Wedding concept taken by ex friend

Before I start , I know there are no original ideas that exist in the world. In this context , I’m referring to an ex friend that I shared details of my winter wedding that we plan to have later this year..we were both planning on getting married this year, which at the time of our friendship was an exciting opportunity to share the experience and talk about respective plans.

 Ex friend and I stopped speaking because they said some insulting stuff to me that I refused to forgive because it showed true disdain for me as a person. So we haven’t spoken since she said what she said. It took me a few days to block her because I had some family matters to attend to regarding my dads health(he’s doing better now thank goodness), but before i blocked her I saw she announced she was changing her wedding to a winter wedding in the snow instead of the fall wedding she originally was having , and copied details down to the city I chose. I feel like a petulant child for being upset because my future marriage is more important than the wedding itself,but it just felt like a slap in the face because she expressed zero interest in a winter wedding until we stopped speaking. I’ve obviously blocked her now, and I promise I won’t be going back to lurk in any way, I’m just needing a vent.

    Interesting. If anything, I'd take it as a compliment? Imitation as the sincerest form of flattery and all that. Is there going to be much overlap in your guest list?

    Also, it might be about you, but it might also have zero to do with you. Or only a little bit. I know people who have moved up their weddings and changed locations because they wanted just to be married sooner; I know people who have moved back their weddings and changed locations to have more time to save money, or because their venue screwed up royally and double-booked them, etc. She may have had her own necessities for changing time and place, loved your ideas, and didn't have extra time to plan and come with "original" ideas.

    As an aside, "choosing cities" as part of a wedding theme/style is wild to me. I know people do it all the time with destination weddings, but I can't imagine not basing my wedding location either on where I live or where a lot of guests live (e.g. where I grew up). Anything else seems like far too big a hassle for everyone involved.

    To the bold exactly this.  I've attended a destination wedding and it was a lot of fun but it was also very expensive and DH and I would literally only do that for about 5 people and for that wedding it was going to require a major portion of their guests to travel regardless.
  • NSJS - Winter weddings are a lot more fun - in spring - during melt - when the daytime temps are closer to 45-50!  All the pictures with fewer red hands, cheeks, and shivers!

    Regardless of her motivations, keep moving along with your plans...  

    Also 100% with the PP when it comes to the location of the wedding - having it close to the majority of guests rather than destination even within one's state...
