I've been a lurker on the boards for the past year, and have gotten a lot of great advice from the wonderful brides on here. Until recently I hadn't had a true reason to post to this board, but I just HAD to share! I'm about four weeks out from my wedding that has been in the works for 16 months. FI and I have known a girl since our college years who I would describe as a "mutual friend" of our friends, a social friend who we see at parties or group gatherings, but we have never spent any real time with her or gotten together one-on-one. She does have close relationships with some members of our bridal party and is a very... boisterous and crazy person, but we've all just kind of laughed it off always and said, "that's SO her."
So, when we sent our save-the-dates last summer, she posted on my wall: "Word on the street is that your save the dates went out last week! Unless mine got lost somewhere in the mail, I'm assuming you forgot to send it... in which case, tell the caterer to plan for one more, and the bartender to plan for plus five, because I'm going to crash that wedding so hard!" ...And then posted a video to the song "Friends In Low Places."
Well, eventually I laughed that off, but today she posted on my wall yet again, this time tagging a number of friends (some invited to the wedding, some not): "River raft trip up north with the whole gang sometime? Post wedding that I am not invited to, of course." and follow-ups including, "I'll be serving drinks in mason jars on our rafts too, take THAT, wedding!"
I just can't even deal with the RUDE way some people deal with weddings, joking or not! I'm not overly bothered by it, because I know she's the one that looks foolish... but did anyone else have something like this happen to you?
"I finally realized that I didn't want to live in world that you weren't a part of. And that was hard to admit to myself, and not just because it ends in a preposition."
