Is it OK to ask bridesmaids to pay for their own dresses?

I'm the MOH for my best friend and I think lately she's turning into a bit of a bridezilla. She sent me a picture of her wedding band, and as I was so busy at work and didn't want her to think I was ignoring her, I sent an email back saying "Looks really cool. Not really my style but I think it would look really lovely with your engagement ring". I got this huge ESSAY back from her about how other people have said it's gorgeous and my comment was hurtful and offended her and it's been emails back and forth (she lives in SA and I'm in the UK) and she always has to have the last word and be right, even though I've apologised for the comment and have said that it wasn't worded properly, she's still going on and on about the issue and wants to "make me realise how much my comment hurt and offended her". I said to her that I think she's blowing things out of proportion and I've tried to apologise, but she's not letting it go :( This is now the third wedding issue I've had with her in 2 months (first one was why I chose another best friend to be my MOH instead of her, the second was her strongly-voiced opinion on my views on a catholic wedding and now this) and my head is about to explode! Please can someone give me some advice on how to deal with her, because I love her to bits, but I just want to her to relax and calm down. :(

Best Friend=Bridezilla??

To be honest, I can completely understand why she got so upset at you saying 'Well ist not my taste'. You didnt really need to say that did you? Just say you think its beautiful, even if its hideous if you know she really loves it.
This is the most special day of her life and she wants to think that she is having THE most beautiful day ever, not that people think 'well, I personally wouldnt chose that'
I am sure she doesnt mean to be so stressed and such a nightmare with you, but she cant help it, so try be more understanding.
