2 Days Worth of Wedding Catastrophies

[auchlisa]

Well to start off I find out that my MH is pissed off at my FH and we get into it. It was all over whether or not he has been to Iraq or not. We have proof that he has and she wants to believe someone she dont even like. I told her that i would show her proof that he has like his orders. Then decided that all of his plaques, medals, and awards that r in our house is proof enough. And i dont have to prove it to anyone. Then I found out that my stepmoms gma died yesterday therefore they have to make the choice of going to her gma's funeral or to my wedding. So i told them that it was more important for her to be there.(but that dont make me feel any better that my dad wont be able to there.) One of the bridesmaids and groomsmens shirts got sent to the wrong address and didnt get mailed back out till yesterday. Then to top it all off i found out that someone else is planning on getting married at the same time same place in the park so if i want to too i have to make sure that i am there to setup before they r because it is a gazebo in the park and it is first come first serve. So then i decide to go to bed forget about it all and deal with it in the morning. First thing i decided to do is call my best friend and see how that goes. Well i called her and came to the conclusion in order not to ruin Corey's day that it would be best for her not to stand up with us if she is going to be pissy all day. Then i proceeded to tell her that her husband which is the best man needs to get his shirt so that i know what to get to match him for when i find someone to replace her and she tells me that he said if she isnt being in it neither is he. OMG. I cant take this anymore. I knew we should have just eloped.
Sorry everything is so jumbled up im really frustrated right now.
Thanks for listening

Sorry to hear about you probs Lisa. I really hope that all works out for you. Question, how far do your dad and step mom live from you? My reason for asking, why is your dad going to her gma's funeral instead of your wedding. I understand her wanting to go, but he is your dad, he should be at your wedding. Sorry, I hope it doesn't seem like I am jumping on his case. I was just curious.

As for your MOH, it sounds like you are better off w out her. She doesn't sound like she is being very nice, and if she can't believe that your FH was in IRaq, that is her prob. And you are right, you don't have to justify or prove it to anyone.

Wow, that really sucks...I am so sorry!! personally, if yout bf is gonna be like that then let her and her husband do what they gotta do...you don't need the negativity...I know it sucks, but someone else would probably be thrilled to have that position. As for the situation with your dad and stepmom...well, why can't she go to the funeral and he come to your wedding, that way she canbe there for her family and he can be there for his. JMO. I hope that things look up for you soon!!!! Plus, if the wedding is in 9 days...isn't that along time to wait to hold a funeral!!!!!

[countrygirl]

Good point. 9 days is a while!!

[CindySue]

Good point. 9 days is a while!! Thats what i was going to say, unless of course they have to travel a great distance to be there.

I agree too that it sounds like your better off without the MoH............

Good Luck!

**** Lisa, I'm sorry you're dealing with all this! Tell little miss don't believe that you don't give a **** wether she believes that your FH went to Iraq and risked life and limb so that her ungrateful arse could remain safe and secure...if she's that trifling you don't need a friend like that...By the way tell him THANK YOU from me! I was military, dad was military and I have the utmost respect for fellow soldiers!

As for the park get up early or camp out, I got a tent and a propane stove...when's the day? :bbmrgreen: Seriously, I wish you luck with that, are both weddings at the same time? Maybe you could work something out! I CROSS MY FINGERS FOR YA!

I'm trying to cover all the posts I missed while I was out getting HITCHED! Take care and hollar if you need me, anything for a fellow cowgirl!

Well i think i have everything worked out now. My dad is still unable to come because they live in OK and us in IL. The funeral is also today in IL but they cant afford to take over a week off work and stay for the wedding but thats ok Im just going to have my stepdad walk me down the isle. As for the MOH and BM we replaced them and for the park we decided on another spot in the park. All has turned out so far so good. Thankyou everyone for your words of understanding and ur advise.

Good to know that all is working out for you Lisa. My step father is walking me down too, but that is for other reasons. I hope that all stays stress free for you from this point on.
