Bridezilla double feature (super long)

[tropicsgoddess]

All that over a freaking wedding announcement that would've been done for free?!! Shit, I would love to have something that's a part of my wedding done for free. Stupid Bridezilla.

[Nyx]

Someone wants to marry her. *shudder*

*shudder*

That's the one thing that amazes me most about bridzillas.

Maybe a shotgun wedding?

Explains much...

[Sliceanddice]

Wow. What a spoiled brat.
Also, you were actually eating a jar of salt? Um...okay...

flavored salt isnt that creepy

My pity to the groom. ><

He probably had no idea what her true form was leading up to this. Then he made the mistake of feeding her after midnight or something and now he's locked in the basement at his soon to be in-law's house with a water dish and a bag of Oreos for sustenance till the wedding day.

I mean she can't let him out, what if he screws something up? He might tie his tie wrong or something. Then the whole wedding would be ruined. It's safer this way.

My fiance bought 3 packs of them from the store for me (I'm a big time sugar fiend). So..Virtual Fun-Dip party anyone?

Something you need to be telling us GK?

Snide commentary? From Mysty? No, I don't believe it.

Having amusing anecdotes about the terrible things that can go wrong and the stupid things people do helps calm my partner down. So if anybody wants to share, please post or IM me!

Have you ever been to www.etiquettehell.com? My friend found it when she was planning her wedding. The main page has all kinds of wedding horror stories (and every-day stories, too). They update with new stories about twice a year, and there's a forum, too.

Part 3 - The Return of Bridezilla

I told you we weren't done.

Alas, and sigh, part 3 is somewhat of a rip-off ending. We believed there was a Bridezilla sighting downstairs yesterday afternoon, but if it was her, she merely skulked around on the sidewalk outside and then vanished.

Today, Saturday, the office is closed. I came into work though, because obits still gotta be written. So I was doing my morning rounds, cleaning out the faxes and baskets around the office of what had been dropped in them since I last checked yesterday evening, and as I approached the front door, I noticed something odd about it. Now, there's a double set of doors at the front entrance, with a tiny little lobby in between. Both sets of doors are usually locked on the weekend, since homeless folks have a nasty habit of getting into our lobby and peeing. So I could see through the second set of doors that the outer doors had something lodged into them.

Of course, I'm curious, so I went around through a convoluted system of pathways we have in the newsroom to get back downstairs and check the front door (this path is primarily for our use on the weekend to avoid having to open the second set of doors).

And what do I find wedged between the doors but a wedding announcement and a very familiar photo?

It certainly wasn't there when the last person who left through the front locked up approximately 10 p.m. last night, or they'd have dropped it in the convenient dropbox three feet away. So what that tells me is that either in the wee hours of the night, or some time today...Saturday...the day of the blessed event...that Bridezilla or one of her angry minions had come by, discovered the paper office was closed, and rather than wait for our office hours Monday, had chosen to embed the announcement in the nearly air-tight front doors and walk away, leaving it halfway hanging out so that any random hobo walking by (and there are quite a few) could have pulled it out and had

A) A photo of a rather attractive young woman (since she was, you know, smiling and not crying and having a tantrum)
B) Her address, phone number, full name, future married full name, future home address, etc.
C) The names, addresses, and phone numbers of four of her closest family members
D) The time and location of her wedding which was THAT DAY

Thus providing a nearly foolproof blueprint for criminal havoc to be wrought, including crashing the wedding, robbing her relatives' empty houses, identity theft, possibly kidnapping and/or murder, etc.

Keep in mind, most of that information isn't required by us. We only ask for a city/state address.

Despite myself, I managed to pry the paper and photo out of the door without damaging them (any more) and bring it upstairs for S to deal with when she gets in on Monday.

Maybe Bridezilla just didn't want to risk having to cry again...?

But it's HEEEEEERRRRRRRRRR DAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYY!!

any chance you can run the wedding announcement along with a Tubgirl photo?

DOWN EVIL IRV! DOWN!

[depechemodefan]

Maybe it's just me, but shouldn't an announcement be published by the bride way in advance, just to let people she couldn't contact (like she lost their numbers) that she will be getting married? Enough in advance so people can get ready? Though this bride probably just wanted her face in the paper, so maybe if it's in the paper a week latter she would be ok...nah...

I work in a library and sometimes people ask for Wedding announcements. The least hastle is if it appeared the weekend before the wedding, but it's so annoying when it doesn't. Sometimes it's the weekend after the wedding, some times it's the day the engagement was announced but the person requesting only had the date of the wedding. Then they want us to look the week before, and if we don't find it then they want us to look the whole month before. Gah!

awwwwwww BUT HOW ARE WE SUPPOSE TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENS!!!

Weeeeeeeeeeelllllllllllll..... I've seen it happen. Perfectly normal, mostly rational girls with only a minor weakness for drama will suddenly go stark raving mad as their wedding approaches. See, I think it has to do with all the fairytale BS we girls get fed from the cradle up, so that many end up feeling that if everything isn't PERFECT, we've somehow failed and doomed ourselves and the marriage.

Mostly, they start out and end up (after everything's over and done) fairly normal people.

The DAAAAAAYYYY becomes more important than the marriage.
