8 days before my wedding day and my Mom still not involved...

8 days before my big day and i'm really excited. My Mom and my Sister's not so much. Although one of my sister's did offer to make a rehersal dinner for us next Thursday but I declined because I know she's really sick and it's to much of a hassle. Plus she didn't even really talk to me she had my Mom relay the message.
It's 8 days away and my Mom isn't really involved. I had to call my step-mother today to ask her if she had "something borrowed" I could use for my wedding. It's a bit disappointing. I have really really been trying hard not to think about it. But for some reason today I have a bit of an attitude with her.I feel a little angry.

Re: 8 days before my wedding day and my Mom still not involved...

  • That's sad to hear :( My mom has not been involved that much at all, but it is a completely different story. I live in FL and she lives in PA. It was very hard not having her here to help me pick out my dress or plan the wedding and all the other stuff there was to do. My FI's mom has been the one helping me since she is right here. At least you have your step mother helping you. My MOH just got engaged before Christmas and went last Sunday to pick out her dress. Her mom is going to be there for her EVERY step of the way. I'm a little jealous to be honest. My mom is flying in on Jan 27 with my dad. It is going to be her FIRST FLIGHT EVER! She is so nervous and scared, but is doing it for me.

  • I can understand the anger. I am getting angry at my MOH. I am sorry that no one is invovled.
  • I'm sorry. Hopefully she'll be very happy and supportive for your on your wedding day.

  • Have you talked about this with her?  I am sorry that she isn't involved, but I promise on your wedding day, you will see how many people actually care about you.  I cried like 50 times cause it was so touching.
  • My mom has been helpful but FI mom is not even going to come. At least yours is supporting you by attending. My mom did not go with me to get my dress and when I took it to her house to show it to her she did nt even ask if I wanted to try it on she just peeked in the bag that hurt my feelings. But anyway I know on the day she will be there and supportive and I hope the same for you.

    i finally found the one!

    Oh that's terrible, isnt it strange to you though, you would think they would be excited. My new MOH told me she thinks my mom is jealous

  • I could see your mom being jelous. Honestly, I think a lot of people get jelouse at weddings by seeing the couple being all happy.

    Well, even if she isn't there for you, we are in spirit!
  • I feel your pain. My mom has a new boyfriend, so my wedding plans are just of no importance compared to her new love life... The most excitement I got out of her was when she bought her MOB dress, and it was just because it gave her cleavage and she couldn't wait for him to see it... ugh. 

    I've just been telling myself that I'm marrying an amazing man, I have his love and support, and the love and support of so many people other than my mom.... I hope yours comes around. Maybe she'll be with you on the day of and realize just how special that moment is. Good luck!
