Resolved Question: wedding planning, what others can help with? 9 Mar 2010, 6:19 pm
Hi All,I’m getting married in June and still in the planning process. I have been offered help, and I will take everyone up on that offer the day of with setting up and break down, but I’m having some trouble letting other help with planning. One day my sister, (a bridesmaid) tells me that her and my dad have been talking and making plans for the wedding, which I was unaware of. I asked what they had been planning and she told me they booked two bartenders and some other things, but I was also working on that too. I don’t mind help but they didn’t even tell me that was what they were working on. They also said they don’t want me to come set things up in the morning of the wedding which i was planning on to make sure things are as I planned. (even if that mean leaving once i see things are going well, but they dont even want me to do that) I don’t mind help, but help and taking something over are two different things. I’m trying to figure out thing they can help with or do without me but it’s hard to let things go. its my wedding and I’d like things to be the way I pictured them, not how someone envisions their wedding. Brides…. what are some things friends or family helped with or did for you to make things easier but didn’t change your idea of what you wanted?

Resolved Question: I fell out with my maid of honor/best friend over wedding plans or is it more? Please give your advice.? 7 Mar 2010, 6:53 pm
My wedding is coming up in the next few months. To make a very long story short, the wedding will be out of the country. So far everyone has booked their trip to go accept for the maid of honor who has had the cash to do so. Anyway, in the beginning she searched banquet halls with me but nothing since. Every event that she was suppose to attend somehow she didn’t make it. Then when I would figure out my plans by talking to other people, she’d sound the least bit interested in it. So about 2 weeks ago, I sent her a long email about how my feelings were hurt and the websites that I looked at of what a maid of honor should do and also how I was concerned that she has yet to pay her deposit for the wedding but has went on 1 trip already and trying to book 2 more all before my wedding. Her response to me was “All you need to know is I will be there, there is nothing to do besides show up and if you are worried about your bachorlette party since you think I am incapable of being your maid of honor then have throw your own bachlorette party and let me worry about my finances, not you”. After she said that along with a host of other comments, I did not talk to her for about a week. I had responded back to her that since she felt I could throw my own party which had nothing to do with the subject and that she could be so heartless about something that was bothering she could have a good life. She took the comments and ran with it, removed me from her facebook page and from her yahoo instant messenger contact list. She called me a week later and apologized but my feelings were so hurt initially now I really don’t trust her anymore and has asked someone else to be my maid of honor. Why did this happen? Was I wrong?P.S. – When I say help, I am simply referring to asking her to look over the invitation before I send it out, attend a bridal fashion show with me that she said she would and looking at some group activities.
