A Different Kind of Bridezilla?

What started out as a joke ended with this maid of honor balancing a bouquet in T-rex arms




This bride certainly wasn’t a bridezilla.

When Deanna Adams told her bridal party they could wear whatever they wanted to her wedding, her sister and maid of honor, Christina Meador, surprised guests by showing up to the ceremony in an inflatable Tyrannosaurus-rex costume.


“When you’re maid of honor and told you can wear anything you choose,” Meador shared in an Aug. 10 Facebook post that has since gone viral. “I regret nothing.”


In the photo, Meader is seen wearing the enormous costume and standing next to the bridemaids and Adams as she and her new husband exchange vows.


“I remember being surprised that everyone seemed to be doing their best to avoid noticing the elephant in the room (or should I say dino) but it was hard to see in the costume,” Meader told the Daily Mail about her decision to wear the costume for the ceremony, which started out as a joke between her and her sister.


It began when Adams asked her little sister to be her maid of honor last year.

“About a year ago my big sister texted me asking if I would be her maid of honor,” Meader told the outlet.


“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,” she added.

While contemplating what to buy, she decided she wanted to purchase something she knew she would wear more than once.



Wow. If that’s what the ceremony was like, the reception must have been A-M-A-Z-I-N-G. Elegant ceremonies are great and all, but we love it when families cut loose and have fun… After all, it’s a celebration of love! Sure, maybe the sisterly love stole center stage in this one for a bit. 🤷‍♀️ But what are siblings for if they can’t poke fun at you and your hubby on your wedding day? One thing is for sure: this is the type of wedding we would have loved to be a part of.
