Are your bridesmaids avoiding your calls because they can’t face another wedding meltdown? Does your fiancé pretend to fall asleep when you start talking about colour schemes? Have you forgotten what life was like before you started planning your big day? If you answered yes to any of these questions, it sounds like we might be too late!
The stress of planning your wedding means it’s easier to become a bridezilla than you think. Take our quiz and find out if you’ve entered bridezilla territory…

Mostly As
You’re a… Laidback lady
Nothing seems to faze you, you’re so laidback you’re almost horizontal! Although it’s great you don’t stress easily, don’t be too relaxed – make sure you keep on top of your organisation or you could have a wedding disaster on your hands.
Mostly Bs
You’re a… Balanced bride
Your wedding is important to you, but you don’t let it take over your life. You do get stressed sometimes, but on the whole you’re level-headed. Next time you feel stressed, take five minutes to remind yourself what’s important – the celebration of your love, not the chair covers!
Mostly Cs
You’re a… Bridezilla!
You’ve officially become a bridezilla! You can’t help but get seriously annoyed when people don’t listen to your exact instructions, and get frustrated when you get criticised or questioned. It’s your day, yes, but you need to put things into perspective. Is it worth falling out with your friends and family? And remember, it’s your h2b’s day, too!
