What is a Bridezilla?

In this episode of the Dear Bride Podcast, we’re diving into the truth behind the word bridezilla—where it came from, why it sticks, and how it impacts brides during one of the most emotional seasons of their lives. We talk about the pressure to be “perfect,” the unrealistic expectations placed on brides, and how quickly stress can be mislabeled as being dramatic or difficult. This episode is an honest, supportive conversation meant to help brides feel seen, understood, and reminded that having emotions doesn’t make you a bridezilla—it makes you human. #bride #thedearbride #wedding
