My Wedding Pet Peeves

I'm not married yet, but it's getting close! 43 more days!!! Although that doesn't mean that there are not a ton of things that haven't annoyed me already.

I've been busy perusing wedding pictures and envisioning my own wedding day/night. I couldn't help being nit picky and decided I'd write a post about it.

Megan's Wedding Pet Peeves:
1. People who think they are invited and tell you "don't forget to send my invitation!" Wedding's aren't cheap people, and if I haven't talked to you since high school, don't expect an invitation.

2. People who don't rsvp - ok this one may not be a good pet peeve, since my rsvp deadline isn't until May 8, but if they haven't rsvp'd by then, i'm going to be annoyed!

3. People who think my wedding is a great place for free alcohol and a way to get drunk. Again...this isn't cheap and you can drink and still be polite and respectful without potentially ruining my day or embarrasing yourself.

4. Out of control guest lists......don't let it happen to you!

5. Weddings are supposed to be sentimental, but i'm really not overly sentimental so please don't get upset when I don't care if we have a videographer or when I don't think we need actual champagne for the toast. (although, I did loose the champagne arguement lol) or that we are not having a recieving line.... I probably won't save my bouquet either....

6. I HATE the phrase "It's your day, you can do what you want!" While this is in part true, it really does matter to me what people think and planning a wedding is super stressful.

7. When wedding planning takes over your lives and you forget to do the little things that made you want to marry each other to begin with....
**While Josh and I are very set on getting married I can't say that wedding planning hasn't put strains on our relationship. As much as we are excited for the event and being married, part of me will be happy when it's over.

8. I swear that the prices of things go up because it's "for a wedding" Why do people seriously pay upwards of 10 thousand dollars on one day? Or maybe i'm just cheap....?

9. Offering to help with the wedding today, when i've been working, stressing and planning this for the last 7 months......don't bother, i've got it!
**while I really haven't needed much help, I have to laugh a the people who recieved our invitation and then e-mailed or called and said "Wow I had no idea how quick this was coming up - do you need any help"....I mailed out save the dates, did you not know when our wedding date was?

10. People who wear jeans to a wedding. I better not see any at mine! I believe that weddings are an honor to attend and should be treated that way. Please give the bride and groom some respect and dress nicely like you might for church...


Don't let me fool you, I'm super excited. But for all the Brides to Be or already married women out there, you must be able to relate to some of these :)
