So we got married this past weekend! The wedding day was smooth. I was never nervous, I was cool and calm all day. However, I wanted to kill my MOH and inlaws after the fact.
MOH made the focus herself, not me. All she cared about was the party and getting drunk and herself. She brought extensions to our bridal hair appointment. I warned her that those take a long time and they may not be able to do them as part of her style. I asked her to get a normal, formal style and she refused, wanting her hair done the way SHE wanted. The salon did, however reluctantly put them in caused us to run late and then my MOH snapped at the salon staff and owner about scheduling her last. Might I add that I paid $500 for my attendants to get their hair and makeup done? I ended up having to leave her there so I could get to church on time and then had to send my sister to pick her up.
She got so drunk on the bus between church and reception, that she completely botched her toast. She waited until the day of the wedding to even write it and then was too drunk to read it. Then disappeared the entire remainder of the ceremony to get even more drunk with her boyfriend.
As for my in-laws. During dinner, my SIL's husband walked into the reception with a large, shopping bag from Wendy's. He freaking left during dinner and got Wendy's for her son, our usher and herself and husband. $64 a head is what our reception ended up being and they brought Wendy's in for food. DH was furious, my dad and our groomsman were furious. SIL said. "well everything has onions in it'. Not the salad, cake rolls or roasted pork... Even my boss, her date and some school friends commented on it.
Anyways, I don't know how I did it in the moment, but I managed to ignore everyone who ticked me off and was so focused on visiting with guests and enjoying ourselves. The whole day went so quickly! I'm just thankful that they day went as well as I could have wished for myself and for the black sheep in the family, thankful they live our of town!
