MY FMIL is here, and so is the drama!
The wedding planning has been smooth as silk, up until my FMIL came into town a few days ago!
Thank GOD she lives in Ohio and this is temporary!
Since her arrival 2 days ago, I have had to deal with the following:
1. The RD is now a breakfast (fine with me!), but will it most likely be the day b4 the wedding (guess she doesn’t want me there!) Like I won’t have a thousand other things to do the day before I get married!
2. My theme is fall. The MOH dresses will be burgundy and the flowers will be lovely fall colored roses (burnt oranges, deep red, etc). But I guess since I am not having a single pink flower, that’s not nice enough for her taste. UGH! (MYOB!! It’s my freakin’ wedding!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
3. I decided to add votive candles (in burgundy) in plain clear glass holders. But I guess since there are no “pretty” rhinestones or glitter on the holders, I got a “that’s not enough, you should get these and shows me a pastel colored rhinestone votive holder at Fortunoff yesterday. Yea, that will look great with my fall colors (vomit!)
4. My wedding day! I am getting married on a Sunday. And I guess in Ohio it’s not a day to get married on. She expressed that her sisters (FH’s aunts) said “SUNDAY????????!!!!!!! Why on a Sunday”
5. My dress. I have told her MANY times that I want to keep my dress a surprise. She knows about everything else. So what has she been doing since she got here? every few hours she asks me about my dress while winking.
6. Ties. We went shopping yesterday to look for ties for FH to wear at our wedding. I told her I want something simple, no stripes. So what does she do, every single flippin’ tie she picks out has STRIPES!
She’s leaving tomorrow night, I’m counting the hours!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And what’s sad is that I really do like her. We get along great – over the phone. I guess that’s how our relationship should be.
