I Had a Meltdown last night

We had our rehearsal/rehearsal dinner last night. It was nothing big. just went to a local restaurant after rehearsal. There are only 2 people in the BP, so 6 of us for dinner.
Anyway, dinner was great. we had a lot of fun and it was very relaxing after all this wedding planning. After dinner, we were all outside talking. And all of a sudden, I am getting thrown under the bus about these extravagent things, and how I was demanding everything. Meanwhile I never even said/asked about/demanded any of it. It was my MOH who was putting words into my mouth. And instead of anyone defending me, everyone else jumped on board. I lost it. Standing right there on the sidewalk, I just started yelling about how I never ever said any of that. It went on for like 5 minutes and unfortunately was directed at my brother. I felt awful afterward, like I had ruined a really good evening.
Vent over.

They should not have brought anything up with you after having such a nice night anyway.

Re: I Had a Meltdown last night

I have to tell you: unfortunately, I have realized (through this entire wedding planning process) that weddings bring out the best and the worst in the people around you. For me, it has mostly brought out the worst. One of my BMs is a girl that I have known for almost my ENTIRE life: since I am 2 years old! She is pregnant and has been having contractions since early on (she is due the day after my wedding)...I totally understand the need for her to have rest. BUT, not only didn't she show up at my bridal shower, but she didn't even call me to ask how it went OR send a card or anything!!! And, when I was on Facebook, I saw pictures of her days after my shower at a birthday party...what happened to 'rest'? I know that she won't make it to my wedding but I am just so hurt about her lack of being here for me through this process. Don't even get me started about my family...from the beginning they were getting on my about being 'extravagant'...hello...have I asked you for ANYTHING???
I am sorry that this is so long...I guess I needed to vent! Just remember...this day is ALL about YOU and what you want! Don't let anyone make you feel otherwise!!! For some reason, some people don't like seeing other people happy...which is awful!

Yep, I'm being told I'm a brat too.

The funny thing is I've really never been this way my whole life, and it's my wedding, are we supposed to get a teeny tiny bit selfish? We only get to do this once.

Try not to let it get you down. I have had breakdowns like this too, only for me they were all about my shower, and my sister ect...

I agree with the poster above..it's so sad the way a wedding can bring out the worst in people. In one second you can feel like you have a great group of supportive friends and the next wammy!

Just remember, your wedding does not have to make anyone happy but you and FH.

It wasn't right of everyone else to talk about it (weather it's true or not) at your rehersal dinner.
