Bridezilla's
Bridezilla is the name given to an unpleasant and demanding, perfectionist bride. The first time this term was coined was in The Boston Globe, in 1995. There's a tv show which documents brides like these!
"In the first season, the majority of the subjects were young, white, spoiled, wealthy residents of New York. In subsequent seasons, the show has included a more diverse range of subjects, including older, African-American, and working class couples; couples from California,Texas, and Wisconsin. While the show is predominantly about female brides, the third season featured the show's first male bride - referred to as "Gayzilla" - Jon Taylor Carter, who was planning a wedding for he and his partner Isaac."
