Aww codemonkey, that's pants

Which seller did you use? Are they not like the pic at all? Maybe you could get a refund and choose something else? x

It wasn't something she said about him. It was kind of about me.

And what if after a few drinks she thinks she should repeat it at the wedding? I had to tell my bridesmaid (by text) that she couldn't behave like she did on my hen night, then a week later I found out her behaviour was even worse than id known about! I've no doubts she would have been a nightmare at the wedding

I may no longer be a Bridezilla, but now have turned into a housezilla!! Trying to buy our first home together is a nightmare!!

I am SO close to dumping one of my bridesmaids. Something she sent me in a text last night was SO inappropriate it's got me absolutely furious. I'm so easy going, it's difficult to anger me. I've known her for 17 years and she's never provoked this reaction in me. Part of me wants to let it blow over (I didn't reply to her text last night and she sent an apology about half an hour ago), but the other part of me wants to react. What makes me feel worse is that I know that if I told OH what the text said, he'd be even more furious with her!

Sorry, that won't make much sense to you lot without you knowing what the text said. I'm probably over-reacting...

Ah text messages! The bane of my life. How many times have I had or nearly had a row with OH2B or someone because you cannot suggest tone in a text or email!? Er, lots!!

Is it possible you have misinterpreted or misunderstood what your BM is saying, or trying to say? Could something she has written have been meant light-hearted and just come across badly?

I've just had an issue with one of my BMs because she said (by email) that she was unhappy with her dress being strapless and hoped it wasn't short too, because she would feel like a tart in it!

I was devastated because I had found 3 lovely LONG dresses in the sizes I needed, in Coast and was really happy with them. She was so negative about them, and I told her outright that she had upset me and no single dress would have kept all 3 of them perfectly happy. She phoned to apologise for being negative and we've sorted it now.

Anything emotive should never be dealt with via text or email! I've learnt that lesson the hard way. Hope you get it sorted, pockets! x

In other bridezilla news, my MIL2B has asked me for about the millionth time if my mum is going to wear a hat. The wedding is six months away and I've told her a million times that my mum isn't a hat person!

Oh dear that's really out of order and also a bit odd! :eek:

On the hat front, my MIL2B keeps asking me what sort of veil I will be having even though I've told her a million times that I am not wearing a veil! It's just not me at all! :mad: I don't know if she's trying to see if I'll change my mind of if she genuinely forgets she asked me already! :rotfl:

I am near bashing my mother with my wedding planning book as I still can't get it through to her that it's mine and the H2B's wedding, which is why WE want to organise it! Not because we hate her or don't like her ideas, but simple because it is our wedding, which we are really excited about and we want to make it ours!!

I'm a Bridezilla and my confession is....

I want a really lush reception in gorgeous shabby chic dusky pink with birdcages and roses, trailing vines and butterflies, candles and little cupcakes - all in a gorgeous converted barn or country house on a midsummers day.
Instead we are having the upstairs function room to a social club and decorating with balloons. I am trying very hard not to sulk and stamp my feet and feel sorry for myself.

I know what you mean! I would love to take over a country house for about four days, where all our guests could stay, and have the whole place to ourselves, but on our budget it ain't happening!!

There are things you can do though, for instance:
Go for a country walk. Grab as much ivy as possible to drape over things and wind round things, etc, making sure to remove all wildlife first
Check ebay, etsy etc for fabric butterflies and roses
