things I wish people would stop telling me....
1) ' You have to give Jordan Almonds! They are for luck!!'
if I was lucky I would have won the lottery and sent Jordan Almonds around the world. Those things are expensive; and seriously who eats them anyway?
2) ' You have to invite every female that is invited to the wedding to your shower!'
seriously, no thanks. Why should I expect people to spend more money on us?
3) 'The cocktail hour is the most important part of the reception.'
I would like to think just being there is relevant.
4) 'You should wear something old, something new BLAH BLAH BLAH'
I don't care about tradition, I am not superstitious and what YOU did has nothing to do with me.
5) 'Your mom should not wear white on your wedding day!!'
My wedding, I can do whatever I want and she can wear whatever she wants. Now, if it was FMIL I would throw down like WWE and get all pissy!![]()
6) 'You should get a band instead of a DJ. People can here DJ's everyday on the radio.'
FH and I do not like bands at all. This is one thing we have agreed on. We absolutely love our DJ and MC.
7) 'You shouldn't be so hard on your cousins, their lives do not revolve around your wedding.'
I never asked them to, I asked them to help me do things smoothly and not make me wait, beg or plead for them to do what they promised to do.
8) 'Balloons are not really appropriate for a reception, it isn't like a swete 16.'
( with fists up ) I LOVE BALLOONS DAMMIT!! I want them behind my dais@#$%^&*&^%$ Why can't I have balloons?![]()
9) 'East meets Mid West equals language barriers and keg stands'
lmao![]()
seriously, someone said this to me
10)'That's cheap'
I have heard this a few times from various family members regarding different items. I just have to shake my head.
