CONFESSIONS/VENT WEDNESDAY

jodyk23 · May 2010

Is there anything you need to get off your chest? Feel free!

Ugh...just the same vent as Sunday: buyer pulling out of my house sale and the 16 year screwing around on his telephone who wrecked my brand new car.

I have spent more time at work this week doing WR stuff than work stuff.

My bachelorette party sucked. It started out bad, because of car trouble. Then it just proceeded to get worse. It was poorly planned, and everyone just ended up fighting. My bridesmaids really have no idea how to be a bridesmaid. This is my wedding, and now this is how I'm going to remember it the rest of my life. Wondering how I'm going to get this bad taste out of my mouth before my wedding. But apparently it was all my fault. Sad Bride.

Emily: if your girls told you it was all your fault, they are evil.

WR: I'm pissed about this for the PURE HYPOCRACY of it. As most of you know, my best friend (I'm using that term loosly now) is getting married 2 weeks after me. I seriously want to punch her in the face. Like straight up. I truly don't even want to hang out with her for my B-party OR my wedding. It's a huge list of crazy that culminated in these final two things that made me just straight up never want to talk to her again. First, Other Bride (OB) has been INSISTANT upon having a "spa weekend" for her B-party. I tried to explain that it's way too expensive where she wants to do it. She didn't care. She threw a fit until I agreed to plan a spa weekend at the resort SHE chose. Then, my MOH e-mailed her telling her that all the girls would need to chip in $12 TOTAL for my B-party. She threw a fit and said that we really needed to keep things "economical" for everyone. WTF? Seriously? You're making all of us spend HUNDREDS on your SPA F-ING WEEKEND, but you won't pay $12 for my party? B#tch. THEN, I sent out an e-mail tell the girls how much hair and make-up cost for my wedding ($90 for both or $65 for one). She complained that it was too expensive, and I told her that if she couldn't afford it she didn't need to do it. But, she decided to get both done anyway. Then she sends me an e-mail for her wedding day make-up and hair. $90 for hair, $110 for make-up, $200 for both. Really??? REALLY???? Suck it.

Alright, I'm done. Thanks for letting me get that off my chest. I feel a little better now.

PS -- OB e-mailed me today changing her mind (10 days before the wedding). Now she only wants to get her hair done because "$90 is just too expensive to me."

Okay, at first I thought you were just being bitchy but holy crap, your friend needs a serious reality check. I say you buy her a dictionary as a wedding gift, highlight hypocrite and tape a picture of her face next to it. I'd go postal on her.

jodyk23 · May 2010

Mel & Emily - T&P for both of you. Your BMs suck and need to step it up!

My vent - I just received my bill from the caterer this week. Mind you that when I met with them last year, I told them my budget (for the entire wedding) was $10k. They said their minimum was $7,500 and we would work it out. Their bill was for $9,700. WTF? They made it sound like I could afford them and now there is no way! I have like 10 more guests than I was thinking. How does 10 people create a difference of $2,200?? I tried calling them yesterday and will again today. This needs to be resolved ASAP before I have a meltdown!

Julz629 · May 2010

$110 for make up? HELL. NO.

Kelki · May 2010

Mel, your friend sounds like a real fruit loop. I totally feel for you! $110 for make-up is outrageous!

I kind of feel like I'm being bitchy too. I mean generally, I wouldn't care. It's just how hypocritical she's being. Oh $90 for your wedding is TOO expensive, but $200 for mine is totally reasonable. Oh $12 is not economical for your b-party, but you HAVE to spend hundreds on my spa weekend b-party.

Vent: My MIL rearranged our house while we were on our honeymoon.

I'm talking moving things from shelves and refolding towels that were in the closet.

That's totally weird. Right? Not only would it be irritating not being able to find anything...but I'd be all weirded out that she went thru all my stuff.

Kelki · May 2010

My Confession: I don't want to hang out with FI's friends when we are in MI. I want to hang out with my sister and my girlfriends. It's selfish. I'm a jerk.

Booger- TOTALLY weird. Did you say anything to her? What would you even say?

Mel- I have a friend just like yours! I was a BM for her like 3 years ago and she had us throw her 3 bachelorette parties, pay like 200 each for her shower (on top of making the food ourselves) and all kinds of other expensive stuff....now that its my turn she's moaning over $50. My MOH told her if she doesn't like it stay home. Why do weddings always bring the crazy?

boogerbearoriginal · May 2010

Kelki - H actually talked to her briefly about it, basically said that it wasn't a good thing for her to rearrange our house. She apologized but it still bothers me that she went through all of our stuff. Apparently she waited until after the wedding to show me that she's a bit nutty.

klreese0213 · May 2010

booger- my mom did that once while pet-sitting. I kinda got REALLY mad about it. since then, all she does now is throw a few loads of wash in when need be. lol i felt bad for yelling, but it needed to be said! (i'm talking not only rearranging stuff, reoranizing cupboards AND hanging pictures SHE bought while we were gone!) hahahaha oh moms.. they're grrrrrreat! Congrats on your wedding btw

my vent- i'm sub-contracted through an insurance company, basically self employed, get paid monthly. my check is 2 weeks late!! what is wrong with people!!! ive told them before how important it is for my check to be on time, apparently they dont care

blackberryaddict · May 2010

I hate lying through my teeth when asked if I'm excited about the wedding.. "I'm SOO excited, it's right around the corner! We cannot wait!"

When in reality, I just can't f*ing wait until everything's over with.

alarthame · May 2010

WR: I'm really pissed lately about people saying they are going to do sth on a certain day and then they don't. Then, when I email them about it, they don't respond for a few days. Then, when they do, they give another forward date. GRRRR!!! Don't say things you can't commit to. Be straight with me cause you suck bad at lying.

queenfm85 · May 2010

NWR: I HATEEEEE my job. I had a meltdown yesterday on my lunchbreak that started with yelling and quickly turned to sobbing. I think I'm just super stressed about a LOT of things

WR: The catering company I'm using wants me to use THEIR preferred vendors for linens BUT their chair covers are like 2.50 w/o a sash. Seems expensive to me compared to what you ladies posted before. She said I'm welcome to use another company but I'm a dummy and don't know how many of what or what size tables and stuff I need. GOD there are SO many little details that go into planning a wedding that no one ever talks about! bah!

Mel-THAT IS INSANE!!!! I would go CRAZY!

Erin-Welcome to the family right? haha

lmixter · May 2010

Booger- That is really funny that you say that. My FSIL was just telling me a story about how my FMIL always rearranges things in their house and kid's rooms because "it just makes more sense", even if myFSIL was only gone for less then an hour. Hopefully this won't be a repeat performance for you.

Vent: Poor FI just doesn't understand why I need to know if his parents are planning on inviting his cousins and THEIR CHILDREN, since they only originally only told us adults. Now I hear I people saying "so and so" is coming with their son.... I don't even know who these people are! With the stress of work and wedding planning he better call them quick......
