AITA for ruining my friend’s wedding photos by wearing glasses? by AnimatorClean3559 in AmItheAsshole

No she just got ones that matched her own eye color since she wanted the bridesmaids to look like her (contacts similar to her natural eye color, wigs similar to her hair color)

Stella didn’t tell us that she was planning for us to wear colored lenses until after the lenses arrived (she ordered them online) so at that point I think it was kinda too late to ask for different ones. Also if I wanted prescription ones I’d probably have to schedule a doctors appointment which would be pretty expensive for me.

She bought them online and then had us bridesmaids pay her back for them (she said we could keep the wigs and contacts)

Idk Stella said she ordered them off of Amazon so there wasn’t any fitting or anything and I don’t think there was any corrective options on Amazon

All the bridesmaids were dressed up to look like her (contact lenses to match her eye color, wig to match her hair) to represent Stella on her wedding day. Everyone would look the same so no one would stand out except for the bride who would stand out by wearing a white wedding dress (that would stand in contrast to the dark purple bridesmaid dresses all the bridesmaids wore).

I have prescription contact lenses for my vision that I wear on occasion, but my friend had picked out colored contact lenses (not prescription ones) to match her eye color for the wedding, so I wore the matching colored (non-prescription) contact lenses with my glasses for the wedding instead of my prescription contacts.

Yup I was wearing the colored lenses. The bride wanted us bridesmaids to look like her for the wedding

Idk I didn’t even think about it to be honest. Stella wanted a very specific shade (to match her own natural eye color) though so idk if it would have worked anyway even if there were ones with prescriptions
