Wrong comparison.

Quote From: jewelsf

Are you crazy? If she can't deal with a wedding day gone bad how is she going to handle the much worse "emotional" things that happen in her life?!  2 years after I was married my husband lost his 20 year old son, he was driving my car. My husband and I were almost killed in a bad car accident 10 years into our marriage. I was disabled about 8 years ago and have to live with severe chronic pain every day of my life after having 2 failed spine surgeries and 1 reconstructive surgery. My husband had a hip replaced lat year and is now facing open heart surgery. Our credit is ruined, in 20 years of marriage we have never been able to buy a house, take a real vacation and to top it off we never had a big wedding. We were married at the court house and my husband had to work the next day. Believe me, there are things a heck of a lot worse than a wedding day disaster! I mean no disrespect but truly there are worse things in life. jewelsf
If you have read my post about how it doesn't matter how you are married, just that you are, you know I don't think It's important how big and beautiful the wedding is.  But in your post you are making comparisons that just don't make sense.  I am sorry that your husband lost a child (I have three and never want to live through losing one), sorry that you were in a car wreck, sorry about your physical problems and those your husband has, and know how hard it is to live on limited income (I've been doing it for years).  But all of those things are parts of life you could not control.  The groom here could have controlled how much he drank that day, but didn't.  He drank with his friends without any concern as to how it would affect his wife to be and their wedding day.  Again, in my post you will read that when my wife and I got married we were "feeling good".  But we both chose to have a few drinks and neither of us passed out and missed the reception.  He made a bad, selfish choice.  She has every right to be upset.
