lol Its just funny that last week they were complaining about BTB on their NW board but yet now here they are on the '08 boards. It doesnt matter to me I just think thats hypoctitical of them. At least we're entertaining them!



this is so funny!

let's notice that all of the 'year' boards are under the title Wedding Chat. They are free for any and all brides (current or former).

'Our' board specifically states under newlyweds, that it's For Newlyweds Only.

There's even a disclaimer stuck to the top of the page:

Brides-to-be ---- please read before posting!

The newlyweds would love to answer your questions, but if you have a wedding related question please post it on the Brides Helping Brides board. The newlyweds monitor that board and will respond to you. You may try placing the words 'Ask a Newlywed' in the subject. This board 'For Newlyweds Only' is just that - for newlyweds. It's kind of their haven to communicate with other newlyweds. Thank you for your understanding and support!

Please don't burn bridges with former brides. We're the ones constantly helping and answering questions. So, there's a little drama here and there.. it's ENTERTAINING! But telling us that we 'don't belong' could cause more trouble than I'm sure you're looking for.



So what would happen if we crashed your 'newlyweds only' board? Surely the world as we know it would cease to exist




Thanks for posting the explanation Hayley!

As she pointed out, you are all more than welcomed to post anything you like on the 07 board -- that is what it is there for.

The For Newlyweds Only board was created to give the MARRIED girls a place to go when they want to chat about things that are Not Wedding Related. Which is why its not under the heading of Wedding Chat.

And as for the world as you know it ceasing to exist ... if you girls continue along this path, you're going to find that the 07ers may end up going on strike and they'll stop answering your questions.

Vendor recommendations from someone who's only booked a Vendor but not actually seen them in action aren't really worth a hill of beans.



Well honestly, I don't take kindly to threats...and I know a lot of other 08ers don't either...so if you want to go on a strike, feel free...honestly, you'd only be really screwing with the 09ers who are innocent bystanders...most of us 08ers have all of our vendors booked anyway...nice try

Hayley-come back to NW....they will understand one day

We come over to 08 to help you, answer questions...some to try and help fan the flames.
We get aggitated when you post on NW b/c its always a wedding question and like I said the last time this went on-not ALL the NWs want to talk about weddings. So we will go to BHB, 08, 09 to see if we can help being that we have been there.

The 06ers were a wealth of knowledge to us...and we hope we can be the same for you. But if you dont want us coming over to help....we wont! But be sure when you post on BHB or NW we wont answer.

The NW board is like a right of passage-its hard to explain but that is how you will feel once youare married and someone says.....im wearing diamond white and my shoes are white-should I dye them-we all but we answer the best that we can...you will too when its all over.

Good Luck with your weddings and may the force be with you



Ugggh, coming over to help and coming over to encourage and perpetuate drama are two completely different things the last time I checked

It would definitely be a long shot to call what you ladies were doing on the drama thread 'helping' don't you think?

Its not a threat.

It happened to the 07ers.

The 06ers got fed up with someone over something ... and stopped coming to the boards and responding to threads.

It wasn't an organized thing, I don't think .... it just slowly happened.

And it definitely affected the brides who got married later on in our year.

ITA Caroline .... and 07 was even more DEAD in November.

The November and December 07ers ended up having to come over to the 08ers to get some feedback because everyone was gone!!!!!!!!!!

It's sad that it happened that way, but I don't even think it's necessary to bring that up in this situation and to threaten us with the same outcome...the 08ers appreciate your help, but we don't appreciate you guys coming to perpetuate drama...I personally haven't been bothered by it so far, i'm a drama w hore like I said before but I know a lot of other ladies are really annoyed...

um yea you are right, BUT the general term 'posting on our board' not necessarily in terms of THAT thread was used-hence why I responded that way.
We get involved in drama no matter waht board-like I said-once you are there and see you will feel the same. I didnt understand it before I got married and now I do. Sometimes I just want to BS with the girl and not talk about placecards...and some days I want to talk about place cards.

And just so you know-i do actually comeover here and scour the boards and see if there is any advice I can offer other then drama

We dont need chat boards to successfully plan our weddings. People had beautiful weddings before LIW so I think we could survive.

not for nothing but that thread was waaaay into the drama before we came over. at the point we arrived it was already out of hand and we were trying to get some giggles out of it. when i first posted to it--i was sincere and not being 'drama' -- later when i viewed it--it was nutso. so i, along with others, posted funny pics cause it was just ridicilious at that point.

And some of us were trying to offer opinions and advice from 'the other side' of things, having been in the situations you girls are facing and realizing what's worth requesting of your friends and family and what isn't worth it, when its all said and done.
