Have you found...

That people around you are getting whacky? Since the planning of the wedding has begun people are strange. Wondering if maybe it's just me. Friends freaking out - family acting bizarre.

Do share if you are dealing with the same stuff.

Just my sis, she thinks everything I do is trying to find out when my shower is! It's not, I think she is just projecting because she is putting so much into it!

It's not a full moon, so it can't be that.
Maybe because of the summer solstice ?

Everyone has begun offering suggestions on how to do things.
HELLO - my wedding is four months away. Anyone who knows me knows that I have most everything done already.

My friend and I were just saying yesterday that something about weddings tend to bring out the worst in some people. Weird!

Re: Have you found...

My FMIL has gotten a little wierd - we have always gotten along really well and now she seems a little evasive and is separating herself. In the beginning she was all about helping out, but I think she expected us to have a firehouse wedding, like FHs brother, where she made or ordered all the food from various places. FH and I are having our reception at a RH so there isn't much to be done there.

I keep getting the feeling that she thinks we are being frivilous, which we are so not! We are paying for the wedding ourselves and are totally keeping a tiny budget. My FSIL said to me in the very beginning (with horror!!!) that her brother had spent $3,000 on his wedding, can you believe it???? To which I said 'OMG, that's incredible, how did he do it???' She thought $3,000 was a waste.

They live in Western NY in a town that just got a McDonalds, when FH was in high school the only jobs were at the local farm, I understand we are from different worlds but it gets difficult sometimes.

OMG I get the same exact feeling from my FMIL! We had a GREAT relationship until we got engaged, now she drives me nuts. To preserve my sanity, I will no longer discuss our plans with her. He can do it if he wants too

We're both 30 & have good jobs, but I get the feeling that she thinks we're stupid, we're 18 & we make $4 / hr or something. Oh & she's from PA, so she has NO clue about NY weddings either. Everything that we do in her opinion is too much, not right, a waste of $$, over the top and on & on & on...I can't wait until the wedding's over just so that things can get back to normal again!! We were great friends prior to our engagement!

Its definitly not you! I have learned throughout this process who are really my friends and who are not! I agree with the above poster, weddings bring out the worst in people but i just cant understand why if its supposed to be such a happy event!

I thought it was me but as the calls and RSVPs started coming in I realized that people are just whacked! I get requests and comments that are just off the wall. Like Is so and so invited and if they are I don't want to sit next to them.

Its just nutty
