I'm a bridesmaid in a wedding today, and I'm shaq-fuing PISSED

[quote name='ITDEFX']so you say the groom looks like rom, and the bride looks like Leeta?[/quote]

No. As you'll recall Ferengi women are perpetually nekkid. :lol:
 
If thats the worst thats happened, consider yourself lucky. Some weddings are absolute disasters on a major scale and this one sounds just more like a slight discomfort to you, nothing major. 5 hrs of sleep? Big deal. For a friend's wedding day, its a tiny sacrifice of your schedule. Chinese food? Alot of people like it, and they probably dont have alot of money. Doesnt mean you had to eat it. Hungry? Grab a snickers. Blegh. Try to shake off the irritants and make the best of it. The bride is probably stressed to all hell and back and is acting out of character too. Weddings are stressful three ring circus events and all eyes are on the bride and they know it. Be optimistic, atleast its a vacation of sorts, and hey, you dont have to eat their food selections. Optimism goes a long way.
 
wait a minute, its almost 7pm boston time. She's not gonna see this for a few hours..ok people start placing your bets!

You did. however, remind me of my computer science teacher last year who would lecture once every few weeks, assign a project, and sit his short Asian ass down and play WoW ALL DAY. :lol:
God forbid you went to ask him a question about something.

XD. And no, I wasn't being racist. I just really want some ribs right now. And as far as a CAG wedding, what would the limit be? Would it involve a Vegas Chapel? 99 cent store party favors? Mc Donald's value menu dinner?

And what's with all the 4chan memes? I've been gone for a while.

ok fixed...i think

what? they let him play WoW during teaching science class?!?! wtf!?!?!

I really , really hate it when the teachers I work with, when ever i am doing the hard work, they are social emailing/IMing/ My spacing during class. Myspace is blocked in the county, so I don't know how the hell they are getting around it!

I could really fuck some people up by letting admins know about this shit lol.
 
*ignoring sidetracked topic*

I'm not sure, knight. I've found out that these things (annoying, sudden events you have to take part in) are just one part of life you've got to endure. What I think helps is to try to enjoy these things as much as you can, despite how hard it may seem, because if you're just happy for 1 hour out of a 6 hour wedding, it's better than being miserable and spreading your bad attitude for the whole six.
 
Sorry, I was so damn tired I went immediately to bed after going home. I just got up to pee and get some Advil. I think I'm coming down with a cold. For people who asked about where I was typing this, it was at home. I was talking to the bride through IMs. I left the house around 1PM. There was a ton of traffic as usual in the Boston area, and I barely got there at the prescribed time of 2:30. At least I was not late, and even the bride and groom were late so whatever.

The wedding went decently well, but there were several problems. Before I say the details I want to say I often overreact about shit, and I was never really not going to go to the wedding. They've been my friends for years and it would have been an assholish thing to do. And the bride was under a ton of stress. Still, sometimes she really needed to cool down and relax. Though I don't blame her with the shit that went wrong. And she did look really beautiful. She actually did her own makeup, too.

Anyway, here's what the problems were. I'll just list them:
-Both the chapel and the reception hall were cold as fuck. The chapel had some heating but it simply was not enough; it's an old, small building. The reception hall was inexcusable though. It was like an icebox, with drafts everywhere, even at the bridal party's table, which had a vent running along right behind it. This wasn't the bride and groom's fault; totally the fault of the reception hall. Still a fucking disgrace though, the bridesmaids had to put on coats to keep warm. At least the bride had several layers of skirting on.

-The bride's dress ripped a tiny bit before the ceremony. Not really a problem since her mom had white needle and thread, but it just made her very stressed out, which didn't need to happen.

-Another bridesmaid had a problem with her zipper. What a great dress for $170.

-The food sucked and there wasn't enough of it.

-The travel to the fucking reception hall was a disaster. The directions they gave everyone had a critical mistake. Instead of having to pass 2 lights and turn to get on a road, it was 6-7 lights. Pretty much everyone got lost, including the bridal party because they couldn't at least carpool us together and follow in a line, much less rent a limo. The groom was very apologetic to everyone, but the bride, under a ton of stress as it is, was not even going to wait for one of the ushers at one point before we made our entrance. She usually isn't like this at all, and it was kind of discomforting to me even though I should have expected it.

-They used U2 for the first dance.

-This one is competely my fault. I decided to wear my contacts for the ceremony. Bad fucking idea. My eyes were dry and hurting like hell, and even now, after sleeping, they still aren't really recovered. I should have expected this, but I wanted to wear them. I guess I'm vain.

-This is the real fucking kicker: the groom's parents were late to the fuckING CEREMONY. They were supposed to be there at 2PM and got there at 5PM (the ceremony was to start at 4:30 PM). As if everyone wasn't under enough stress. The bride was so pissed off at the groom's mother, who had been being a total bitch about everything (making shitty comments at the rehearsal), that this was the last straw. We started without them. And they walked in on the "I do"s. What a fucking disgrace. The groom's mom should have been fucking ashamed (the father is ill and can barely walk, plus he seems like a good guy, so it wasn't his fault).

I left early, after the cake was cut, because I could barely stand up at that point. I felt terrible since the bride was really stressed out, but I seriously could not stay any longer. I wasn't the first person to leave, at least.

I suppose it turned out better than it could have, but the one thing I can't believe is the groom's mom. What an asshole. I will post pics later, I'm going to go back to bed.
 
Well you dropped 5 f-bombs and complain about class???
Get over it, your complaints are crap, I sleep 3 hours every day because I have to WORK, so how about stop crying that your precious sleep deprived body can't cope with a wedding because you had to eat MSG...

[quote name='brainstorm']So is the no open bar, WTF is that??[/QUOTE]

If I was getting married, I would want any fucker getting piss drunk using my money. fuck that. Alcohol = expensive.
 
wow what a crappy budget. first shitty chinese food and then no open bar. i would have bounced after that if i didnt know the groom and bride.

i just want to know why at every wedding they play U2 when the bride/groom enters the reception. they did this at my friend's wedding..and now yours..makes me wonder.
 
The only U2 that would be acceptable to me would be "Sunday Bloody Sunday" or "Until The End Of The World." I'm guessing it wasn't either of those.

Most large-ish weddings are miserable for most if not all people in attendance. In the few that I've been invited to, I've been one of the few people enjoying myself because I really don't care about protocol and take mild amusement in crowds like that.

It wasn't. It was some really weird crappy song. God I hate U2. Bunch of pompous assholes.

It wasn't a large wedding at all. It was way less than 100 people.

And I say fuck a lot on the internets and in private. I don't say it in situations that don't call for it. Part of having class is knowing the right times to say things.

At my wedding, I will certainly have free soda (I think my future husband would run up a huge bill in Diet Coke otherwise :lol:), but because of my principles, not money, I don't think I will have an open bar. My boyfriend calls me a "wet blanket," but I just don't like drinking very much at all. We'll have to see.

I have pics, but looking at them through the camera's preview feature, my dad is a HORRIBLE photographer. Blurry as shit for the most part. He fails at life. I think all except for one will be the ones I took of myself in the car in case this happened.
 
Gosh, we should just all get big buckets of ice cream, sit on the couch, watch Sex in the City, and just be big bitches!

(Others in unison) YEAH! You go girlfriend!

Oh dear god. Wedding are the worst, besides funerals. This and exactly this are the reason why my betterhalf and I are going to Colorado, getting out justice of the peace on and hten partying for a couple days in the Rockies and then maybe hit some coaster parks in Cali. Weddings suck.
 
Sounds like more fun than a bridesmaid should be subjected to. :rofl:

Though, the groom's parents being that late to the ceremony, and walking in the "I do's"? Wow. That's truly a lot of class.

I'm not sure if I want to have an extravagant wedding or not. I'm pretty sure my parents want me to (and they've said they'd pay), but the price of a wedding these days is basically a good portion of a down payment on a house. I'm thinking of having a small wedding with only the close relatives on each side, ie aunts, uncles, and cousins being the farthest invited. They can send the difference in money saved as a check for a down payment on a house if they really want to.

EDIT: Apparently someone who attended the wedding told the groom's mom to "fuck off" during the wedding!!!

What I'd like to know is why were you in the wedding if you like these people so little. You berate them in public (with PETTY things) on one of the most important days of their lives? You don't think that attitude was showing through?

Considering the circumstances, Sunday Bloody Sunday might have been appropriate. :lol:

I don't see why y'all are getting so menstural over DoK's topic... at least she isn't asking how often you masturbate or where you first got laid. :roll:

40 times a day. I wear a lab coat. Makes me feel legitimate.

The Children's Museum.

....

What?
 
Hmm. A wedding just ain't a wedding until at least one bridesmaid gets fucked in the coat closet. Between that and paid drinks, sounds like a bust.

That said, I kinda hope the bride and groom somehow manage to find this thread. Perhaps I'll look through Boston newspapers for recent wedding announcement for folks in their early to mid 20's. ;)

They don't live in Boston. You'll fail. Also only one of them is in their 20s. The groom is 10 years older than the bride.

Also, where did everyone first get laid? ;) I keed, I keed.
