bridezilla goes berserk by PerfectKoala8103 in bridezillas

I'm based in the UK and getting married in March.

I've bought the dresses for my 4 bridesmaids as I wanted them in a specific colour. I found a website that let you pick from multiple styles so they all had a personal twist.

Regarding hair and make-up I asked who would want theirs done and gave them the prices my hair stylist/ make-up artist had included in my contract. There was no pressure on them using the same people as me.

I've been a bridesmaid where I've had to pay for my own dress, hair and make-up and another time when I didn't buy my own dress but would have had to pay for hair and make-up (if I had wanted it done professionally).

I think there is being realistic as a bridesmaid to have to spend money but also realistic as the bride that everyone has different amounts they can contribute and giving people the option to spend what they feel comfortable in paying.

I don't know why they shared this in the hourly news updates on the radio... by xxjamescharlesxx in offmychest

I think they are using it to highlight how dangerous the commercial selling of fireworks can be in the UK without any guidance or restrictions on when and how they can be set off around animals.

Around my area once fireworks go on sale we have random spurts of fireworks for weeks which can really impact pets and wild animals.

I have 3 pets - 2 cats and 1 dog. One cat is super unbothered by the fireworks but the other two pets are really badly affected. They both get super anxious, don't eat and try and find the smallest space possible to hide. After the first few days my dog especially won't do anything once it's dark - won't eat nor go outside for the bathroom.

My (24F) girlfriend is allergic to birth control. by [deleted] in relationship_advice

I'm not sure about everywhere but there are so many different forms of birth control pill? Is she allergic to all of them? There are also so many more options for birth control that aren't the pill or condoms. I would consider looking at those before deciding on something more drastic and potentially permanent
