I am a Bridezilla and my confession is....

Hehe. I'm a rugby fan and our wedding is during rugby world cup, so if my face is tripping me, we lost the game the day before.

Our wedding is 31st July for a reason! It's not in the football season, and there won't be a World Cup or Euro's on at that time (for future anniversaries). The worst we could clash with is a pre season friendly, and he could cope with missing that. (although had it happend, I'm pretty sure there would've been a radio/tv on somewhere to get the score!) The things we do!

Know what you mean, I've already been told that supposedly my wedding clashes with some football match. Got more moaned at though as its in cricket season and my Oh and therefore most of his mates, including our Bestmen play for our local cricket team. In fact one of our Bestmen is their captain and are now moaning that they have to miss a game.

My name is MrsD and I'm a bridezilla because....

I can't find the right balloons!! First lot were too purple, second lot were too red (and shiney), third lot are the perfect colour but were described as 'pearlised' when they are in fact 'metallic'. :rotfl: Noone else is actually going to care if they aren't perfect!!

Oh LEJC
I'm just catching up on this and I'm in floods of tears at your post. What a dreadful thing to happen but your dad got his wish (like all dads wish) to walk his beautiful daughter down the aisle (or where ever you got married) I bet he was very proud as am sure you are of him & your mum. Be strong and have some virtual teary hugs from me xxx

OH AJ thats not a bridezilla moment...thats totally normal in the situation you are in....I cant advise you what to do...you have to do whats right for you and the family...but I know exactly what you are feeling...it happened to me...
my mum went into hospital the week before having suffered a heart attack...we made the heartbreaking decision to carry on without her there but involved her as much as we could with final preparations etc and lots of messages on the day...there were tears of joy and sadness...and we did have in hindsight a very beautiful and moving day...
everything happens for a reason...and whilst I was all for cancelling again with hindsight Im glad we didnt...my dad died suddenly and unexpectedly the next day.....


My mum made a recovery and is still very much with us...but it goes to show that fate sometimes deals you a difficult hand when you least expect it.

Sending you lots of hugs at your difficult time...

Moving away from sad confessions which are legitimate and not Brideillay at all

To this nugget of madness:

My MOH has just split up with her partner (again). Every couple of years she decides to break up with him, then a few months later they get back together. All very well but is he coming to the wedding? Is he not coming to the wedding? I was assuming her 2 year old son would be able to sit with his daddy and now I have to find someone else to sit him with, in case this is the time they don't get back together. She says she's confused and doesn't know.

make your effin mind up so I can do my seating plan!!!

I'm EVIL.

My OH's parents live in Cyprus. Their house is about ten miles (max) from where the explosion on Monday was. I knew about the explosion early on because (entirely coincidentally) my MOH's parents are out there too and MOH had told me first thing (she's on holiday there). OH's parents are currently on their holibobs, and we're going out next week to "cat sit" aka have a cheap holiday.

I'm also getting my engagement ring out there - I've been offered the choice between grandma's and great-grandma's rings if either of them fit/are to my taste etc.

Once I'd found out that MOH and her family were all OK (except for having no power), my first thought was that my lovely engagement rings may be squished under a flattened house. Or that we're going to spend our entire fortnight arranging builders and glazers and everything.

I did have to kick myself rather hard once I'd found out that people had died. And even harder when I discovered that the only damage to the house was one cracked pane of glass in the french doors.

But I want my engagement ring!!!!!

*goes and hides in the naughty corner for being so evil and not thinking about others*

I am a Bridezilla and my confession is.... i am annoyed that my bridal party numbers won't be even!

We had originally planned for three bridesmaids and three groomsmen, but now, there is no way that i could feel comfortable having one of my "friends" as my bridesmaid. Thankfully, as the wedding is 2 years from now, we hadn't asked anyone to be involved yet so we don't have to have that awkward conversation!

I've been friends with this girl for about 5 years now. As soon as we might each other, we became really good friends as we had so much in common and were so similar. I have been with her through a lot of difficult times (relationship separation, moving out, new house, dating, etc) and have always been supportive of her. Even when i was studying at uni and had exams the next morning, i have dropped everything to be with her when she was struggling.

Recently, we've kinda grown apart which i think is kinda because we both work full time and social lives can take a back seat from time to time. So anyway, last year when my "step" gran passed away, i was really cut up over it and her comment was "oh well, that's too bad. anyway, how does this make up look". I was horrified by her response and told her so the following week and let her know how much it upset me that not only was she not there for me at this difficult time, but didnt seem to even care.

Last week i was rushed into hospital and was kept in for the week while they did tests and then eventually emergency surgery. I've now been out and recovering at home for a week. Not once has she come to see me. She has text me twice to see how i was, but the main point of the text was moaning about her ex. I've not heard from her in over a week after she told me she'd come visit last Sunday. I feel so let down by her! I just really had to get that off my chest there.
