When do YOU put your foot down?

When do YOU put your foot down?

My meltdown occurred recently. Plus I was PMSing. Not a good combo.

Someone in my family wanted to buy lime green dresses for my JBMs (long story, I asked them to buy matching black dresses-makes life WAY easier)Nothing against lime green-but when your colors are wine and black-there is NO reason for someone to want to change your colors....

I literally went on about it for 2 days straight.

So, when did you have a meltdown and what happened?

Omg wth lime green dresses...eeks!! I can totally understand why you would be upset.

I had a breakdown over shoes. I had told my BM's to buy gold strappy sandals. So my cousin asked my mom what shoes to buy she didn't know. So instead of calling me and asking she ran out and bought gold closed shoes. I totally spassed out knocked a chair into the wall and everything and was just screaming all over the house. That has been the craziest moment for me so far. I was just mad because i had told her several time and i just don't understand why she didn't call me.

I actually told my brother in law that my wedding is more important than them having a baby But it was only because he was really bothering me!

I also yelled at my mom last week for her having her hair cut very short. I guess I meltdown a lot!

Ugh I never understood why people have to change the way you decide to plan your wedding! You were being nice enough by telling them to find something that matches and not demanding them to buy a $1,000 dress!

OMG I sooo want to post one of my meltdowns but I don't want any lurkers to find it Let me just say...

Re: When do YOU put your foot down?

Yeah I was trying not to say anything. I sent her a swatch of fabric and a nice note saying black is the undertone of the BM dresses and since I have 3 preg BMs they might have to wear black etc etc etc you get the drift.

LOL!! It was last weekend and it lasted for 4 days! I felt terrible afterwards.. it was about adding extra limo time, plus not having enough cardstock for my invites, which I ordered and its not here yet plus sending my envelopes to get printed and they still arent back yet (when it was supposed to take a week max) plus not having enough money to pay for this wedding ... hmmm maybe Im not over it yet

I'm not laughing at you or the situation. I just read the way you put it and it was funny.

So far I've only had one meltdown which was when FMIL announched she bought her dress and that she would send me a swatch so I could pick my color scheme around what SHE'S wearing!!! Still haven't gotten over that one.

But it's early yet so I expect many more meltdowns as we get closer

thankfully the only meltdown i have had has been b/c of financial stuff. its so much to do in a short amount of time, so i BUGGED out. other than that i've been surprisingly calm.. knock on wood!

When I went to a tux place and told them I wanted taupe colored suits for my wedding and the idiot salesman told me that tuxes were for weddings. I have him this death look and told him 'I don't care what you think is appropriate for weddings, I am the bride and I want taupe suits for MY wedding.'




FH was like 'whoa-bridezilla!'

I freaked out when FH's grandmother wanted to come BM dress shopping. Because she wanted to see FH's sister in the dress.
I started screaming to my mother that it doesn't matter what SIL looks like and how she'll see it at the wedding.

Yeah, it was a baaaad day lol.

Re: When do YOU put your foot down?

First of all, why did anyone want you to have lime green dresses for your Jr. BM's? That is just odd!
So far no meltdowns.......yet

Re: When do YOU put your foot down?

i kinda had one a little while back when one bm told me another bm was complaiing bout the 90 bucks for makeup ...first off i didnt ask her to use this person,it was optional ,she could do her own makeup for all i care....but what really frosts my cookies is this girl spends 400 on shoe s and 300 on sunglasses so its not a money thing and her dress was only 99 bucks

ok selfish bride rant over
