You know, since she let me know her website and registry? Maybe allll her facebook friends will buy her something from her registry.

This new trend of posting wedding websites to facebook page really grinds my gears.

    Also, her wedding website def says exactly where and when her wedding is...lol. I really kind of hope she gets an uninvited guest or two. I know it's an expensive venue.

    Nah, I'd be more passive-aggressive and just comment, 'OMFG, so exciting!! Can't wait to get my invite! I started making travel plans already!' and see what she says. 
    OMG you should totally do this.  "If you're sharing, must mean we're all invited! Can't wait!"

    On a related note, I saw the following Facebook post yesterday: "[My daughter's] Sweet 16 is Friday night. If u got an invite or were invited on here plz RSVP ASAP so I order enough food!" The comments that follow all say things like "Hmm, I guess the post office must've lost mine!" One person said "That darn post office! Let's go down there and complain!" and she goes "Sorry, I have no pull at the post office, can't help you there!" How awkward.

    Story AND video?

    Come on... You aren't celebrities. Knock that shit off.
    I almost wrote something on the landing page of our site about how we were including info/tools that one might prefer to find online, and nothing that one might prefer to hear from real people ("such as sassy bios from the wedding party"). However, FI made me avoid the snark - which is good, because while I believe that people who care to hear our proposal story or learn how I know my MOH should make a point of having a conversation with me or get to know MOH, there was no reason to make anyone else who has/had a genuine reason for putting that stuff on their website feel bad.

    But I agree, their web content seems like overkill. A few people probably would care to see that stuff, but I'm sure not everyone who can see this on her Facebook cares.
    I did put bios of how I know the wedding party on the site... but we mostly used that to tell our WP how awesome and wonderful they are. ("Ink and X met in high school and instantly bonded. X always keeps Ink grounded and helps her through the worst times yada yada") They all got a huge kick out of it.

    WHY do people do this? If I genuinely don't know whether or not I'm invited it makes me feel awkward and sad, and when I know I'm not I just get annoyed.
