Queenslander booted from wedding after bridezilla’s bachelorette weekend
  • PublishedJanuary 12, 2024

A young Aussie has shared how she was uninvited from her friend’s wedding after breaking a little-known rule at her bachelorette party.

Amy Dickinson said her former friend was furious when she uploaded an Instagram post of their hen’s weekend trip away before the bride herself had the chance.

Ms Dickinson said she “didn’t understand this was a protocol” and shared the offending photograph — a picture taken from the plane window as the group flew to Hamilton Island, where the hen’s weekend took place.

The bride-to-be’s mum went on to scream at Ms Dickinson over the “disrespectful” act, while her daughter said she ought to know the rules without being told.

The Queenslander said the hen’s party, held over a weekend in 2019, was the first she’d attended — and the photo incident was just the start of what caused their friendship to fall apart.

More than a million people have watched Ms Dickinson recount the story on TikTok, where she said the bride’s behaviour was the “meanest anyone has ever been” to her.

She said guests had been “walking on eggshells” through the glamorous weekend after their friend turned into a “total bridezilla”.

Ms Dickinson had evaded the bride’s fury since snapping the initial pic but, on their final night at dinner, things took a turn for the worse.

‘She lost her s**t’: Bachelorette erupts

The bride had asked people not to be on their phones during dinner but allowed them to take photos.

One of the other women on the trip started snapping photos of Ms Dickinson and her friend, the bride.

“All hell broke loose. The bride was losing her s**t, saying ‘stop taking photos of me, I don’t even want these photos, they are going to be gross’,” Ms Dickinson said.

“The poor girl taking the photos ran to the bathroom crying, so I ran after her.”

It was that act — running after and comforting her friend — that saw Ms Dickinson ostracised from the group.

“I wanted to explain I wasn’t choosing my other friend over her, I just wanted to see if she was all right,” she lamented.

Ms Dickinson and her crying friend became separated from the group and, when they reunited, the conflict took a turn once more.

“All of a sudden this fight was about Instagram,” she said.

This became apparent when the bride’s mother “took over” the discussion and began pointing her finger in Amy’s face, screaming.

Amy acted out the moment, pretending to be the furious mother: “How dare you upload a photo before my daughter at her hen’s party.”

Ms Dickinson said she was kicked out of her hotel room by the bride, blocking access to their belongings and plane tickets.

She said she tried to apologise the next morning as they were preparing to fly home but, it seemed, the fight couldn’t be resolved.

The next day, Ms Dickinson got a call from the bride-to-be.

Her friend said she had thought about what had happened on the weekend and wouldn’t feel comfortable having her at the wedding.

But Ms Dickinson said the call was a relief, explaining the idea of spending another weekend with her friend on her big day would amount to a “nightmare”.

She hung up the phone, blocked the bride, her mother and some of their friends and never spoke to them again.
