Ok since I'm really annoyed and needed to just get this out here it goes!

I know I've B&M, FFF, and SA Wednesday this, but I think I hit my breaking point. I am so DONE with people asking to come to my wedding!!! I had a girl from High School who I decides on my birthday to send me a message on facebook asking to come to the wedding.
She said," Hey I know you aren't suppose to do this, but I wanted to know if I can come to your wedding... Sorry but can I have an invite? Hope your doing well and Happy birthday" Honestly!!! So I asked in my blunt, tired of dealing with this way. "Why do you want to come to my wedding? Since we haven't talked or seen eachother in 8 years?"
her response, " I thought it was be a pretty wedding" REALLY!! This is why.. Not because we use to be friends and you want to be there for me or something remotely personal. NO you want to come because it will be PRETTY! I haven't responded because I was so blown away and pissed as you can tell. Does anyone else deal with this many people asking to come to your wedding? I've had at least 20, then you have to add the plus on and that's 40 extra people. Are you kidding?

Second.. My sister still hasn't turned in my VISA request for my trip to India in two weeks. I gave her the application two weeks ago and she is just now getting around to it. She said she thinks it can be done in one day and I hope she's right. If she's not it will take 3 weeks like I read and then it will be too late. Thus, $2000 plane ticket down the drain. The only reason I found this out. She can't find my pics for it. I had to go get new ones made yesterday and overnight them to her today. I would get mad about this but getting mad at her will accomplish nothing. I should have just taken a day off and done it myself. I'm really kicking myself for not doing it. My older sister is normally so reliable, I have no clue what happened. I will just send it to her and pray it's done. I would hate to miss my cousin's wedding over something so stupid.

Thank you for letting me vent. I feel a ton better!

Yikes, those are both really annoying things to have to deal with! I would have blown a gasket a long time ago!

Can you get a rush on your visa to make sure it's done on time? I think there is an option for that. Will your sister take it in person or via mail? It might cost a little more to put a rush on it, but at least you will know it will be ready in time for the trip.

As for your "friend" I wouldn't even respond to her. Does she even know your FI's name or be able to recoginize who he was if she saw him on the street? No. So there's no reason to invite her. You're a better person than I was. My dad wanted to invite all these other people, I said no. We had a guest list anda budget to stick to, too bad.

glad you got it out!

Guestlist....so my parents wanted to invite everyone....so everytime the guestlist came up in the house it was an arguement.  It's harder dealing with your parents and them wanting to invite the world

Good luck with the visa thing hun....I didn't go to India for my shopping so if all else fails and you want to make a trip to Toronto let me know I can give you the name of some shops

Get your visa request in NOW. My Mom is going to a wedding in India and her visa was denied based on the fact that she needed more paperwork. The mother of the groom was also denied! Get on that!

Thanks girls for the confidence. She is going in person.

Mrs.BM I don't care as much about the shopping because my sisters could have gotten everything if it was a big deal . It was more for my cousin's wedding. I would hate to miss that.
