Open letter thursday!!

Re: Open letter thursday!!

  • dear world: 

    I am tired of my "aheming" hiatus and ready for it to be July 28th. NOW. 

    love
    deprived bride 
  • Dear FILs,

    You say that you want to help but then when I ask for help with songs for the ceremony you can't be bothered and say, "whatever you want."  I WANT help with this!  Don't say you're going to help if you don't mean it.  Or you only mean help with putting things together because really there isn't anything to help with in that regard anymore!

    Sincerely,
    In Need of Help Bride

    Dear FI,

    Don't spring on me at the last minute that you think the reception is ending too early and we need an after party now.  Do it yourself!  Oh wait, you can't because you don't know the area so I get to do it.

    Sincerely,
    Your future wife who doesn't want to party till 3am

  • Dear FMIL:

    Please stop telling people that the picnic on Sunday after the wedding is a wedding reception Also your "shared dish" should not be vegetables and dip that you are going to cut up with no sinks to wash them in at a picnic table.  

    Sincerely,

    Annoyed.

    Dear Fiance,

    When I told you to confirm that the guests who had not RSVPed at all were NOT COMING, I meant it. Now two of your friends are pissed at us because they never received their invitation (which is also your fault because you gave me the wrong address).

    If they decide to come from Cincinnati after all, they will not get the room block rate, I will not be making them an out-of-town bag, they will not be on our pretty seating chart, and they will have to be stuck at the back table wtih my mom's extended work friend table.

    You know, because it's NINE DAYS before the freakin wedding.

    SORRY NOT SORRY.

    xooxox,
    your bridezilla

  • Dear FSMIL

    When I told you that I dont care about what pictures are taken with FI before the ceremony I was being 100% honest.  STOP ASKING ME!  For once in his life FI can learn to coordinate something on his own, if he doesnt want to the pictures will just be taken when the ceremony is over, again I DONT CARE.  Oh also please stop asking FI if he wants to use your classic T-Bird as a photo prop  He doesnt even like the car he is just too nice to say otherwise!

    Thanks A Bunch
    xoxo Becoming a Bridezilla

  • Dear Guests who haven't RSVP'd,

    Seriously! We are now 6 days past the RSVP date - when I call you, text or facebook you - you can't be bothered to respond. Fine just remember you will have no food at the reception, no place to sit.

    Sincerely,
    Your annoyed friend

    Dear guests who have RSVP'd but THINK you are bringing your children,

    Seriously! This was noted on the RSVP card, the website and verbally told to you by the MOH. Children are not invited so stop trying to sneak them in. And no "your child" cannot count as your plus one.

    Sincerely,
    Your very annoyed friend

    Dear FI,

    Seriously! I have asked you for 6 days to begin calling the RSVPs who you haven't heard from and you haven't yet started. Our count has to be in on Monday and you are running out of time! DO IT NOW!.

    Love,
    Your very, very annoyed fiance

    Dear Mom,

    Seriously! Stop trying to sneak decorations into the reception that I already told you I didn't want. No - I don't want 1000 lights in the tent because its a waste of money and our reception is during the day!

    Love,
    Your very, very, very annoyed daughter

  • Dear FSMIL AGAIN!

    Please Please Please for the 100millionth time send me your seating chart.  I need to figure out what tables these people will actually be sitting at based on the floor plan AND I also need to create the escort cards for each everyone of them.  All of this needs to be at the venue by next friday- So all of this needs to be finished one week from today.. Along with 100 million other things that I am doing on my own!! So get to to it!

  • Dear FI's STEP MOTHER,

    You're driving us INSANE!!! Stop showing up unannounced and bugging the crap out of us. Stop calling 20 times a day. Get this. FI really doesn't even want you there! Stop acting crazy and saying I told you I didn't want you to come help decorate because you would be trying to change stuff. (Even if I thought that) I didn't say it! I only said..I want it to be a surprise to everyone on Friday and Saturday! I can't deal with all the extra people hanging around like vultures waiting on something to die.

    Sincerly,
    Irritated



    Also..Dear Grandmother,

    STOP INVITING PEOPLE WE DON'T EVEN KNOW!! I haven't seen Nelda since I was 9 and Ms. Sue?! Who the devil is that?! UGH!! We told the caterer a specific number and we have already sent out extra invites as it is! STOP!! 
     
    Love,
    Your granddaughter

  • Dear Rental Company,

    So 4 months ago I confirmed my rental with you. You said it would be ready to pick up on Thursday before the event in the morning. When FI comes to pick up and stuff and I get a call that says "She doesn't have chair covers", I freak out. Not a little. ALOT. I understand yesterday was a holiday but what about working Tuesday?! They better be in this afternoon. Got that?!

    Sincerely,

  • Dear Holiday in the Middle of the Week:

    You have me completely thrown off.  I kept thinking you were Saturday, and now I think today is Monday.  Exhausted.

    XOXO,

    Dear Coffee,

    THANK YOU!!  You are the only reason I'm awake right now.

    XOXO,

    I gave up on FI after 2 days of asking. I'm pretty sure he was annoyed by my asking, because the third day I said, "I'll send FB messages to all those people if you don't have a chance to get to it today", and he finally said "go for it" - so like a creepy stalker (b/c I'm not friends on FB with any of these people) I did.  May be tacky to send FB private messages about it, but I got it done.
  • Dear Catholic Guilt,

    Why did I let you prevent me from moving in with my FI much sooner than 3 weeks prior to the wedding?  I hate that we let you keep us from spending lots of quality alone time together. 

    Don't worry, though, we're making up for it..... *ahem*

    Love,

    Sinner

  • hahahahaha k8888 hahaha. but like bridetobe no sympathy for you right now since you are currently aheming!
  • Lol I told my FI about all of you guys taking a month break from aheming and he said I can see why people do it but our wedding night is still going to be special for us.  Lol I said good way of trying to talk me out of it!  Now that we are at 2 weeks I should withhold.

  • Dear dj, You scheduled this meeting with my venue after many times of me asking when it will be so I can ask my venue coordinator some questions at the same time. It is very rude to be over a half an hour late with only 5 minutes notice. Please do not do this on my wedding day or you will not be paid.
