Get this my FH's cousin got engaged 3-4 months after we booked our wedding. We find out last night that she decides to get married exactly 2 weeks before us! ( In PA no less) now all his family has to travel to PA for her wedding and then two weeks later to eastern LI for our wedding.( they are all coming from virginia) And now we have to travel to attend her wedding when we are going to have a lot of last minute things to do.I'm not sure if I am over reacting~ but I was floored!

Re: How Rude!

Send out your save the dates before hers!
That way if people have to choose which one to attend they will go to yours.
Shame on her.

Re: How Rude!

that ***** i am mad for you. thats being inconsiderate. i would say do what you need to for your wedding first, then try to make hers if you can not make it then she will have to understand!!! sounds harsh but she did not consider the fact that you had that date or time frame first

Re: How Rude!

I'm sorry you have to go throught his though

Maybe I'm in the minority, but I doubt she would do something like this to piss you off. I got engaged after my MOH and my wedding is 5 weeks earlier then hers. But I didn't do it to steal her thunder - I did it because a. the weekend seemed perfect for out of towners and b. I didn't want a long engagement. But I know she's upset that I did it that way - although I did ask her opinion when I was planning and she gave me the go ahead. Soooo...as rude as it seems - just take it with a grain of salt. Get your save the dates out early and this way the family knows about yours first.

Re: How Rude!

I dont think the date meas anything to them because when we found out that they were engaged, they were thinking about having it in august but now we find out that its 2 freaking weeks before us!

Is she an attention monger? If so, I would just be so put off at the new low she set....



Not really, but her mother is - at least thats what my FH says.

I know exactly how you feel! My roommate from college was talking to me about her and her boyfriend (it’ll be there 4 year anniversary in 2 weeks) and how she’s looking forward to getting married (they talk about it but aren’t officially engaged). Then she tells me, ‘oh I’d be soooo pissed off if Chris (her bf’s brother) proposes to Meghan (his girlfriend) before Andrew proposes to me since they’ve only been going out 2 years’.
This was somewhat an issue for me since my FI didn’t propose to me until our 8 year anniversary and there were a lot of other people going out half as long as us and they were getting engaged. And she knows we’re getting married on 9/8/07.
So then all of a sudden she comes out with ‘so Andrew and I decided we’re going to get married on 7/7/07 and have a Vegas-themed wedding.’ LIKE HELLLLLLOOOOOOOOOO. You’re pissed and complaining about them possibly getting engaged before you and you’re just going to go and get married 2 months before me?! So basically I haven’t spoken to her since then A because we’re both very busy with our jobs and B because I don’t want to totally blow up at her since they’re not even engaged and booked anywhere.
But I totally feel your ^&*%!^%&$(*@(**!!!! I mean, your day—all of our days—are going to be special in their own right and we shouldn’t compare our event to others, but when someone blatantly does that with no regard of anyone else knowing FULL WELL that you have already made those plans, I have no tolerance for that!


WOW thats crazy... so you see what i mean LOL
