What is the one thing you said you were not going to do but did anyway or are doing?

1.get stamps from zazzle.com for the invites but I did it anyway....lol

 

2. monogram...just got those on monday lol

 

3. do a newsletter...well i am doing one lol

1. i said i wasnt going to spend a fortune on my dress...that didnt happen

 

2. i said i didnt care so much about pics and wouldnt obsess on them...well i love my pics and show to everyone who comes over

 

3. i told myself i would let go of how my family acted and not be so controlling and a bridezilla and not let their antics bug me, but it didnt happen

 

4. i wouldnt care if certain people couldnt make it, but it did bother me and in the long run i think hurt our relationship.

1) Ditto on the dress - spent way more than I ever planned. Don't regret it, though.

 

2) Ditto on the family drama. I was shocked that it happened. Remarkably, I was able to not let it bother me but my poor husband was mortified well into the honeymoon.

 

3) Be stressed the days leading up to the wedding. Gosh, it was so tough to have fun in Cabo until the wedding. People were annoying me left and right with all of their repetitive questions (oh, and they were previously answered in numerous emails, websites, invitations, and personal conversations) and I was trying to please everyone (am I spending enough time with my mom vs. my dad, etc.). Plus, I had a virus so that didn't help.

Well, I am sure I will be able to write almost exactly what Natasha did AFTER I get married, but for now ...

 

1) I said I wouldn't spend that much on a dress. OOPS!

 

2) I said I wouldn't let the rest of the planning become too big of a deal. Double OOPS!

 

3) I said I'd try to get work done and not spend as much time of the forum this week. Well, we all see how that's going ...

Umm I said I was going to keep it simple,, yeah so far that's not working..

As others have mentioned, I said that I wasn't going to care if certain people couldn't come. But of course I do, especially if I know that they can afford to come.

 

I also didn't want to become obsessed with this wedding and focus on the marriage. I'm still trying to focus on the marriage, but it's been difficult not obsessing over little details of the wedding.

Natasha, did you get sick from drinking water or eating fresh vegetables in Mexico? Or do you think you caught your virus before going?

DITTO...DITTO...DITTO..

 

..about holding it against my friends who are not going to be able to attend the wedding functions (like my bachelorette party), when I said I wasn't going to care.

 

Whats up with that? Why am I so pissed? I must be PMSing.

There seems to be a theme here!

 

1. I thought it was rediculous to spend a ton on a dress, but I did anyway!

2. I swore I would keep it simple & not become obsessed...so not happening.

3. I promised myself I would never let myself act like a bridezilla...I've had a few of those moments that I've previously confessed.
