In return, all 27 brides she helped serve as her bridesmaids at her wedding ceremony. It sounds romantic, right? However, such a thing is romantic in China. It is said that girls should never be a bridesmaid more than 3 times. Otherwise, she will never find a man to get married. No one knows who said this but many moms tell their daughters to observe this strange rule because they don’t want to see their daughter be lonely all their lives. Girls, how many times have you been a bridesmaid?

Kevin, just relax. There is only one rule: just make sure that you haven't gotten married yet. I don't know where such a saying comes from. Yesterday, I just read that a girl in Hangzhou had been a bridesmaid 19 times. She almost became a professional one. She never believed that a girl who has been a bridesmaid more than 3 times will not find her Mr. Right.

Forget to say, my parents tell me that groomsman can't dress up prettier than the groom. Just remember that the groom and the bride are the focus at the wedding ceremony.

In my opinion, girls shouldn't be a bridesmaid many times. It is not because of the rule. You see, bridesmaid must be unmarried. Do you ever think how other people think of you if you are a bridesmaid many times?
