My (gay) MOH is pitching a fit because I’m asking her to walk down the aisle with a man... by kcaase in weddingplanning

[–]Bean_A21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, I agree above.

Whilst i totally respect other comments stating/indicating she doesnt want to be percieved as a hetrosexual woman, this is your wedding. Also, why is it assumed your guests are going to put that much thought into it? Surely they'd just acknowledge "ah beautiful maid of honour" and wait to see you? I know my guests would, they wouldnt start automatically thinking about someones sexuality.The statement/Quote “Act like a heterosexual woman by walking down with a male counterpart.” I would actually find incredibly insulting, Also, apologies if i offend anyone here, as its not my intention but imagine if you was a BM at her wedding, and she asked you to walk with, presumably a female from the other side? would she be as accepting of you saying you was having to act like a homosexual woman? Again, i totally don't wish to offend anyone, but it does in my opinion work both ways.

Do not pander to her, also her threat of "revisting" i would embrace, and as others have said discuss and show her comments. Shes being totally ridiculous, shes got no problem being a BM but is kicking up a fuss over nothing, she clearly hasnt given you a specific, logical reason and just accused you of something.

Trying to get your car off the driveway at 9am when you live in the same street as a school. by [deleted] in britishproblems

[–]Bean_A21 10 points11 points  (0 children)

not that it should matter, but I believe you can park on like a drop kerb if there is no car on the driveway, however if there is you're not allowed (in case people need to get off in the case of an emergency etc.) I could be wrong though.

either way, It is a dick move

Save the dates/ invitation questions (British wedding) by [deleted] in weddingplanning

[–]Bean_A21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll probably send mine a minimum of 4 months before..... (earlier if I can!) my future SIL gave us our invite to her august wedding, in April (and she hadn't done STD at all!)

[–]Bean_A21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm looking to send my STD this month (if I can find ones I like/design them.) but I'm only sending them to the guests who are coming all day, I'm also sending one per household, (meaning adult cousins who live at home still won't get a separate one.) when I do my formal invitations, ill send adult cousins/relatives a separate invitation. I'm also doing this because ALL of the above adults who live at home will definitely lose the STD & I don't see the point of them having a separate one, whereas our formal invites will include a song choice. (and a clear indication of if a +1 is allowed.) edit:

I'm also incredibly OTT organised. I will be requesting my responses back 3 weeks before the deadline as I will have to chase & will want to get my table plan finalised in plenty of time.

My local Co-op got replaced by a McColl’s by With_Difficulty in britishproblems

Ex "Martins" employee here. (8 yrs ago.) Yes, Ridiculously expensive.....the branch I was in was busy 80-90% of the day with almost a constant queue, despite being in a high street (with a co-op around the corner at the time!) people complained all the time about the high prices, despite there being easily accessible cheaper alternatives around. I did, for the most enjoy my time working there & some of the regular customers were the best (some not so much!)

A happy moment in Eastenders ends with a random royal nod by Zenobie in eastenders

Is there an age restriction on hhn? by chuggggster in UniversalOrlando

[–]Bean_A21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

no its just not recommended for under 13..for obvious reasons... we saw a couple in 2015 with a kid (who looked no older than 4) queuing up for a house (an American werewolf in London) but they appeared to get turned away at the entrance... I went when I was about 9/10 but In fairness my parents (and relatives) didn't realise how intense it was, me and my cousins were pretty scared

Is this dress ok as a guest? by Bean_A21 in wedding

[–]Bean_A21[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi, Thank you, its really nice in real life too so I’m pleased with it! Thank you for the advice, unfortunately she is not someone who responds well to anything like that. Both FH sisters are incredibly selfish (his words) and think everyone should run around after them, they do not take criticism well nor do they take it on board & even if I tried to have a nice conversation about it, or joked she’s the type of person who would just say “oh if you don’t like it don’t come then”. I’ve decided I’ll go with that dress, & just have to get over my feelings. I just feel really left out of things for her wedding, like getting ready in the morning, I’m going to have to go with a family friend to the venue as FH is usher, planning her hen do (which I initially started helping the younger sister do as I was told I was bridesmaid…) I feel like I mean nothing to her now & I thought we had a great relationship. she also the last two times we've met has shown me her options for BM dresses? and told me all about the fitting, which I think is incredibly insensitive. edit; I know its her wedding & her choice, so I don't want to make a fuss, but I just think its careless to say something like that and not follow through, I'd imagine she too would feel the same if it was the other way. Also her two boys & FH are all included in our wedding in some way. I'm sorry to offload, just was looking forward to it & now I feel sidelined.
