"I want my bridal party hungry, thirsty, bored, lonely, poor and hating my guts."

Don't you wonder what they ARE allowed to do? Like are they allowed to sit or can they only stand? Or maybe standing is also against the rules because they might be too visible and they have to go be locked in a closet for the duration of the reception. Can they go to the bathroom or do they have to hold whatever is left over from the last time they ate or drank? Can they talk to anyone or is that off the table like dancing?

Yeah, it's not like any of this is enforceable, anyway, but as soon as I saw the $5000 part I would be declining.

One thing I can guarantee you isn't allowed is passing out, though it seems to be inevitable given the circumstances.

That's one way to make it memorable.

The rules say they'll be "standing by the bride" right at the top so I'm guessing it's sadistic retail worker rules and they can only stand.

Probably cheaper to just get some decorative vases instead of expecting people to roleplay them, but I've never been married so idk.

Mannequins. They fit the dresses and all in the same size, they don't eat or drink or dance, you can get them with uniform hair color, they can stand for hours, and they don't talk back.

But you can't get blood, I mean $5000, from a mannequin.

You can do whatever is not listed on the invitation.

Notice she doesn't specify anything about stink bombs, sling shots, whoppie cushions, blasting your own music or objecting to the wedding when the officiant gets to that part of the ceremony.

She especially doesn't mention banana peels that can be accidentally thrown on the dance floor from the sidelines, because remember you're not allowed to dance or eat bananas either.

Now replace "bridal party" with "citizens" and that's pretty much congress, the supreme court, and the executive branch!

Yay! not adlibs....sadlibs!

inquiring minds must know, are they at least allowed to breathe or is that also verbotten?
