Cinderella Bride

Cinderella is a well-known classic folk tale embodying a myth-element of unjust oppression/triumphant and reward.
The word "cinderella" has, by analogy, come to mean one whose attributes are unrecognised, or one who unexpectedly achieves recognition or success after a period of obscurity and neglect.

A Cinderella Bride is a woman who is unrecognizable on her wedding day because of her new found beauty. Usually the bride has used her wedding date as motivation to lose weight and dropped many pounds. She splurges on a beautiful dress that she would otherwise never have put on because she prefers to wear sweats and t-shirts. She has her hair uncharacteristically styled at a chic salon and her make-up done by an artist.

Like Cinderella, when the ball is over, she goes back to being plain and mundane. But, she does have some nice pictures.
"Andrea was a Cinderella Bride. She dropped like 50 lbs, put on some make-up for the first time and looked great in her wedding dress."

As brave as a falling star

Poetic way of telling someone that they are extremely brave or heroic. But it is also used ironically when their bravery goes too far and turns into madness.
The term "falling star" is used because symbolically, the rocks that turn into shooting stars have the courage to enter the Earth's dangerous thick atmosphere in order to make skywatchers happy and allow them to make a wish.
Person 1: Have you read in the newspaper that this guy conquered all of his biggest fears and revealed all of his secrets to the public in order for his crush to accept having him as her boyfriend?
Person 2: Wow, so it is true that love makes you as brave as a falling star.

bravehorse

(Verb) To have an intense, exclusive, one-sided conversation with another person in a social setting. Derived as a makeshift compound word, inspired by the pivotal scene in the movie “Braveheart” where William Wallace (played by Mel Gibson) gives a passionate, heartfelt speech atop a horse while his charges listen attentively. Bravehorsing is generally initiated by an intoxicated partygoer forcing banter on an often involuntary and unwitting victim. Although the person bravehorsing always believes the discussion is of paramount importance, the other party generally disagrees and is usually made quite uncomfortable. Simultaneous bravehorsing is possible, and also quite common between two especially drunk people.
1. "Look at him, just pouring his heart out about his ex to that girl right at the bar…he’s totally bravehorsing her."
2. Person 1: "Where are Elle and Ryan?"
Person 2: "They’re outside bravehorsing the shit out of each other. Looks like they’ll be gone for a while."
3. "Dude check out that girls fachays…I’m gonna just bravehorse her until she comes home with me."
4. "We need to talk. Watch out, I’m probably gonna bravehorse you pretty bad."
5. "Oh man, you were stuck in that conversation for like 2 hours! You got bravehorsed bad."
