However, there are occasions when the bridezilla label seems to fit the bill nicely.
For example, sending the person responsible for your wedding cake a blistering email, slamming their efforts and describing the cake as "ugly".
Sounds horrid, doesn't it? Sadly this is what baker Jordan Rondel, who runs Auckland bakery The Caker, had to recently deal with.
Jordan had been working on this two-tier wedding cake with pink icing.
But her client wasn't happy with the fruits of her labour, and put it in an email.
"I don't know how I've paid for the simplest cake with minimal decorations and paid the amount I have just coz it's 'The Caker'," the bride fumed.
"This is just unacceptable. This is the ugliest cake I've seen. I want a full refund."
She then signed off with a charming: "I expect a reply back". Nice!
Rondel shared the bride's email on her Instagram and Facebook page, adding that she was "completely shook" by the feedback.
The Caker has plenty of loyal supporters, and they rallied.
"Wow, isn't that signature Caker style?! LOVE IT! Bet it tastes amazing too, which is the best part!" one fan wrote.
"It's beautiful, love the colour!! Be proud of your style, that’s why we all love what you do!!!" reassured another.
There were a couple of people, however, who did see where the bride was coming from.
"It's quite a naked cake, and the flowers do look a bit haberdashery. Not ugly, but I can see where someone might be a bit underwhelmed."
Well, you can't please everybody...
