LIW Profiles

LIW Profiles

Somewhat new to the boards and I have a question. I've noticed that some people in their profiles list their specific vendors and other just write 'booked' or 'someone I love'.
Just wondering the people who dont get specific if there is a reason not to that I am not thinking about.

Re: LIW Profiles

either people don't want their identity known or they are concerned that people will try to cancel their vendors or cause problems with their vendors.

Just for privacy purposes. Probably will post all my vendors after the event.

Re: LIW Profiles

since this site is public and many are trying to have a small and private affair.. sometimes its best to keep it private...

Re: LIW Profiles

I HAD everything listed and wondered the same thing...then I realized that there are some crazy people out there who WOULD try to mess with things for me. I feel more comfertable having it private because you never know who is looking...Its not a SECRET... but I dont want it to be so redily available...if that makes sense!

Re: LIW Profiles

Like the ladies have said, mostly for privacy reasons. I think after the wedding in my review, I will reveal everyone.

Re: LIW Profiles

Hmm.. this thread is starting to make me think. I've always had everything out there, but I might change that. You girls bring up great points. I wish this site was private :(

Do people really do that? It seems crazy, because I just can't understand what someone would get from that!

I read on another post where a Bride was date twins with another bride and she wanted the RH that the other bride had--the bride ended up calling the RH pretending to be the bride that already had the RH booked requesting to CANCEL the hall! Only because she wanted the RH.
So you have to beware of the info you divulge on here because at the end of the day we really don't KNOW each other and some of us are just giving too much info to strangers.

Re: LIW Profiles

I was a lurker for many months and saw a lot of users getting profiles deleted, and a lot of fiascos with brides going at it w cancelling each other's vendors and stuff. I was hestitant to become an active poster.

This is why I don't have any pictures or real info on mine. FWIW, my wedding date may not even be Oct. 8th. I have seen LIW brides on here with totally fake profiles and dates like Tuesday evening weddings, so you have to wonder...

You just have to be cautious because you don't know what Bridezillas are out there these days who are out to get you because of something you wrote that rubbed them off the wrong way..
