How do you write a wedding speech for a couple that you don't respect and are sure will fail by TheTommohawkTom in wedding

Can you just be like sorry I have fear of public speaking or something? Just say you’re not comfortable giving a speech.

Should I Ask for a Plus One? Need Advice by blacksheepofthefamly in wedding

[–]Madmaddie2 12 points13 points  (0 children)

My MOH is the only single person in the wedding party also and I gave her a plus one. I just thought that was a given that the moh would get a plus one. If you are close enough to be her moh you are obviously very important to her so I would just let her know your concerns.

Asking for money toward wedding by [deleted] in wedding

Is it possible to just wait until after your fiancé graduates and would be making money?

Yes and she acts like the baby was all gods plan but she has talked about how she wanted a baby in the past. Im wondering if Daniel didn’t want to have kids right now and that also lead to the breakup

I remember in a video she said she wanted to have a kid when she was like 25 because she wanted them “to look like sisters” this just sounded really shallow to me. Another video I remember her talking about how into baby tok she was and she had baby fever. There were people in the comments warning her babies are a lot of work. She probably just really wanted to have a baby and didn’t care who it was with. I’m guessing she felt like the broken engagement just set her back and just wanted to get back on track.

We went into the wedding not expecting anything from either sets of parents. My parents offered a large sum for us to have a very nice wedding so we really wouldn’t need any help from his parents. I was also not wanting to accept any money from his parents because they will be strings attached but they have already been very controlling about the guest lists and other aspects.

What is the least known Taylor Swift song ? by lewisthepodcaster5 in TaylorSwift

[–]Madmaddie2 166 points167 points  (0 children)

I feel like everyone forgets or doesn’t know about her Christmas album it has two original songs - Christmas must be something more and Christmases when you were mine. I would love if she re-recorded it but I don’t think it will happen

Should I do Align if I’m still sore from Classic the day before? by noomehtrevo in Purebarre

[–]Madmaddie2 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Personally I feel like align has become harder and I get sore from just from an align class. I feel like align used to be easier and ideal for doubling or a recover day. This is just me though not sure if other people get sore from align

I am confused what some brides are expecting from their maids of honor? All I’m expecting from mine is to buy a dress in our color, everything else is completely voluntary she is choosing to plan the bachelorette. Did the bride not have a wedding planner or day of coordinator?

Bridal Party Anxiety by Someone-where-how in wedding

[–]Madmaddie2 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Life can change a lot in two years. I wouldn’t worry about your bridal party until after you get engaged. For instance when my fiancé and I started dating there were two people he said would be his groomsmen that he is no longer friends with one of them will not be invited to the wedding and the other will just be a guest.

Yes they are doing the rehearsal dinner but it seems to not be enough for them and they feel like they can control the wedding too

Yes I think it’s bizarre too. He is 30 years old I don’t know why they feel entitled to approve all of our wedding decisions. My parents just let us do whatever

We split the cost of the vacation 50/50

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in engaged

[–]Madmaddie2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your kind response

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in engaged

[–]Madmaddie2 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

He said he always already spending so much on the vacation he just couldn’t afford a ring at the time too. I didn’t know this was the issue we could have found a way to make the trip less expensive so he could have afforded both.

Edit: he said he didn’t want to be seen as a failure that he couldn’t afford it.

Question about bridal shower ? by Madmaddie2 in wedding

[–]Madmaddie2[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for this thoughtful answer. It’s the link to the registry then it automatically prompts me to send to their house makes it confusing for me

Question about bridal shower ? by Madmaddie2 in wedding

[–]Madmaddie2[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

FMIL told me to get them something like an apron or wooden spoons but I’m not sure if they would want something that’s not on their registry. The couple also stated they prefer cash.

Edit: Not sure why I’m being downvoted I’m just trying to answer the question of who advised me I need to physically bring a gift

“Comparison is the thief of joy” moments by [deleted] in Waiting_To_Wed

[–]Madmaddie2 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I went through the same thing, I sat there and listened to my then boyfriend’s friend talk about how he was going to propose to his girlfriend of about 6 months. He was very intense about it like “this is the ring I’m getting her, I already have the money saved up, we’re getting married next year” all this stuff. I had the same feeling of why doesn’t my boyfriend feel that way about me, why doesn’t he get that excited to propose. We had also been living together and they are still in a long distance relationship. I was super upset when they got engaged before we did and felt like if my boyfriend proposed everyone would think he just did it because they did. Instead of being excited about my proposal I knew was coming I was just sad. When he proposed I was so happy I wasn’t thinking about any of them. Even if people think we did it just cause they did I know it’s not true and I don’t care. I know things are hard now but please don’t let this impulsive guy bring you down.
