What do you wish you could havePhotobooth
What was something you have that ur FI wanted and you didnt?Nothing major comes to mind. We are having things such as arabic music because i'm marrying him, that i wouldn't have had otherwise. He, on the other hand didn't want bubbles...so i we aren't having them. I suppose that counts

What has stressed you out most abt the wedding: My family. My parents hate each other and can get really obnoxious. I hope that they can manage to behave themselves for two days.

What was the easiest decision you made: The ceremony venue, I didn't even think any other options.

What do you wish you could have Booze, FI's family is super religious so we are forgoing alcohol at the reception.

What was something you have that ur FI wanted and you didnt? FI and GM's camo vests. UGH, I am not a fan of them but it's what he wanted.

kelleyku05 · September 2010

What has stressed you out most abt the wedding: My FI's family, mostly his brother and cousins. They are all from the country (not that there is anything wrong with that) and they are complaining about everything we're doing for our wedding.

What was the easiest decision you made: Probably my location. I fell in love with Loose Mansion after walking through the front door.

What do you wish you could have: Our original honeymoon. I used our honeymoon money for the downpayment on our house, so we had to "downsize" our plans a little

What was something you have that ur FI wanted and you didnt?: Nothing, yet....I've made most of the decisions and asked for his opinion here and there. He hasn't been too interested in planning anything.

What has stressed you out most abt the wedding

Not hearing back from guest by the RSVP deadline (our guest count is about 100 short of our estimate)

What was the easiest decision you made

Colors - I knew I wanted eggplant purple, orange and silver

What do you wish you could have

Nothing really comes to mind...

What was something you have that ur FI wanted and you didnt?
Well so far we've agreed on everything but the one thing he wanted that I didn't is Sliders as an App - I'm thinking of adding them as a surprise.

What has stressed you out most aboutt the wedding Paying for it, hands down. Money has been the most stressful thing - everything else is cake.

What was the easiest decision you made The venue (Club 1000). We love it!

What do you wish you could have A sit down dinner. Oh well

What was something you have that ur FI wanted and you didnt? Um... I can't think of anything in particular. There were some design-related things that I wasn't super into but he was, as far as paper products. I love our invites but not too fond of the monogram, but it was his choice so I let him go with it.

engutshall · September 2010

What has stressed you out most abt the wedding: Music decisions, but this could be because I'm in the throws of the process.
What was the easiest decision you made: Saying yes to the proposal of course and then setting the date.
What do you wish you could have: More flowers and my grandparents (on my dad's side) at the wedding (they both passed away).
What was something you have that ur FI wanted and you didnt? Nothing that I can think of

SEWF · September 2010

What has stressed you out most abt the wedding: Paying for it. I've had some help from my mom, and we're keeping it small, but I'll be eating PB&J for months!
What was the easiest decision you made: The dress. Third one I tried on, as I looked in the mirror, I thought, 'This is it'.
What do you wish you could have: The Elder's play at the reception!
What was something you have that ur FI wanted and you didnt?: He wanted to elope! I shot that idea down quickly, though, because my family has to be there. So I compromised, and now he's walking down the aisle to AC/DC.

Blondnette · September 2010

What has stressed you out most abt the weddingNot really stressed but I'm not happy to say the least. It's our BM dresses. They were suppose to be in this week, still aren't. And they told me last week that they were. And before that it was suppose to be the end of August. Called today and they're going to call me back with an exact date. Still haven't called me back. Thinking of putting my Mom on them. She's more mean than I am. lol I'm more short on the phone.
What was the easiest decision you madeOur Venue hands down. I knew I wanted Hawthorne House before I was even engaged. haha
What do you wish you could haveA Photobooth!
What was something you have that ur FI wanted and you didnt?Elope! lol But he understands how important this is to me.

MLC613 · September 2010

What has stressed you out most abt the weddingJust the money probably and the family drama. Everything is so expensive and I keep asking myslef, "is it worth it!?!" Our families have both kept coming up with these crazy, off the wall suggestions for our wedding and when we turn them down/go with something else it causes a fight.

What was the easiest decision you madeColors--everything else I'm pretty sure I've thought "what if i would have done this" or "what if i would have had it here"

What do you wish you could haveNothing big---just a couple little things! All in all, i'm happy with everything we have picked this far.

What was something you have that ur FI wanted and you didnt?He wanted to elope... and partly still does...

What has stressed you out most abt the wedding
Family, of course. My dad's side in particular was very wishy-washy about their attendance, which was very stressful and made me invite fewer of my friends. It's all good though. Everyone I really wanted there was present.

What was the easiest decision you made

We made a lot of decisions right after the proposal. Like, the next day. Those were: the date, our wedding party, the colors, and the food. All of our decisions were very easy once we (I) did the research to find what we wanted.

What do you wish you could have

More time at the reception! Seriously, girls- the day goes by so fast. Our 5 hour reception felt like it was over in about 30 minutes.

What was something you have that ur FI wanted and you didnt?
I let him chose a lot of the songs for the reception. Many of them were not my first choice, but that's ok because he chose from a list that I had come up with, so it's not like I didn't like them. We were basically on the same page the entire way through.

meek1mccoy · September 2010

What has stressed you out most abt the wedding?

whether my family is going to be supportive and show up or not. I have 4 sisters I am not sure about. My brother has been really supportive and his wife is standing up with me.

What was the easiest decision you made?

to make my dress so I could have what I wanted without all the expense

What do you wish you could have?

I wanted to elope. oh well. It also would be great to have both sets of my grandparents, but all four of them are in heaven.

What was something you have that ur FI wanted and you didnt?
The wedding with everyone included. Its hard to keep it small...he knows lots of people

LisaC0617 · September 2010

What has stressed you out most abt the wedding: so far the flowers/centerpiece decorations! i just don't care anymore, and it makes it hard to pick a florist when you don't care about flowers. So fed up!
What was the easiest decision you made: haha saying yes
What do you wish you could have: my mom's word on how much they are going to contribute and when. She has been super flaky about contributing (she told me she is going to buy my dress...three months later she still hasn't) and I just wish she would stick to her word. I'm worried she's going to fall through and we're going to have issues w/the honeymoon/debt because of her.
What was something you have that ur FI wanted and you didnt?There's been a lot of little things I was surprised he cared about -- the one that still makes me laugh is he got mad when I told him boutonnieres were dumb.

cebw29 · September 2010

What has stressed you out most abt the wedding? I still have quite a bit to do, but figuring out the budget was tough. I don't know how all of you did it, but we started with figuring out a good estimate of how many people were coming in order to even narrow down what places we could have our reception at. Ended up with The Clubhouse on Baltimore, though. I think the next stress will be flowers.

What was the easiest decision you made? Of course saying "Yes!", but I'll go with picking out my bridesmaids.

What do you wish you could have? Plated dinner and a complete open bar. I also wish I had more connections for discounts! Haha

What was something you have that ur FI wanted and you didnt? He wants a smaller wedding party, but I just couldn't cut any of my girls out! He also would rather be spending this money we're saving up for a house instead. Oh, well!

[QUOTE]so she went to a mutual friend's shower 2 weeks ago without a gift, not even a card, and was telling people of the gift she intended to buy, but never did and probably never will.

why talk about a gift <strong>at all</strong>?
