remember that bridesmaid???? a vent.

PhillyGal34 · September 2013

Ok the wedding is this weekend. As of last week she "claimed" that no one told her about the rehearsal so she isn't sure she can make it... same thing with her mom. Funny part is that we have several emails that mentioned it, where they responded that they were coming. Oh and the bride and groom sent out invites to everyone.

Now we are trying to figure out how everyone is going to get their cars from where we are getting ready to the resort because we are taking a limo. She doesn't understand why she needs a car at all and wants one of us to drive to NY to get her and bring her down so we don't have to move her car around... UMMMM NO! Apparently this pissed her off and she has now blocked everyone, including the bride and groom on fb and is not responding to any calls, emails, or texts.

In addition, the mom took her invite and put it in a new envelope and invited guests that the bride and groom were adamant about not inviting... for good reason. the bride and groom flew to their destination wedding where the uninvited guest told the bride and groom that he did not want them there and called the bride the C word... seriously. Apparently she was a C word for making him move out of their apartment... despite the fact that this guy was getting married! this bride is the least dramatic person I know and her family is the same way. I adore the groom but his friends and family are trash. So the uninvited guests called to RSVP that they could not make it and the bride was like "is this a joke??? you were not invited" and they said they got the invite... and they figured out how. The bride is going to go crazy on the MIL after the wedding about this.... I wish I could be there.

So yeah, the wedding is in three days, we have no idea if the BM is even still coming and I'm about to flip out on them all. the bride is bawling and a nervous wreck and the groom has no idea what to do. I cannot wait for this wedding to be over!!!! vent over

Is this real life? Kudos to all sane people involved for not losing their sh!t yet.

That poor bride. Poor you! Just try to make sure she enjoys her day, and that the day is about her and not the grooms family and friends. Ugh!

Kernel14 · September 2013

Wtf?? I can't believe an invite was resent to people. It sounds like the bm would be doing everyone a solid if she doesn't show up!

That's seriously like the scene in Girls Just Want to Have Fun, only crazy and not 80s funny. People are nuts.

unfortunately. I wanted to call the MIL SO badly but the bride asked me not to. I have this feeling that I'm going to go crazy on someone after a few drinks on saturday.

I am 33, a mother, a lawyer, a wife.... this is making me feel like I am 15 again. It is horrible. The saddest part is that the two key players are also both wives and over the age of 25 at least (one is in her 50's) They are clearly miserable people. I just don't want it ruining the bride's day.

the groom has tried to talk to them and it's getting worse. I told him that it is my job to make sure the bride is happy that day until she meets him at the end of the aisle and I'll do whatever it takes to make that happen. I apologized in advance if he doesn't like my methods but she comes first to me.

Kernel- I'm hoping she doesn't but we all know she will so that she can cause a scene. My guess is that they will be "running late" because the BM and MIL are not getting their hair and makeup done with us that morning and the BM is not staying at the bride's house like everyone else. So they are going to want to hold up the wedding or something. The bride already told them that the wedding only waits for one person. Her. not showing up would be too easy for all of us

Seriously, what a loon! Hopefully she just won't show and make things easier for both B&G.

I feel badly for the bride, since this shit won't likely stop after the wedding. The MIL and sister will always find a reason for drama.

Amerbutt81 · September 2013

I would not hold up that wedding for these bitches. Oh, you are 45 minutes late? Well, sit in the back of the church because the bride is already down the aisle.

It would actually be awesome if she came late, the wedding was started, and someone was there to cut this chick off and tell her she has to just sit in the back and watch now.

I told the bride it is a blessing that she is not coming the night before, to get hair and makeup, etc... we can have a totally drama free night and morning and get some BM pictures without her haha guaranteed those are her favorites!

I'll definitely keep you guys updated. I cannot put anything on fb since it could get back to her... although she has us blocked so how would she know???

NewQueen · September 2013

I can't wait to hear how this all plays out!

mzovoce · September 2013

This is a like a soap opera. Your friend is lucky to have you. Best of luck, I look forward to it all.

SJU1982 · September 2013

What is it about weddings that brings on the crazy ? Although these two sound like the crazy switch is always on. Good luck with everything - I hope the bride enjoys her big day.

babe2331 · September 2013

People never cease to amaze me. Where do these people come from? Good luck!

cutiepie75 · September 2013

Good luck! I can't wait to hear how this turns out.

NOV2007 · September 2013

Wow, what a real gem. Hopefully she is either late, or just a no show. Can't wait to hear how it ends!! Have a great time!!

PhillyGal34 · September 2013

no update really. I sent the email saying that everyone had to come to me with any questions/issues/ concerns and since then no one has bothered the bride or asked any questions. It is clear that they were bugging her just to bug her and cause drama.

maybe there will be a miracle!?!?!

PhillyGal34 · September 2013

Well it happened just like we expected. They did show up to the rehearsal dinner and rehearsal and neither the mom nor the BM said a word to anyone. The morning of the wedding they were late then the mom had to get back in her car to get her family. On the way to the church the van broke down. She called the groom and asked him to come get her. The photographer said they needed him for pictures and somehow tricked us into getting the limo there early to send for them. Mom ended up hitchhiking to the church but it was important to the groom that his grandparents be there and the grandfather was still with the van. Wedding started more than 30 minutes late. Father of the bride was furious. Bride was confused and upset (she didn't know any of this was going on) but it went well from there. Until the mother of the groom snapped at me for no reason and started screaming at her ex husband and dropping the f bomb in the church during pictures!!

The bride had a wonderful day and is still clueless. Maybe some day over a bottle of wine I'll tell all but I'm just insanely relieved it is all over!!!!! I'm done with these crazy people forever!!!!

Sad thing, the bride is not done with them. Wait a couple of months, then you and the bride can have a good laugh.

remember that bridesmaid???? a vent.
