African American Weddings

Groomzilla sigh

So some of y'all know I don't really want a wedding he does and he wants a big wedding
So we compromised and said destination wedding
We *which is really him * are paying for this out of our pockets
My dad could have helped but he is not here any more so it's on us *again him*

I am looking for venues as we speak and I asked him to send me his guest list... Didn't get it yet
So on date night this is the convo that happend
Me: baby, how many are on your guest list
Him: oh 180
Me: blink blink 180?! Uh
Him: oh I know I can cut that in half
Me: half?! That's 90 people with out my family, the wedding party or us ugh really
You know that you are paying for this because I don't have a real job
Him: yeah I know, I plan to get my beg on at the family reunion

  • Girl.. his guest list is BEYOND!!!!.. especially for a destination wedding.

    Where were you thinking of going for the wedding? Some islands currency double or triple the us dollars (like Barbados).. you might wanna consider an island like that to stretch your (his) money!..

  • Hey diva! we are the EXACT same way! We were supposed to go to vegas and get married but he wanted the whole production with the boy and his parents and gm's and bm's. and there's no way in H*LL i'm gonna hear the word mom in vegas. So anyways, we decided to just do it here (it ended up being a little cheaper). BUT my advice to you. if he wants to be in charge of everything. keep an EYE on him. mine is starting to do everything halfa$$. not only are are invites messed up but he broke all the vases that were going on the tables. also break the numbers down to him. he'l might be thinking $1000 will cover it when all reality you looking at $35/per person. so show him that 35x180.

  • ooh this is the kicker he wants this wedding but I am the one who is planning it
    i asked him about that the other night... like how am i the one planning this shebang and you want it.... wtf really?! 
    *sigh* but i already know that if i want stuff done right and in a timely manner i have to do it... been that way since we have been together.... 

    i wont even get on the engagement pics..... which we are supposed to take in september 

    i am glad i have yall to listen to me and understand lol 
    thanks divas 

    oh i told him the guest list will be 75 OR LESS and that includes us the wedding party of 12 and my family too so he already knows that 180 is a foollywag mess lol
