Can I vent here with my fellow sista's???So it's 5 days before the wedding and I find out that my sister (and her husband) and my Aunt, who also happens to be my Godmother, will not be attending my wedding.NO I am not Joking... I have been slaving over planning a wedding far in advance for these "folks" to find a sitter for my special day and no one has found a sitter yet. I know at first everyone was pissed because I wanted a "adult" only reception. Does anyone find this offensive?? I don't, especially considering the "Be-Be" kids that would have been in attendance. I would prefer to not have to deal with the agravation of these kids running around acting up on my day. Personally, when I am invited to a wedding, I would prefer not to bring my child, because I like to enjoy myself at the ceremony and reception.The second problem they are having with my wedding is that it happens to be 45 minutes from my hometown and everyone wants me to getting married in the church I was raised in. Well, I don't mean to sound like a brat, but I always envisioned myself walking down a center aisle, and my "home" church does not have that. Besides, I have been attending this new church for over a year and I really love it. I would love to start my new life with my soul mate in "OUR" church, not "my" church. Am I wrong???Ahhh... so the husband to be is home.. I am sure I will be venting in the near future... hopefully everyone else attends so I don't have to (as my mom would say) BLESS someone out!{I labeled it part 1 because I know there is more to come}
Thank you Ladies. I will DO ME.. I am tired of the comments and criticisms...If they wanted it different, they could have paid for it, right??? I am tired of everyone's opinions and it's my day and My husband to be and I will do what we please!!
Welcome to my world...Chile You hit the nail on the head...Like I tell ALL my Brides.."This is YOUR DAY!!!Peirod...Honey you cannot get stressed over everybodies comments..you gotta have tough skin..I promise you..if you do it YOUR WAY...NOBODIES GONNA DIE..
?uestion...Y does the ppl we love the most act the biggest fools?..It happens in EVERY wedding I have done...and I been in the bus. 15yrs..As you can tell by the way i talk..I dont take NO MESS when It comes to taking care of my brides or my business..I HAVE to be this way because EVERYbody got opinions...and my motto is...
"Dont give me your opinion..even if I ask for it"...
Baby DO YOU..thats the best advice I can give you...But I dont like kids at weddings either..They really not suppose to be there unless their in the wedding..and believe me..they run, and cry all over the place...with parents who dont know how to control them..I've seen them knock over centerpieces and cakes..oh and they love to pull on table cloths..
I TOTALLY AGREE with you on that one..
I feel for you sweetie. I know that it has hurt your feelings because your family members have not made arrangements to attend your wedding but again this is your wedding. Family love hard and they hurt hard without even realizing it. The stress that comes around this special day both amazes and excites me.
Do not worry, you are not the only person that has this issue occur and will not be the last. I tell my brides that the ultimate decision on how your wedding vision is executed is up to you and your soon-to-be husband not anyone else. It is you and him against the world so just get prepared for the road that you are getting ready to get on because you will have many difficult situations similar to this one later on down the line.
