uuugggghhh! (rant)

I am so ready to say screw the big, traditional wedding, and just go to the dang beach!Not only do I get irritated just THINKING about wedding planning (because I've reached that point where I just don't really care anymore because I have too much other stuff to worry about), but it seems like everything that I've planned thus far is going down the toilet.The majority of people that I asked to be a part of my wedding are letting me down and leaving me with no one (and these are all family members).My older sister was supposed to take care of the book and some other things and three of her children were going to be involved (ring bearer, flower girl, and junior bridesmaid).  Well, she went off the deep end and now I can't even SEE any of them anymore.My younger brother--who can't really help it--is being deployed to Afghanistan two months before the wedding, and won't be back for a year.My cousin who I asked months ago and she agreed to do hair and makeup, and her daughter was to be a junior bridesmaid--she won't return calls, emails, anything.  So now, I'm stuck without a stylist and yet again, no junior bridesmaid.Ugh, I've just about reached my limit.  I don't think I can be nice anymore when people ask me about the planning because I'm going that crazy.  Sorry for the long rant; I just had to let it out :(

    Oh no!  That all sounds awful, and I'm so sorry you're going through that.  :(But take a deep breath and relax.  You don't have to have a junior bridesmaid...just go on as planned.  It's sad that people that mean a lot to you are being so douchey, but you'll only stress yourself out more by dwelling on it.I'm sorry that people are showing their true colors, but think about the most important part of the day - you and Josh getting married.  Not the decorations or programs, or even the people who are standing up there with you.

    Thanks Danielle! And you're right.  I talked to my MOH about it all this morning and she said the same thing--not to stress over the little details.  The people that are sticking by my side have been more than helpful and I am so thankful for them! And Josh has been a tremendous help, too. I know my wedding day is going to be perfect and that I'm going to be beyond happy.  But at the same time, I'll miss those that are so important to me.

    It's not really that she won't let us, but more like an impossibility.  My sister moved here with her four kids last summer to "get away from a bad situation" in New Mexico.  Well, she got involved with a very bad crowd and some horrible situations (drugs, etc.) and ended up sending her kids back to New Mexico to live with their father and grandmother while she stays here and continues down the wrong path.  But with money situations right now, it's difficult to make arrangements to actually see them.
