  • Quite right Lexxi - go a bit mad! I hate idea stealers!

    Sparkle, I would send a text saying you have had to declare numbers to the restaurant and as they haven't replied then they aren't coming! Don't stress over the little people!

    I am being BZ over the gift list. It is open and people have purchased but got my bro texting why isn't it open? He had the wrong shop! Now he is texting that the list isn't open, when it is. . . I have just been on and checked! Can he not call the helpline number himself. . .

    It feels like everyone becomes brain dead when you invite them to your wedding and you have to make all decisions for them. . .

  • Am I out of order to strike them off the list if they don't get back to me?!?

    Nope, that's what rsvp's are - if one chooses not to reply to one either way then you're not on the guest list!

    Ooh I had one like this! Texted me to ask if the hotel I'd recommended was far from the venue (I'd put in the invite it was £5 in a taxi so not far at all), if there were any rooms available at the hotel (why not check the website or give them a ring), how easy it was to get to the venue by train or coach (I don't know, why don't you check the train / coach website!), and if the train station was far from the venue (it says it's not far on the chuffin website if you'd just use your eyes and have a look!).

    Do guests really think we have nothing better to do than to organise their personalised travel iteniary or explain how to use a gift list?!?

    I told my nephew that I need to know by friday if they're coming to the wedding - no reply by then and that's that, they're not coming. I don't feel it's very dignified to scrabble around after people if they can't be arsed to sort themselves out in the first place!

    I want my BM to get new glasses as her current ones don't go with her dress and she looks weird without them... but the ones I want her to get are Chanel ones so I'm trying to think of the best way of saying, 'I'm afraid you're going to have to spend £200-odd to look nice on my wedding day!'.

    Hehe, that'd be too cruel Mre Moore! My Mum has stepped in and has given her a 40% off voucher for Boots opticians since she'll need some white/cream glasses for her wedding next year anyway so she'll just be getting them a few months earlier! I know it sounds really shallow but her dress is coral colour and she's wearing the same colour flower in her hair and it clashes dreadfully with her glasses as they are kind of yellowy and brown- they're nice, they just don't go! Even she admitted they looked awful!
    Overcome the notion that you must be ordinary. It robs you of the chance to be extraordinary!

    BZ moment begins.

    I want to blow our venue up. With managers still inside. And anyone else who thinks they can cash in on wedding trade without being prepared to do the leg work.

    BZ moment surpressed... Until next time.
    Bump due 22nd September
