April 2011 Brides

Mocha-  Great BM's dress and color!  I think tangerine rocks!  Have you tried www.thetiebar.com for any ties?  They have a huge variety, and they're usually cheap too.

 

Tenny-  Ugh.  People suck sometimes.  If you really don't care to have her there, maybe you can gently say that you were hurt by her letter saying that your friendship wasn't the same anymore, but that you re-evaluated things and that you feel the same.  Not all friends are in your life for a lifetime.  It's like that saying that people are in your life for a reason, season, or lifetime.  Maybe her season has come and gone.....and it's okay for you to gently tell her you'd prefer she not come if that's how you feel.  I'd hate for you to feel tension on your wedding day she's there with her 3 friends.  Try to let this drama roll off of your back.

Thank you Greys and Lisa!  Lisa my FI says the same thing that is is more becuase of jealousy that I'm getting married and as you said she is still single.

Mocha - you can try K&G fashions for the tie if there is one by you.   The have lots of colors we got and orange for your GM for $9.99! Hope that helps

Wow Tenny - reading your post actually made me angry that someone could be that selfish!  And I just don't understand how someone in your life could be so heartless when you are mourning the loss of your mother...  I agree with the others - if you feel that she is not worth having in your life as a friend, then you should let her know that she hurt you, and you'd prefer to not have her at your wedding

Tenny - I am heartfully sorry that you have to deal with "friends" like that. I would go with telling her that since she informed you of her inability to attend you have made alternate arrangements. Maybe she has changed and realized how important it is to be at your wedding, but she shouldn't expect that you were just on stand by hoping that she would show up. Let her know that your wedding has limitations and you would love to have her attend but just can't accommodate any more people.

 

And thanks for the suggestion, but I'm not familiar with that store. Do they have a website?

 

Erin - My colors are actually tangerine and fuchsia, but I was worried about an orange tie with a black suit so hopefully I can find something with both tangerine and fuchsia.

 

No worries, still lots of time to find ties!

 

BTW - One of my BMs has confirmed that since she is preggers there's no way she can afford the trip. So, I am down to my Angelic MoH and maidzilla sister. Of course, my sister is so concerned about it being equal but I told her no worries, 2 GM with MoH and sister can have 1 GM and ring bearer. I don't want to ask someone else so late.

Mocha - That makes sense now.  I was thinking that I'd remember the orange and black and didn't know how I missed it, but totally missed what you were talking about apparently.  That one flew right over my head!

 

Today I came home to MORE packages!!  I got my luggage tags from the lady on Etsy, and my OOT bags that I bought from cheaptotes.com.  Now I just need to get a few more things for my OOT bags, the iron on paper for the design for the OOT bags, and my OOT bags will be ready for completion!

Mocha- I'm on the hunt for fuschia & orange ties also, let me know if you find anything and I'll do the same! Tenny- so sorry about your friend, I wouldn't definitely not want her at my wedding after the things she said to you! I hope you figure everything out. You deserve to have nothing but supportive people at your wedding!

Thanks greysgirl - I actually sent that one to FI earlier today to see if he approved. I found a picture too.
