With 24 days left till the wedding I feel like things are moving along quite nicely. Â Just a few more small details and I feel like I will be DONE with wedding planning. Â I might actually be a little sad about this. Â I mean I like all the DIY projects I’ve come across. Â What ever will I do? Â Eh, I’m sure I’ll find something because this is not actually what I am going to blog about today. 😉
My point above, which never formed was this, with 24 days left you really shouldn’t have much more then small things left to do. Â However, it seems several of my knottie friends are still having “guest” issues. Â From people who want to bring their teenaged kids, to groomsmen without flights or pants. Â Yes there are groomsmen, in weddings in the next month without plane tickets OR pants. Â Some still haven’t finalized if boyfriends/girlfriends are coming. Â (you know a rant is coming)
COME ON PEOPLE! Â Get your shit together! Â How hard is it to RVSP? Â I mean really, someone sends you an invitation and they include a nice little addressed stamped envelope. Â All you need to do is fill out the form, mind you for the ADDRESSED people only, and send it back by x date. Â By no way shape or form are weddings cheap. Â Actually add wedding or bridal to anything and watch the price list immediately go up.
I am completely baffled by the complete lack of respect or courteousness I’ve heard many knotties complain about.  It honestly makes me angry for them because while they are trying to plan a wedding they are having to deal with rude inconsiderate people.
Thankfully M and I had a pretty good idea of the people attending our wedding so we didn’t bother with RSVPs. Â We also chose to not include a wedding party since we both felt it was a lot to ask our friends to fly hundreds of miles for our wedding let alone make them feel as though they “must” be there because they were a bridesmaid/groomsmen. Â Now I understand this works for us but not everyone and that’s fine. Â Part of planning a wedding is figuring out what is and is not important. Â I feel as though some of the things we’ve done have definitely made our wedding planning much easier on us. Â And I like easy. Â 🙂
Point of today’s post, be courteous people be courteous. Â This should hopefully help to keep bridezilla in her cave.
