Most surprising / least surprising wedding annoyance.

By far the least surprising wedding annoyance was the guest list and everything to do with it (I basically fought with my parents over who to include / drop from the list, who to seat where, etc, not getting RSVP's even remotely on-time and then having to chase people down to give me a final answer).By far the most surprising was the registry.  Not only did I hate doing it (a huge shock) but I get SO much flack for it that the thought of going back to register again makes me sick!

Re: Most surprising / least surprising wedding annoyance.

  • I'm not keen on the idea of registering either. I don't feel like we need anything and I hate asking people for stuff.

  • I hated registering for stuff.  It was frustrating and took too long.
  • I didn't really enjoy the whole registering process, but as a wedding guest I hate it when there is no registry.  I won't be fussed if we don't really get anything off it (apart from the china mum & dad have already bought). Least surprising annoyance was family drama.  Most surprising was that I hated the whole process of figuring out what the hell I was going to wear.
  • I'm not into registries, but FI wants one. I need to go with him, or else he'll only register for martini glasses, a new sleeping bag, and hiking boots.So far the most surprising annoyance are my vendors. Venues NOT calling or emailing me back, period, or stopping contact with me. Or the two DJs who are super-insistent. One used to call me about twice a day.

  • I haven't really been annoyed by anything. So far everything has gone pretty smoothly. I realize that I just totally jinxed myself by saying that.
  • I didn't register (or do a wishing well, which is common here) and I didn't regret it for a second.My most surprising annoyance was having to purchase a dress a week and a half before the wedding (and how awesomely that turned out).
  • Thesun.. if that is your dress in the picture, it looks AMAZING and photographed so beautifully!  I'm a little nervous about mine - the detail of the dress is in its construction and I don't know that a camera will pick that up well.
