“He reached down to put one arm under her knees and one on her back and lifted her bridal style.”
"As soon as we arrived, he carried me bridal style..."
"He carried me bridle style, laying me on the bed once we got to his room."
They're many variations to this one, Bridal Style, Bridle Style, even the occasional Birdle Style.
Guys!! A Bridle is the headgear used to control a horse, consisting of buckled straps to which a bit and reins are attached.
My question is, who started this mess?!
I get it, he carried he like a bride, but seriously, as an author can't you find better words to describe this?! Even if it's just, "he carried me" I'd prefer it!
I swear I see this in every high school romance, teen fiction, werewolf, fanfic book. Go on google, type in "Bridal Style Wattpad" and be amazed. Seriously guys, can we not?
