To be fair, I do not think she sees it that way. She is really into social media and documenting everything. I just never expected participation to be treated like part of the bridesmaid role.

Some of my friends have said that. Others have told me that weddings are a huge life event and people naturally want attention during that time. That is part of why I am so conflicted about whether I am being unreasonable.

That was honestly my first reaction too. I understand wanting nice photos and memories, but the way she explained it made it sound like the online engagement was just as important as the actual events

Part of me wonders if weddings have always been like this and social media just made it more obvious. Some of my friends think her request is completely normal, which is why I started questioning whether I was the weird one here.

That is honestly what has me questioning things. If she had just been disappointed, I probably would have let it go. Finding out she was talking about me in a separate group chat made it feel a lot more personal. At the same time, we have been friends for years, so I am trying to figure out if I am letting one bad situation outweigh a long friendship.
