Can't even believe the crap I'm dealing with from people with 9 weeks to go...

1. See post about invitations. Inner nd Out envelopes? Frig you FMIL! Take the opinion you should have given me 6 months ago and shove it up your ***.

2. My brother calls me yesterday complaining about the tux prices, asking if I can find out what tux he's supposed to get so he can try to find it cheaper. UMMM, NO. You'f effing serious? I've been engaged for 2 years now, the fact that you had to rent a tux was not a surprise.

3. My MOH is ignoring everyone's phone calls whever they try to organize something. My shower, a group gift for me, the bachelorette party. ... Thanks MOH. Thank Goodness I have a BM who stepped up, I realy want to make HER MOH right now.

ETA: 3.5: My sister is already making seating arrangement requests. My invites are still in a box in FH's basement.

4. This is the real doozy. I already had to replace one BM because she got pregnant in JAnuary and is due to give birth 9 days before my wedding, so she won't even be 100% sure she's cming or not until like... that day. I'm not angry at her, but a little sad she might not be there since we've known each other since we were 5. So what does my other BM who I've known and been best friends with sine I was 15, who knows this whole situation, do 6 months before my wedding? Get's pregnant. On purpose. Thanks. So luckily the dres order hadn't gone out yet, we scrambled to change her dress order and everything was good.

My shower was this SUnday. She never RSVP's. FH had to hunt her down on FB. She said she wouldn't be making it because she is having a rought pregnancy and the MD said she can't make the drive from Shirley to Staten Island. Fine. o FH asked, well, then what about the wedding which is in BK, if you can't make the short shower at 3 or 4 months pregnant, how are you going to do the wedding at 6 or 7 months pregnant? WE need to know what you want to plan on doing. And she flipped out on him and said that we need to find out how to get her dress deposit back if we don't want her there.

She still hasn't called me to tell me she's sorry she couldn't make it, no text, no email, no gift, no nothing. NOTHING. Meanwhile, she's at the movies, out to dinner, taking her kid to the pool, and hanging out with other friends. How serious could your condition be??
Not even a card. Not EVEN a 'hey, hope your shower was beautiful, miss you, sorry I couldn't make it'.

Nothing.

Seriously?

My pseudo-MOH is also trying to plan a lunch before we leave for AC for the B-party and this pregnant BM won't respond to anyone's phone calls about that either. Meanwhile, I spoke to her 2 weeks ago and she was all 'I
'm so glad you called, he's how me and baby are doing and I miss you and I'll tty soon'

What am I supposed to think? What do I DO? I'm not caling her. I'm SO HURT right now!

Jamie, I am sorry you are dealing with this. If its any consolation, my ILs decide to say they don't like the wording of the invitation with only a week before its supposed to go into production, so I feel your pain. Like, you couldn't have said something when I asked you what you thought about the sample a year ago? Ugh!

All I can say about the BM drama is that people suck. My shower was this past weekend and there were like 20 out of 55 people who didn't come at at least 5 of those didn't even bother to RSVP, and these are all people that I am very close to. It hurts and all I can say is that I know better for next time. The rough part is that you don't want your wedding to be a learning experience but it sure shows you who in the end is there for you and who isn't.

Just try to breathe and remind yourself that in 9 weeks you are going to be married to the most wonderful man. And its going to be a great day....and for people who aren't there to support you, well, it's their loss!

I TOTALLY agree! It's sad, but weddings really can bring out the worst in people. Just try not to sweat it and remember that in the end, you'll have your FH and that's what really matters

I would say something to her once you've had a chance to cool down a bit about not even calling you to see how your shower went -- that's kind of rude in my opinion for any close friend not to do, especially if she's a BM!

jamie, first of all, FORGET the inner/outer whatever envelopes! get the invites OUT! That is so annoying to give opinions at this point (it happened to me too and i told everyone to shove it, basically). You can explain that it's too late and your priority is to get them out at this point and there is no time for changes and that's IT!!!


grrr i'm so annoyed for you,


as for the people who suck...I'm so sorry! Pregnancy is not an excuse to let basic etiquette fly out the window such as RSVPing for a shower. it takes two seconds. besides that, to give your FH attitude? not acceptable.
But how can you be sure she got pregnant on purpose? is she with someone?

I'm glad you have a bm that really stepped up...everyone's true colors really show!!!
