On your My Wedding link above, go to My Account and scroll down. You'll see a box underneath your Chat Avatar which you can write stuff in. You may have to refresh your screen to get it to show up on chat links. HTH!

You can't change your saying until you reach 1000 posts though. I believe.

Ladies, are any of you tired of planning? Please tell me I'm not the only one.
I am I am...
okay now riddle me this my lovely Nov brides...how many lame reasons are you getting for No responses...I understand that you can not make it-but do not write just NO on the card (at least say congrats) and do not actually tell people the reason you are not coming (like I could not get a date)

I have never heard that reason before - could not get a date! Come on! Some people have been writing best wishes, sorry we cannot attend. Only one has given us a reason and it's because they are expecting twins a week after the wedding. Totally understandable!

A few have written reasons for saying no and a few have not. We're still missing about 30 responses so we'll see what happens. My rsvp date is Sunday.

No offense but if I were a BM and a bride handed me a day of timeline I would laugh out loud! I would in my head think she was a bridezilla. If your mom wants one made up for her - just give it to her. I'd just tell your BM's what time you need them ready and where to be! That's all. I think some things get out of hand - like a timeline Sorry - just my opinion.
I've had several family members call us up and tell us how beautiful our invite is and then say 'Just wanted to let you know we will be there.'...they still better send in the RSVP card! If they don't I will call them up after the deadline and make them feel dumb about not sending it back! I am busy - please don't call in your RSVP...MAIL IT!
I am getting very stressed and tired of all the planning...I just want the day to be here already! I sort of feel like I need to quit my job to finish up all the last minute planning.
FH just surprised me though and told me he called up our TA and extended our honeymoon by 2 nights! I'm so happy he did this....so now we're there 12 nights instead of 10...I can't even wait!

Can you imagine. Plus the person knows other people who will be there. My boss who is slightly 'off' anyway actually sent back an RSVP that just had a zero..and made no mention after about it either. what can you do.

Re: OFFICIAL November 06 thread
I really want to cry I have been working my Invites every free second for the last 3 Weeks on - I haven't gone outside for last 3 weekends' and my invites are still not out. I wanted to do the pocket fold invites, because I loved the way they looked and the paper was on sale, So I decided to do them But I can't believe how long they are taking - keep running into stupid little problems with sizing n stuff...running out of this and that - & today postage was .87 not .63 gotta go get more stamps ...Grrrrr. I guess I should have planned better but time just goes by so fast, and thought I would have has more he Leaving Fri for Vegas for Batchelorette weekend - so I have to finish them before i go & manage to pack.....Stress, Stress, Stress!!! They were supposed to be out last week........

Re: OFFICIAL November 06 thread
I'm just really upset at the girls I work with... they're all older than me, and I felt like I would have to invite everyone if I invited a few. I used to be good friends with a couple of them, and I talk to all of them. They ALL came to my engagement party in THE BRONX last year, but they all said no to my shower last month in Garden City, and I'm getting RSVP'S of No from them for my Bayville wedding. They didn't even SAY anything to me when they got my invitation! It's like they're not even acknowedging it happened! It's so b!tchy, I don't get it. I'm so nice to everyone I work with. All the MEN I work with came up to me that they and their GF's/wives loved the invites - and are either telling me that they're coming or can't make it for some GOOD reason, but these secretaries here (including one I used to be good friends with) aren't even talking to me about it, and just sending in their 'no!'. The way they've been acting, I expected it. If I didn't send give them Save-the-Date's already, I probably wouldn't have sent (WASTED) an invite on all of them since they probably all knew they weren't coming anyway. This doesn't feel good.......

Re: OFFICIAL November 06 thread
I am loving every minute of the planning so far. I hope that I enjoy it right up to the very day of the wedding! But I have the best bridal party who has been there for me with everything that I needed and has not questioned or disagreed with anything. My mom and his mom are letting FH and I make all the decisions and not bothering us about any of our choices. FH is great! He is involved with the planning and we have agreed on everything so far. The only bump in the road was inviting his friend with a guest. His friend was dating a girl for a little over 3 years and her and I became very good friends, and they just broke up about 3 months ago, so FH said we have to invite him with a guest, however I did not want him to just bring anyone (he is not dating anyone yet) and make my friend (his ex) feel uncomfortable. But we invited him with a guest and hopefully he will do the right thing. If he was dating someone I would not care if he brought her, but I don't want him to just bring anyone just to have a date. But he is not really that kind of guy, so that is why I was ok with the decision in the end. But other than that, everything has been wonderful!!!

See I personally would be happy if I were you b/c I'm praying for some No's! And my coworkers are the people I'd want them from Honestly try not to let this upset you too much. Maybe they are all broke and can't afford to give you a nice enough wedding gift. Who knows? This is supposed to be a happy time for you...don't let this bring you down!
