Look, I can imagine a bride completely losing her mind if a bridesmaid has the audacity to show up with shoes that were MINUTELY off-shade with everyone else’s-completely unnoticable to everyone.
So there’s NO WAY I can imagine what a woman in Nebraska thought when her sister, who was serving as her maid of honor, arrived in a full T-Rex costume.
The wedding day nightmare occurred Monday at the nuptials of Deanna Adams, who, in all fairness, told her sister she could choose her own ensemble for the big day. “About a year ago, my big sister texted me asking if I would be her maid of honor,” Christina Meador says. “She, knowing that I’m not a big fan of wearing formal dresses and that I probably wouldn’t have a lot of money to buy something really nice, reassured me by letting me know that I could pick out any outfit that I choose.”
$50 later, there Meador was…Jurassically attired.
Fortunately, her sister was good-natured about the non-traditional outfit, saying, “My sister is awesome!”
Which makes her about the greatest sister and bride in history.
