    I confess that I would have rather received the can opener off my registry than the one still in the package that looked like grandma had it in her drawer for the past 20 years, rust stain and all. Same goes for a few other things. I made a registry for a reason, sorry if that makes me picky!
  • I confess i have two weddings to go to this weekend back to back (Fri night, Sat morning) and im not in the mood and i think its bc i just want mine to be here already! All of these people got engaged after FI and I and then planned theirs before ours....blah!
  • I confess that I am getting kinda nervous about these invites.  I still have to finish putting them together, get the addresses and address them.  We have been spending so much time at the gym that i haven't been able to work on them.

  • I confess that I can't motivate myself to start addressing my invitations.  I still have a month before they need to go in the mail and I know it will be a lot of work, but I just can't make myself do them right now.
  • I confess that I have had more than 1 freakout over all these details coming together. At least they've been private, or FI would never let me live it down ;) I still haven't gotten addresses for our invites, or gotten them printed, or addressed the invitations for people whose address I already know, or finalized the catering details, or paid the florist deposit, and the cupcake deposit, or finished all my diy decor items, and, and, and...

    I'm resolving to get a lot of that stuff done today. Thinking about it all is driving me nuts!!

    There. I feel better now.

  • I confess that my mother has been making me really angry lately.  I picked up my dress on Monday.  I don't want FI to see it or know what it looks like.  She keeps talking about what it looks to other people/on the phone while he's sitting right there.  I keep telling her to stop and she gets mad at ME for being upset about her talking about it to everyone.  On Sunday we had a meeting with the venue coordinator.  We were discussing something and after we finished discussing it she asked the same question we went over about 5 minutes before.  She was doing this the whole meeting and this time I got so frustrated that I crushed my water bottle in my hand.  I was on the verge of making a scene in front of the coordinator and her assistant.  I felt like such a brat but I couldn't help it.  I've had it up to here (hands above my head) with her.

  • I confess that I'm a little upset the I probably wont have a bridal shower. :(

  • Early in our engagement FI's parents said they will be helping out financially. They even put a dollar amount on it, a very nice dollar amount that adds up to 1/4 of our budget. Well it is 79 days to the wedding and they haven't mentioned a thing. I have virtually given up on them helping out. I secretly want not to give us the money because I want to be mad at them for giving FSIL double for her wedding and they can't give anything for ours. I know it is childish and immature but whatever, I'm tired of their crap.

    After The fiasco with FSIL wanting to have her husband's sisters crash my wedding reception, I don't even want to talk to her. I am so amazed that she would think it is ok to have them crash. It honestly makes me feel like she is saying "Eff you" by doing this. We saw her on Sunday and she was trying to talk to me, I was so upset that I just gave her short answers.

  • I have been stalking the UPS website all day waiting for our invites. They are in Tulsa finally but I keep stalking the site hoping it will say they are out for delivery. I feel a little crazy.

  • I am really irritated with FI dad and stepmom. They said a month and a half ago that they would pitch in another thousand and straight out asked if we wanted it now or after the wedding. I told them we could really use it now because a lot of the bigger things are on the credit card and we can pay that off pre-wedding. We still haven't seen anything and now I am in a weird place on if we should bring it up or not. I'm really just annoyed. Don't say you will and then not do it!

  • I confess that I am SO OVER DIY-ing. I have today off and should get some stuff done, but I think today's going to be a lazy TV day instead.

    I confess that I am starting to get really upset with my maid of honor.  I haven't heard from her in almost two weeks and even the last time I saw her, I barely got to say anything to her because she was wrapped up in her boyfriend.  I feel really bad for my mom and my matron of honor because my maid of honor had said she was going to help with both the bachelorette party and the bridal shower and she hasn't responded to either of them.  I think it's incredibly rude to commit yourself to someone or something and then completely flake out on them.  I have no idea what's going on with her and I'm completely out of the loop.  I asked her to be my maid of honor because I felt like we were great friends and now I feel like I have no importance to her or her life.  All I can do at this point is wait for her to respond to the numerous fb messages and texts I've left her.

  • I confess that I've had it with my mother. I've asked her sereral times for addresses or phone numbers for the past three weeks. I want to get the invitations in the mail Monday, and she is getting angry because I haven't given her enough time.

    I confess that I'm really annoyed with one of my bms, her and her boyfriend are talking about getting engaged. All she wants to do it go ring shopping and plan her future wedding. I'm happy for them, but really I have two months, can I jsut have my freaking two months and then everything can be about you!
  • I confess that I am feeling a little sorry for myself.  I am having a flower making party this weekend AFTER the appointment with the Cateror at the Venue and I'm convinced that no one will show up and actually help me make anything.  I think im being irrational, but thats what confessions are for right?  I just feel like no one is willing to help and everything, wheather it be financially or by actually doing something....is going to fall on my shoulders...I'm having a little anxiety today.

  • I confess that we find out this afternoon at 4pm if we bought a house! I am so extremely nervous, my stomach hurts and I barely slept last night.

    I confess that I've had a negative opinion of my future ILs since we started dating. However after this week, that has completely changed and now I am truly thankful to them.

    I confess that I've been having trouble balancing my life. Between work, wedding planning and training for another half marathon, and overbooking with friends, I've got a more on my plate than I can handle.

    Work is insanely busy and we're on the verge of a major (and very exciting announcement) which will make things even more busy, and yet, I've been procrastinating and playing around here thinking about wedding stuff. It's more fun, but it's not what I'm being paid to do. I get home and I want to visit friends or go out to eat rather than eat healthy and properly train for the race (which I signed up for as a way to ensure I'd work out leading up to the wedding!) Each weekend ends up being crazy and not relaxing at all because I have to actually focus on wedding tasks and make up for work I didn't quite finish at the office.

    This is all a viscious cycle that I must break!

  • I confess that last night I had a total emotional blowout with FI last night. We talked things out and everything is ok but I still feel really bad. I've been taking my wedding stress out on him and I feel horribly guilty.

  • I confess I am suffering from a handwriting-inferiority-complex. I addressed the first invitation last night and burst into tears from how horrible I thought it looked and all the stress with work and the wedding and yelled at FI about things. He was so sweet and gave me my teddy bear and cuddled me until I stopped crying. I confess that at moments like these I can only hope that I'm able to love him as much as he loves me.

  • i confess that i would really like to lose like 10lbs and have no motivation and hate exercise! and i dont eat healthy either so i have no idea how the weight would just magically disapear! lol p.s. i just ate 6 chips ahoy choc chip cookies < so that didnt help>
  • I confess that I am nervous all of our guests are going to RSVP yes for the wedding (127), because that will be a ton more money than the 80 or so we are hoping for.

    I also confess that I wish more people would post their day-of timelines, so I can get motivated to actually work on mine!

    It bothers me when I hear someone I know gets engaged after only knowing the person for a month or two and they are in such a hurry to get married. One person I know actually said they were trying to beat my fi and I to the alter. Its not a race. Just because you got married to your SO after only knowing each other for 3 to 6 months doesn't mean it will last. FI and I have been together for 7.5 years, w have been through a lot together and we don't take getting married lightly so we didn't rush, we waited until we knew the relationship was going to last. No offense to anyone on here who is in this category, some people know sooner than others. Its just the part about it being a competion that really annoys me.

  • I confess that i would like to have" my new chapter" in my life to shine!My sister had hers at her wedding three years ago,also at baby number one,and now found out two days ago she is pregnant with baby number two!Cmon i have 72 days left till I get married..I just want my time.I know it sounds selfish,but I have waited my whole live for this day.And so far, NO ONE at all has helped plan my wedding,spoke about plans  for shower or bachelorette party,or even wedding shopped with me!Iam feeling lonely through this whole process.
  • I confess that I'm getting really annoyed with someone that I'd like to still consider my best friend. She moved a month ago and still hasn't given me her address. She hasn't responded to any texts where I've asked her specific questions, yet she'll send me a text about something completely random a few hours later, completely ignoring what I've asked her. I was a nice friend and put her on my cell phone plan so she could save some money, and then she hasn't paid her bill for two months and blamed me for "not telling her the right amount to pay" when I know good and well she has gone online and looked at the bill herself. My FI had to pay her part to keep our phones from being shut off, on top of the fact I paid for her new phone with the understanding she'd add that cost to the next month's bill, and now she owes the two of us several hundred dollars. When she moved, she claimed that she "couldn't fit" some of the things of mine that were still at her house - keep in mind, she moved the same weekend I did and I didn't have time to drive two hours out of my way to go pick them up since she informed me of this two hours before she had to be out of the house. I told her to give me her landlord's information and I'd make arrangements with him to pick them up the next day. She never did, and never told me whether she was able to miraculously fit said items or left them behind. Again, with the never responding to direct questions. To top it off, she also won't answer my phone calls. I'm really glad I decided to not ask her to be a bridesmaid - she's a complete drama queen and I didn't want to deal with that in my bridal party. I see now I made the right choice, no matter how close we were when I asked my BP.

    Speaking of BP, I'm pretty sure my bridesmaids are going to show up naked. I still only have one with a dress.
