Illinois-Chicago

Wednesday...Vent day! This board has been slow...

I don't have much to vent about as it's been a great week so far but feel free to vent if you need to! 

Although I have to say, lurking on other boards sometimes makes me sick!  I cannot believe how rude some people are!  I just went on a special topic board hoping to find a post about a particular subject, and MAN! some of those girls are just mean!

Thank goodness for the IL-Chicago Board!

    I am tired of wedding planning right now.  I have a long ways to go -- but im tired of thinking about it.

    I hear you!!!  I have 44 days left or something like that, and I'm exhausted.  I feel like I have so much left to do and we just go, go, go every single day.

    LIB you and I seem to be on the same track- right now I am looking for a DJ as well. I think I am going to try and convince my FI to go with Rex Albrecht even though he is more than some of the companies because he has such great reviews.

    1.5 weeks away, and holy crap, there's so much left to do!!!  And even though I have tons of people willing to help, it's not things that I can really pass off without basically working with them to get it done.  Things like the seating chart (my mom doesn't know his family, and vice versa), the escort cards (my sister's and mom's printers aren't very good, and jam with odd sized paper), the timeline, the "must take" pictures, the honeymoon packing list, etc... 

    That, and with the final number due Saturday, we still have people who haven't decided!  I'm thinking about subtracting at least 2 from our final count, and just couning on them flaking, so I don't end up paying like in the other post.

    OMG OMG OMG OMG.. do NOT go with rex... I just got married about a month ago, and literally rex is the worst possible memory i have from my wedding.  We gave him a list of 200-300 songs to play from. He kept playing whatever he wanted, to the point where I had to send our best man TWICE to tell him to start playing our songs.  I said no rat pack music during dinner because it is too cliche, I sit down, he plays dean martin and frank sinatra, right in a row. When our best man told him to play what we requested, he came up behind me and my husband eating our first dinner together to complain to us.  His speakers blew out at our wedding, he was hired to lead a trivia night the night before and he didnt even bring a microphone.  It was a complete failure because the trivia was for 75 people. Rex was rude to my parents and my friends.  Don't believe me?  I have him on youtube doing just that to prove it.  Here's the messed up thing, I had been going to rex for trivia for the last few years.  I thought I knew him.  What a mistake.  Find anyone but him.
