Ok spill what's up a problem shared and all that

Nothing really. Or nothing significant enough to mention! Just feel like crying most of the time the last couple of days! Ridiculous!

Nope right with you on that one. I'm sick of people bringing stupid questions and problems to me just because I'm the bride If I then ask them something they ignore me until they are ready if ever to come back to me

I know what you mean! Apparently I need to phone my grandmother because she wanted to know what time my aunty should go and pick up my cousin who is only attending the evening reception, she asked my sister, my sister told her, but apparently she can't understand why it would be that time (what is so hard to understand about an evening do starting at 8pm?!) and I need to phone her to 'explain'!??!?!

And my mum phoned me earlier all upset because we had planned to just have OH and I do the receiving line - at the advice of the toastmaster, who said that is what most people do as it takes twice as long to have the parents there too, but she was really upset and felt that we were trying to make a point that we have paid for the reception so they have no right to receive guests with us?!?!?! ARGH that thought had not crossed my mind (they have paid for everything apart from the reception) I was literally going on the advice of the toastmaster about times and I didn't think it would upset anyone!!!!!

I am also sick of people not getting back to you quickly - I know this is a bit bridezilla but my wedding is THIS SATURDAY - surely I should be near the top of the priority list just for this week?!?!?!?!

Also relatives have started asking what we want for a gift as there are not many 'big things' left on the gift list - well maybe if you wanted to get us something you could have looked at the list earlier than 3 days before the wedding and there would have been plenty of 'big things' for you to buy - don't get me wrong I am SO grateful people want to give us gifts but that was why we made a gift list so people didn't need to ask us what we wanted! Everything we wanted was on that list, if you are annoyed that there isn't anything 'big enough' left then buy a few 'small' things?!?! or we would be grateful and happy for any small thing, we deliberately put lots of cheap things on there for people to have options and not feel like they have to buy us expensive things! we were trying to think of people but now apparently we have done the wrong thing by not having enough expensive things on there! AAARRRGGFGHHHH! :rotfl:

I just posted a slightly 'argh!' status on FB, my sister asked what was wrong and I splurged out all the things I am worrying about and the things I have to do....and she sent back a long message going through each thing and basically explaining how it would be ok and someone else can do it I blubbed a bit when I saw her message but do actually feel better now! MAID OF HONOUR TO THE RESCUE!

Oh that's great glad she helped

CBM just rang she has to have her gallbladder removed next Wednesday! :eek: She should be ok for the wedding but it's going to be close

Wow...that was a catch up... seems everybody is having a crazy time.

I have been pampered at the spa all day spent way too much money but if I can't do it for my wedding day when can I do it for? Felt amazing and so relaxed.

Then email from photographers...apparently since our list of photos is so long...they think its ok to start before the wedding...fair enough for people who are not me the bride..or the bridesmaids but is it not obvious that I would not want my picture taking with everyone before???? They had put loads of time and effort into sorting it so everything will work...so feel guilty but had a panic and had to basically lose some of the pictures I wanted...not their fault...just not enough time...but all will be ok!

Woke up in the middle of last night worried the registrar wouldn't turn up since we've not heard from them. So texted fiancee to ask her to email them and sort...they confirmed they are still coming lol.

My brain keeps racing like that everynight...

Best Woman upset me by sending an email saying she had no idea she had a list of jobs on the day and was working in the morning-that she would have to see what she could sort. She just thought she was following OH around for support...all sorted now but worried there will be an awkwardness on the day...oh well...

I am happy really...I get married on Monday! It will be amazing...my family will all be there! Doing special mum and sister things this weekend...and left the favours on purpose to do then...

I just want it to be Monday...and sunny would be a bonus!

Quick Question.....

My MiL has just text to say she is off next week and ask if there is anything she can do to help, as much as I tempted to say that it's all fine it's the second time she has asked and I feel like it would be nice to give her something but no idea what!

Anyone got any good suggestions?

Fetching and carrying? Picking things up/dropping things off? Any DIY stuff like folding things or anything?

This is the problem.....she doesn't drive and has arthritis in her hands so anything fiddly is out too....makes it a little difficult. I might just have to say it's covered!
