My whole wedding day is a blur- I remember having tunnel vision to the altar, trying not to pass out. I was so anxious, just trying to breathe and get it over with. Looking back, I'd rather have gone to the JP court and maybe have a small get-together of friends go out after. It's so easy to be disappointed by it because it's this big idealized social event-but if you actually get MARRIED, and have a great marriage, then mission accomplished- and it doesn't matter if you throw a big party or go to the courthouse.
Angela-Come on girl! If you're going to throw a big bash, you have to know that if people choose to be in your wedding, that's NOT an excuse to demand anything. In fact, it's a complement that they would endure bridesmaid dresses, costs, rehearsals, etc, for YOU.
Weddings are as much if not MORE for the people that attend and participate than they are for you- you decorate, you feed them, you give them little gifts and spend the day talking with them. It's a privelege to even have them there, not something you're entitled. Angela should be a maid of honor at a wedding, it's a lot of work! Then maybe appreciate what they do for you at your wedding- No more bridezilla, please!
Angela...
We can all bow to your reasoning of it being the bride's wedding more so than the groom. But you said this is the way you are regularly. Your husband is going to wake up one day and not want to be a child in the relationship and he's going to see you as a "mother" or "control figure" and that will effect your intimate life eventually. He won't see you as attractive and desirable. He'll be afraid of you. Your selfish soul doesn't deserve this quality man. For you to say you'll get another groom if he doesn't obey -- it would be his blessings if you did. You need the Lord.
