I believe

(to the tune of Blue Collar Comedy Tour......)

if you do not contribute to the wedding, you do not get an opinion......

Re: I believe

  • Well everyone is entitled to their own opinion but they should keep them to themselves.

  • YES.  although i believe  you do not get an opinion unless you are the bride or groom.
  • And on that note, this the bride and groom's wedding, not the mother of the bride.

    (Yes, I'm speaking from experience. Ugh.)

    As a parent I'm gonna say right now... there's no such thing as financial stability! Lol. The money seems to go crazy when kids are involved!

    I think I am having the opposite problem (not that it is a truly bad thing!).

    My Mother is handling the flowers - corsages, bouts, bouquet. She kept saying "Is this what you want?" "Like this?"

    When we went shopping for dresses, my sister (MOH) and the consultant kept saying "How do you picture the dress your MOH wears?" I really just wanted her to be comfortable...

    FI only has opinions that add additional costs - "Honey, I want a chocolate fountain. Let's do that!"

    Preacher dude said "Here's my most basic ceremony - go google and tell me what you want"

    :)

    I know it is silly, but I am really ready for someone else to be in charge!
