Groomzilla! Funny and obnoxious...

So...this was a post from someone that is a FB friend, but not someone I'm close with. WOW...is all I have to say. It's taking so much not to respond, so instead, I'll just post it here! ha ha

"I am just so sick and tired of people telling me how to freakin run Jamie and my wedding. IT'S OUR WEDDING! if you have a suggustion cool but don't bitch about things we have a) paid for -or- b) had planned since we started talking about getting married (ex. The brides maids are wearing low top chucks and the grooms me...n are wearing vans!) Deal with it or bow the f**** out of our wedding. You should be humbled and honnored that we even thought of you to stand with us on our big day. And if this high school drama goes on I swear to the God above I'll cut my ties with ALL of you.
And if I hear about the brides maids bitching about dresses or the colors one more f***ing time I swear I will snap your head off. Again this is our wedding and with Jamie and myself footing the majority of the bill for you people you people have NO PLACE to say a damn thing. I'm not playing anymore games with people being disrespectful, bitchy about having to wear chucks instead of heels, agruing over colors, or how much time you have to spend between the parties and rehersal dinners. I'll repeat myself it is an honor to be a part of a wedding party and you should be humble that we thought you were a good enough of a friend to be in our wedding. And I know I seems to ruffle alot of feathers and then noone comes to me about what I said so instead of running and crying to Jamie about what I said you come straight to me. You all have my number and I will gladdly talk it out with you about the comments I just made. And if you do talk to Jamie she will tell you to come to me anyways so... "

    Wow, I'm shocked that a grrom cares this much about small details of his wedding and how big of a d*&# he is about it.

    Holy cow. Sounds like he's snapped. The whole "you should be honored" bit is a ridiculous overinflated sense of importance. Although I have to say, I am sick of hearing other people's opinions of what we should do.

    Wow, I'm guessing that based on the guys/grooms I know that things had to be pretty bad for him to say all that. Unless the bride over dramatizes things to him when she tells him all the stories? At any rate, very interesting!!

    Yikes.  Was that his status update?  Let us know later if anyone comments on it.  LOL.

    BTW, what are low cut chucks?  I get that they are shoes, but I have never heard of them.

    I'm getting on the phone right now and telling people they should be honored and humbled to be a part of our big day. Why didn't I think of that before? lol


    This guy sounds like a peach with some serious conflict resolution skills! Good luck being married to Sgt. Slaughter!

    I think that's hilarious!  I'm having some issues with my b's, but I would never say that.  I'm guessing he's under a lot of stress...

    Actually, my FI partially sounds like that.  My BM's keep telling me what we ARE going to do for the wedding, what our dresses ARE going to look like, what centerpieces we ARE going to have, etc.  It is very frustrating.  I love my girls, but they can't seem to remember it's our day, not theirs.  We are both tired of it, and he is more vocal than I am.  He may not go as far to say they are honored, but he will say, if you don't like, then just please don't do it.  We don't need the drama.  I think this guy is being over dramatic himself, but maybe he is just fed up.

    Ya know, he's a nice guy. At least that I know of. lol
    I get his frustration. I was fortunate to have an awesome BP, but I've read plenty of bad stories from being on this board. However, there are several failures here.

    #1 It was his FB status update this a.m.
    #2 I cannot believe that he feels their friends should be humbled & honored that they are considered good enough friends to be part of their day.
    #3 This will likely ruin friendships.
    #4 I am guessing that they are not paying for the dresses or the shoes for the BP, and to expect people to feel so honored is pretty insulting.
    #5 Lots of grammar issues in that post. lol

    There is a much better way about handling the issues they are having. They are also having a dry reception because the bride & groom don't drink. They don't think they should have to pay for something they don't believe in doing. Until a year ago, he was drinking heavily (he is 22) & gave it up entirely. Now is he very involved w/ his church & believes that drinking will ruin everyone's lives.

    Oh...no responses on his status...yet. lol

    Wow - I would not be honored but be annoyed to be his friend. I'm sorry but just because someone has a glass of wine doesn't mean they will ruin their lives with booze. He reminds me of Spencer Pratt for some reason.

    It is taking everything in me to avoid commenting & stay out of it. I really hope I can refrain from saying anything to him when I see him. I just have to remember....it's not my problem or my business even though he posted it on FB. Let's hope that works! lol

    Ha no! We're actually coworkers. I think the wedding is going to be small. I'm pretty sure it's going to be in Frankenmuth, at least that's what he told me when they got engaged.

    There is one response, but IDK if he's part of the BP or not. His friend said he's dressing as Peter Criss from KISS. lol

    LOL.  I'd have a hard time keeping my mouth shut when I saw him at work.

    WOW.  I can understand being frustrated but advertising it on facebook will only make things 1000x worse.  Don't air your dirty laundry for everyone to see.

    Is it just me or the line about feeling honored and humbled is just a more PC way of saying "Bow down, B*TCH"

    dry wedding? sounds like a hoot with having to deal with him! he's a church-going-man.... talking like that isn't very Christian, now is it?
    There are MANY more tasteful ways to say "i'm fed up". he definitely has a right to address the issue, but it should be a private matter not for all of FB to read.
    if i was part of the BP, i'd say "screw you buddy!!"
    Although i have to say- i'd be a fan of the chucks lol i hate heels!

    Luckily, I was busy when he walked in. I kinda want to tell him what we did. We had our GM wear chucks. We bought them for all of them. We knew they'd never wear them again and it was cheaper than renting tux shoes that will hurt their feet all night.
    He really needs a reality check, which I'm sure will come soon enough. He's in for a lot more fun if he gets this upset already! ha ha

    And I agree...not very Christian-like...he is flat out threatening them! lol
