Last week was a hard one for me... One of my maid's of honor told me she could no longer be in my wedding (I am crushed) because of the cost of everything...
So my first question is.... What has caused you the most stress throughout your wedding planning process????

Re: ** QOTD: Monday, Sept. 13th **
I wanna say the only thing that has bought me close to tears and yelling has been talk about transportation for the WP and guests - esp. the OOT guests. Everytime a conversation starts involving this topic I just cover my ears and go 'LA LA LA LA LA LA LA' really loud so I don't hear what anyone has to say LOL. But, I think we have it all resolved now and it's so much a PITA topic for me anymore.
Close second was the favors until we sorted that all out.

For me, it was figuring out what to do about my niece and nephews. They are my WORLD, but at the same time I really want my siblings to have a blast and not be worrying about the kids all day. Deciding to have them not attend the reception was very difficult for us to make.

I would have to say that the most stresssful thing so far has definetly been the money that we are spending. We are paying for everything ourselves, so it is a little scary to think about all the money that is going towards our wedding. We even have to put our HM on hold because there will def. not be enough money in our budget to be able afford it . Another thing that is a little stressful is that my mother and I have had a rocky relationship for the last 10 years, At a time like this it would be nice to have my mom there to help me with all my wedding plans, and picking out dresses and so forth.

Guest list..... I LOOOVVVVEEEE our RH and really wouldn't change it but our guest list is getting up there in numbers and i am just afraid it's going to be a little tight.
FH's side has been really difficult in regard to the list - they cant get addresses for people, FFIL wants to invite all these people from his job (that neither FH or I even know), some of FH's friends like to drop off the face of the planet and we cant track them down for ANY info and now that FH is back to teaching talking to him is totally useless.
so yea - guestlist sucks

For me I would say there were a few things. One is definitely $$$. Trying to save and figure out how we are going to do this has been really hard and trying for both of us. Another one was my BM. One of my BM said she didn't want to pay for her dress, then when she agreed, she was giving me a hard time about picking the dresses, colors, fabric, length and so on. Till now I still don't know if she will be in the wedding :(

Money is such a HUGE STRESS for everyone. So at least we are not alone when we feel this way. Thank goodness for LIW and you girls. We WILL get through all this stress together!!

Re: ** QOTD: Monday, Sept. 13th **
FMIL and all her 'requests' which are more like demands!!! So now I've just started ignoring her and not caring about what she wants. Not even 24 hours after we were engaged she was talking all about herself, who's walking her down the aisle, what dress she is going to wear, the fact that she has to have dancing queen played at the wedding, which friends of hers that we have to invite to the wedding, how she wants us to go to her church at least once a year(bc she's lutheran and I'm Catholic).
I got soooo mad and still am, but now I barely talk to her and just ignore everything she says pretty much. I honestly don't care if she gets none of her requests for the wedding. It's not like she's paying a dime for anything nor has she offered me any help w/ anything!
Ok I feel better now

Finding the RH/Ceremony venue. Everything else feels like it's falling into place after that.... Oh wait, and the EParty my mom is throwing us, not that that is stressful, just collecting all the addresses for it!
