I forgot to add the catering and production (dj, bartenders) was all for free. The only thing they paid for was the liquor, which they made my fiance pick up and drop off the extras the next day. Without thank yous.

This is geared toward a wedding guest. She’s actually a friend of the groom and it happened at my wedding in August. This so called friend took a lot of pictures of us. Her dad as well. He was there the whole night and got in the way. Then she posted a xanga entry with a review of my wedding and uploaded pictures of our wedding without our wedding. She then reviewed/rated/judged out wedding. She said the cocktail hour made up for the greasy fish and the DJ could have been better. Meanwhile every guest I spoke with commented on how good the coctail hour and reception food was. I mean, even the pickiest of eaters said our food was so good. I can’t even look at her in the face anymore.

wow, just wow. did your husband ever say anything to her?

i was at a wedding where the bestman revealed some funny/gross things about the groom that made the guests feel kind of uncomfortable. there was that awkward silence where everyone was thinking, “omg, did he just say that?”

Tow things

One, I was the Maid of Honor in a wedding and the bride opened gifts at a little brunch the next day. I was mortified as she opened every card and gift and announced who it was from and if it was money–HOW MUCH! “Oh, Kari, you guys gave us $$$! How nice!” I don’t care how nice it was, I was appalled.

Two, one of my very good friends had an expensive wedding with 500-ish guests. Gifts came from all over and included a Tiffany bowl, etc. She didn’t send a single thank you. Not to the long-distance senders who wondered if their gifts even made it. Not to the big spenders and not to the fmaily members. I love her dearly and this is one of the parts of friendship, I guess! I even encouraged her multiple times to get started, just to do thank you picture generic invites, etc. Nothing.
