Who'd be a Bridesmaid?!!

Regular readers will know that we at Devant are big fans of getting agreements set out clearly in writing to prevent misunderstandings. But even we were stunned by this contract prepared by a US bride for her bridesmaids! It rather makes the fun of dressing up pale into insignificance, doesn't it?!
