One of my best friends relayed this story to me on Friday. She attended a wedding of a girl we both know - she's much closer to her; I wasn't invited. She said that Julie seemed pretty agitated for most of the reception. She didn't go around and talk to her guests. She spent most of the time dancing or talking to her bridesmaids. At the end of the night, my friend and her boyfriend were leaving and went up to Julie to say goodbye. She was talking to her MOH, so my friend waited politely until she was done. Julie then turned to my friend and said, "Are we goodbying? Because I'm in goodbying mode."
My friend's boyfriend says we should cut Julie some slack - it was a long day, she had a lot going on and he doesn't think she meant it rudely.
My friend and I think it was extremely rude. My friend is actually so upset, she doesn't know if she wants to continue being friends with Julie. I just don't understand why should couldn't have been gracious to my friend and thanked her for coming.
Also, I had another friend that attended this wedding too. Both of my friends said it was one of the worst weddings they've been to. The bride was seemingly in a bad mood for most of the reception. She didn't seem to talk to any of her guests. And they didn't play any good music to dance to (Saturday night wedding in NY - people are going to expect to dance!). They said the wedding seemed to only reflect the groom and his very large Italian family - that Julie was seemingly "lost" in any kind of representation. Sad, right?
