I was shamed for being part of the groomsmen, it’s not my fault I’m pretty, I’m just ‘one of the boys’
A WOMAN has been called a ‘pick me girl’ for dismissing the bridal party and being one of the groomsmen.
Chloe Bouda took to social media to share some clips of the happy wedding day where she posed with her fellow groomsmen.
“POV: You were always one of the boys so now you’re on the groom’s side,” she wrote.
“Bridal party who?” Chloe captioned the post.
The pretty blonde wore a gorgeous beige silk dress to match the groomsmen’s suits.
She had her long locks styled into tousled waves and wore white wedges with a delicate white floral bouquet to finish the look.
But it seemed people were unimpressed with her remarks as they called her a ‘pick me’ and claimed she was disrespectful to the bride.
The ‘pick me’ girl insult describes a woman who asserts that she is unlike (and sometimes better than) most other women, in order to gain attention, approval, or validation from men.
It appeared that the groomsmen party had a wonderful time while celebrating their friends – and there was no mention that the bride had an issue with Chloe joining the boys.
But with so many strict wedding rules to adhere to – many claimed it was wrong of her to join the boys.
Although there’s no rules suggesting only the gender of the bride can be in the bridal party and vise versa – it’s not a common way to split the wedding parties.
Since posting the video on her TikTok account @chloe.bouda it has gone viral with over 2 million views and 340k likes.
Plenty of women took to the comments of the post and the majority seemed unimpressed with the caption of the post.
One person wrote: “Pick me final boss.”
Another commented: “It’s the “bridal party who” for me.”
“I’d say this will be me and my bros, but no. I’d never cross that kind of boundary because I would respect the bride,” penned a third.
Meanwhile a fourth said: “
Maybe if she didn’t say bridal party who? Like that’s his wife’s bridal party lol.”
A Bride’s Ultimate Guide to Wedding Gifts
Fabulous's Digital Editor, Lydia Major, has shared her thoughts as a former bride on what to buy - and what not to buy - a couple for their big day.
I’m a traditionalist so I love to go to a wedding with a list. A list where the price points vary, the prezzies are a mix and there’s something for everyone. The joy of a list is we know the bride and groom want these things and we know no one else will buy the same – for me, that’s a win-win. I got married 8 years ago and still remember who bought us a certain photo frame or the posh-plate that only comes out at parties.
But, that being said, if someone doesn’t have a list I still would NEVER turn up empty handed. That’s plain rude. Even if the wedding cost an arm and a leg to get there. A wedding takes months, if not years,of planning, costs a fortune and it’s one of the best days out and the best parties you ever go to, so a small gesture of thanks is essential.
I still remember those who didn’t even bring a card to mine!
Also I don’t think a couple should ever quibble if guests want to give you a wedding present that’s not on your list – older generations, in particular, may feel this is more personal.
To be honest, it’s weddings where the couple want money contributed to their honeymoon or their house fund that makes me feel awkward. Is £50 tight, £150 too lavish? Where’s the benchmark? I spend weeks agonising over it talking to anyone or everyone going and then normally take a stab in the middle.
So for me – always go for a list, stick to the list and let the list be your guide!!
“Uninvited for reals,” claimed a fifth
Someone else added: “You look great! (I’dd never let this occur on my day).”
She hit back in another video, writing: “God forbid a woman has male friends.”
“I was raised with 3 brothers so i’m comfortable around guys. I’m also friends with girls. Idk why it’s revolutionary to be friends with both,” she added.
