Can I pick them all? For the most part, I dind't have problems with my family although my mother had an occasional "I want it this way" powertrip. But she got slapped in her place really fast when those came up. My dad didn't want involved with anything. He just wanted to write a check to cover his guetss and be done with it. Sean's parents were pretty easy to deal with. They didn't care as long as they could invite their friends and have an open bar. Sean's sisters and groomsmen were God sends. My MOH was a big help too.
But, I had one bridesmaid who decided in March that she should filp out on my because I wasn't being a good enough friend to her because I wasn't calling her every day, spending too much time with Sean, and spending too much time planning my wedding. And, I only emailed her on her birthday. So I told her to go pound salt. I didn't have time for a prima donna at my wedding that wasn't me. But the bridesmaid, my friend Erin, that I replaced her with was fabulous.
Then there were my two cousins who were bm's. I'll cut the one some slack because she is only 16. But the older one is 31 and knew better. She is the one that threw the temper tantrum about her kids not being allowed at my adult only wedding. So she went crying to her mom and grandmaa and everyone who would listen about what a horrible person that I was. That I kept it a secret. And how I made her waste $150 (not my fault she quit her job because those 2 days a week were too stressful). So all of her whining and my shall we say take no prisoners attitude caused my mother's entire family to boycott the wedding if I wouldn't let my cousin's two brats be at the reception. She is also the one who woulnd't particiapte in anything inclduing going to the salon, never showed or even told my mil she wasn't coming to the rehearsal dinner. (My mil paid for 4 meals between my 2 cousins, the one's husband and the other's mother that went to waste.) They also left about half way through the pictures because they didn't want to waste anymore of their Saturday. Good riddance. I didn't want to look at their sour faces anymore.

My 2nd MOH (FSIL)...she did nothing but B*tch over the dresses, took her FOREVER to tell me what size she needed, then I had to order it and take it to her...my FH finally got pissed and told her to straighten up and do what needed to be done or she could wear her Sunday best and hand out bubbles!
That and she was supposed to handle my showers (HA) never once did she mention them...and when we did have one (thanks to my FMIL) she b*tched because I asked her to take pictures and write down names and gifts for the thank you cards....when the wedding gets mentioned she changes the subject or just completely ignores the topic.

My BM have been giving me the biggest headache. I have had issues with getting them to try on dresses so they can order them, which they still have not all done yet. They have also said they don't have the money right now and all that mess even when I told them the price of the dress in January and asked them if it was alright.

Mine was a draw between The Bride (Me), my mom, Jason, and bridal party. In all actuality it really should be that my biggest problem is ME (the Bride!)...I just want to please everyone and I get torn in 2 different directions. I am lucky because my mom and I have very similar tastes so if she picks something out I usually love it but if I happen to not like it I feel bad and will do it just to make her happy. I know I have issues...huge ones! Then my loving future husband...he has one of those "everything will work out" type of personalities and it drives me crazy. I am having a complete melt down on the inside and he is frolicking in the fields smelling daisies...UGH! I want him to stress like me...I think that is why we are so perfect for each other he mellows out my craziness...LOL!
I did have bridal party problems early on but that worked out for the best in the end.

Well, try not to stress about what I want, Amber. Don't try to please me, because it's your way or the highway as far as I'm concerned. I'm doing all of this because I want it to be perfect for you, not perfect for me. Please try to be more selfish!!

OMG Amber.....I was about to say my biggest problem was myself!!!! Brian is the same way.....his attitude is throw it into the "bucket" and it will come out ok. He also didnt understand why I was stressed. I could give him a detailed list of what was going wrong and he would be like "so?" I just wanted to choke him sometimes!!!!!!

Eric says "It'll all work out I promise" and at the time I want to hang him by the hairs on his chinny chin chin but then after the "stress dies down" he was right..thank God he has enough sense to not say I told you so! He just smiles and hugs me.

I had the biggest problem with my MOH. I originally picked a dress out of the Sears catalogue. It would cost $175 or so and I really liked it. So she proceded to tell me that my choice sucked (excuse me, my wedding!!!) and that her big boobs would fall out of it! (Huh? the dress has straps dumby!!) Anyhow so I sent the first dress I ordered back and said ok, you don't like it, we'll go to the Bridal store and buy a dress. (The other BM b1tched too!! So there were 2 out of 3 hating the dress.) So we went to the store and I felt so bad because the dresses were 200-250 dollars. My two BMs picked a 200 dollar dress which I gave them half of the money for! Then my MOH comes along and picks a 235 dollar dress because again the other one her boobs would fall out of! By this time I'm thinking, man, what CAN she wear? Her boobs must fall out at the most inconvienant times!!! So I gave her half the money for her dress too. Ok so I've done a nice deed by giving her money for her dress but my tastes are too expensive for her and she continues to be a b1tch. Everything I pick out she puts down. So I tell her, where whatever shoes you want because I don't care. (which I didn't) So time goes on and one day I get an email from her and she's telling me I'm bridezilla (hair and make up is too expensive, RB shirt and tie is too expensive,my brother needed a new suit, blah blah blah. You make 80 grand a year, deal with it!!) and I want too much out of them. (I even nixed the designer FG dress and she still spent $150 on a dress that I DIDN'T ask for!!) Then she quit our wedding party taking with her my FG, RB, and MC. (niece, nephew and brother) I was so hurt by her actions, I layed on the floor and cried until I made myself sick! It was horriable. Then when she finally apologizes to me, she thinks I still want her to be my MOH. Well she failed on both the showers she gave me, Matt and I had to decorate for my second one by ourselves because she was driving all over Alberta with her stupid mom who came from California. Instead of saying Mom! I've got obligations, she just told her to come on down!! I was pissed!! I decorated for my own **** shower. My MOH DID NOTHING!! (there are many more examples but we could be here all day if I keep up on the things that WOMAN did to hurt me while planning my wedding!! I wish she HAD boycotted it! At least I would have real friends beside me for the whole thing) PS. these are the people who promised us a wedding present and never gave it to us! Blah!!!
So moral of the story, don't have a bridal party and have a destination wedding, because it'll save you way more hassle in the end!!

I guess that I would have to say that my biggest problem has been my MOH, which you guys have all heard about. We just cannot seem to communicate effectivelt about my wedidng or anything that goes along with. I would also have to say my sister and brother, who live in CO and are supposed to send me money and measurements for their attire, which I have still not received..and finally myself, because I give everybody too much slack when I need to transform into Bridezilla Queen of B*TCHES and just make people get there **** done. Oh, and Amber, yeah Joel is enjoying those daisies as well!!!
