wear itagain, right?
Speaker 1 (05:21):
She did do that.
Okay, she's hit, not like itDid do that.
It's just that none of theoptions were flattering, but
let's take this.
I do not think they wereflattering on me and but I guess
you know I I love her.
I sucked it up.
I wore the dress.
It worked well enough.
(05:41):
You know, that's it.
I'm not going to wear it again.
I have nothing, you know.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
Yeah, most people don't I mean who really wears
their bridesmaids dress anymoreafter the day of the wedding?
You don't.
You put in the back of yourcloset and it collects dust.
But I do agree with you aboutthat because I do feel like the
people that you have in yourwedding.
You have to think about bodytypes and what may look good on
(06:04):
them.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
I just did not like me and I wouldn't like.
I want to practice but likepeople to fully understand, I am
talking only about myself whenI say I did not like this.
I did not think it was suitedfor me.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
Well, you know what Kind of goes back to what we
talked about last week insecurities, no one really knows
unless you know that person andit has been shared with you.
For the most part, you don'tknow what that person's
insecurity is.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
So maybe it was one of those things that could have
been, one of those things that,oh you know, I just sent you
because I see where you'retrying to go and I'm sending you
a text with the picture fromthe wedding so that you know
that's not the case this time.
It just doesn't look good.
Speaker 2 (06:45):
I actually like the dress.
Well, but what I'm saying iswhat you see and what other
people see are two totallydifferent things.
You may not be comfortable init, but you know, no matter how
many times a person may say, ohmy God, you look good, good.
And if you don't feel good init and feel comfortable in it,
no amount of compliments isgoing to make you feel different
(07:07):
.
I think it looks good, but Iget what you're saying.
You just didn't feel like itfit your body type, but I like
it.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
I did not feel comfortable.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
Mm-hmm.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
I made jokes that if I didn't already have a man I
definitely wouldn't go.
Catch nobody in that.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
I'm yo, Almost made me choke.
Speaker 1 (07:30):
No.
Speaker 2 (07:31):
Crazy, because that is.
That is what is the word Iwanna use.
That is so it's the word Iwanna use.
Dramatic, that is so dramatic.
I do not feel that way.
I think the dress is.
I think you look good in thedress Well you are my friend and
I love you.
Speaker 1 (07:50):
Thank you, but yeah, it's even a bit of a but it was
just.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
It was an experience.
Speaker 1 (07:55):
It was very, I think, also like I.
I don't know, I just feel likeI was able to contribute the way
I thought bridesmaids should.
And don't get me wrong, shedidn't ask.
She didn't ask a lot of us atall.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
Just to support and celebrate her.
Speaker 2 (08:14):
She didn't ask for the bridesmaids to do anything.
No, she didn't have any crazyquestions.
Speaker 1 (08:19):
She was probably the most low key, like she had some
things that she wanted because,well, it was her wedding and she
was praying for it and that'swhat she wanted, right, but I
don't think she was.
She was not a bridesmaid aboutany stretch.
She was very low key.
As brides, though, okay, therewas no like people got to wear
their hair the way they wantedto, they wore the shoes they
wanted to.
(08:40):
I mean, I think her one requestabout a parent was like no loud
off cold, like not a symptomoff cold, but like nail polish
when you can.
You know, just for theaesthetic.
That aesthetic, but nothing,which is very reasonable.
Speaker 2 (08:54):
Got you.
Speaker 1 (08:55):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
I like it.
Speaker 1 (08:57):
Like she didn't force us to get, like I said, I hear
it done in a certain way or by acertain person.
She actually covered the makeupartist for us, so that was a
gift.
That was a gift, yeah, she did.
She gifted us very many things,so she gifted us the jewelry
she gifted us the makeup shegifted us.
I have.
(09:17):
You know I love anything withmy name on it, so I have a set
of matching stimulus champagneflutes with my name on it.
I had a robe with my name on it.
Speaker 2 (09:29):
Ooh, oh, she gave us slippers I have.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
I came away with a lot of stuff from her wedding.
I was like I feel very muchthanked and appreciated having
this experience.
Oh my gosh, her mother made themost beautiful bouquets, oh so
she made the bouquet for thewedding.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
Her mom did Her mom Very nice.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
The beautiful, her mother's very talented and she
worked with a really good themajor look events, which is some
folks that I know and thecombination of those two talents
together, like it wasabsolutely gorgeous.
Okay, okay, I like it.
The atmosphere is so.
(10:13):
It was a beautiful wedding,just a beautiful bride, and I
liked the most was they werejust happy, Like they were happy
to get married.
Speaker 2 (10:24):
Yeah, cause that's what it's all about.
Speaker 1 (10:26):
Yeah, the wedding and they just had a good time and
people celebrated them and had agood time.
It was, and I know- I say Ifelt like I just felt.
I think, like I said, the issueabout being a bride made and
being tired is me just based onall the stuff that's going on in
(10:47):
life.
Speaker 2 (10:47):
So that's not about the bride, by any stretch,
please don't make fun of her.
No, no, no, no yeah.
Speaker 1 (10:51):
Because I felt like she and her husband did a
fantastic job on like this is acelebration of us and our love
and our union, and that's whatthe focus is gonna be.
So, whatever it was you thinkyou about to be doing hey, about
that it is not happening.
So I like it was a good time.
It felt like, you know, wetalked about weddings and
(11:11):
celebrations and it felt likethat.
Speaker 2 (11:15):
I like that and I like the fact that she gifted
you the makeup Cause, let metell you, makeup to get your
makeup done is it's, you know,for several girls that could be
kind of pricey.
That was a very nice gift.
That was a.
Yes, it's a very nice gift,very, very nice gift.
Speaker 1 (11:31):
And I rarely painted, so I I don't wear makeup.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
But the makeup was good in the picture.
I'm looking at it.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
It was a beautiful experience to just kind of sit
back and let it be done.
Well, thank you.
Yeah, I wish I remember theother ladies name.
I'll have to try and put in theshow notes.
Well, I didn't have one issuewith the makeup artist who did
my makeup.
She doesn't like the whiz.
He's on down.
He's on down the road.
Speaker 2 (12:00):
What Girl do you know what's up?
You know what's about to be onBroadway, right?
Speaker 1 (12:05):
Again yeah.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
Again and I'm going yes.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
So I would go, you just like the whiz Didn't make
the whiz, and then I made thewhiz.
But no, it was funny becauseshe and the other makeup artist,
all right, yeah, I got friendsand colleagues, and so when she
said that I guess her friend andcolleague did not know this, we
were all like what Wait?
Speaker 2 (12:29):
she didn't like it or she's never seen it?
Speaker 1 (12:31):
She's seen it and it's not openly bond of it.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
Would she prefers the Wizard of Oz?
Speaker 1 (12:37):
I can't even remember .
I was so shocked at that point.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
I like both of them, but I love the whiz.
I do like both.
I love it.
Speaker 1 (12:44):
The whiz is gifted itself.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
Actually I have pinned that because I do want to
talk about that for anotherchat and I want to talk about on
the heels of wedding.
I think we should talk aboutwedding etiquette.
I think that should be a topic.
Oh, yes, Wedding etiquette.
So I have put that down becauseI think that's a big topic and
I have very strong views aboutwedding etiquette.
(13:10):
So there will be something torevisit, don't you?
Speaker 1 (13:16):
I do, I do and I will say, my friend did have some
guidelines about guestsetiquette too, so that'd be
great.
That also gives us some giftsonto the show, some folks we can
talk with.
Yeah, but I know we got to wrapup, so let's talk about this
black owned business we'rehighlighting this time around,

I've known her since I was fouryears old.
She is a great person and I'mthrilled for her, and they have
been together for a bit ohcongratulations, friend.
(00:45):
Yes, but I did not expect and.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
I shouldn't say that.
Speaker 1 (00:53):
I say that I was honored enough, like she valued
our relationship enough, toinvite me to be a bridesmaid.
I value our relationship enoughto accept that invitation.
So I was a bridesmaid at 44.
And I did not.
I've been a bridesmaid twicebefore, but in my 20s I was
(01:16):
tired and I didn't even do muchand I was like I just did not
realize that bridesmaid.
It seems different.
Have you been?

Have you been a bridesmaid recently?
Speaker 2 (01:35):
The last bridesmaid.
The last wedding I was in wasin my brother's wedding, which
was five years ago, so I wouldsay that was.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
That's relatively recent.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
Like I, what are you saying?
You feel like it's a lot to bea bridesmaid.
Speaker 1 (01:51):
I feel like bridesmaid is a young girl I
don't know about, just I felt.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
Why do you feel that way?
What do you what?
What was your experience?
Why do you say it's a younggirl's game?
Speaker 1 (02:06):
And let's be clear you are still young, ok yes, I
am still young relatively, butlet's be honest, there are
certain things that you do inyour 20s.
True, I'm 24, like my knee hurtand I'm just sitting here,
right, true, but I did.
I like I think maybe I'm justwasn't well burst because I have
(02:29):
only, like it was, it's been 20years and I think maybe that's
more what it was.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
If I say that loud for the first time like I.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
Just I think I almost didn't even know what to expect
