People can be so inconsiderate!
Hope you had fun shopping!

Hope you had fun shopping!
hey lynn!!
Ok..just got caught up on your PJ...as usual..it all looks SO cute
I'm so sorry about the shower. I wish I could have been there..I would have recruited 20 strangers to come too! lol What matters is that you were there with your closest friend, and I'm sure she is just happy to show you how much she cares about you.
I can't believe how close it is getting to your wedding!!!
ps~ PM me and tell me where you're registered at![]()
Hi Lynn,
The shower and cake looked beautiful! I am so sorry you are bummed about your family. I have learned to accept mine for who they are, faults and all. Just remember, this is abotu you and your DF. Focus on that and any family involvement is just gravy. I wish you the best!!!!
Lynn,
I'm so sorry to hear about your shower. It's sad that weddings tend to bring out some not so flattering sides of people. We've been having to deal with some issues of inconsiderate people/family with our wedding to. Keep your head up and remember all the great and loving things people are doing for you. You MOH is awesome and she really showed how much she cared! My best advice is something someone on these boards shared with me. Just roll with the punches and be sure to enjoy the special moments.You are going to have a beautiful wedding and a even more beautiful life with Tim.
Hi almost Wedding Twin,
I am so sorry your family wasn't there for you. I really don't understand why people can't just behave and act normal when it comes to weddings. Are they invited to/coming to the Disney wedding?
If it helps at all, you aren't alone. I've been dealing with all sorts of family drama. Most recently, my older brother (the father of my nieces/ex-flowergirl and ex-jr. bridesmaid) told us that they wouldn't be coming. My dad paid for their hotel, and flights and the dresses for the girls months ago, but he just backed out a few weeks ago. He also turned down our invitation to our at home pre-reception, which is only a 40 minute drive from his home. We've all asked him why, but he won't say. And he won't let us take the girls without him.
I hope your family doesn't continue this even at your wedding. And if they do, just try to ignore it the best you can. Don't let them ruin your day.![]()

Lynn, sorry about those people. Some people stink! You will still have a fabulous wedding. You are so close now!
Thank's BabeWhat a beautiful shower![]()
What a cute saying on your cake! I am sorry not everyone came. I hate when people don't RSVP or show support!
oh honey... that's a bummer...
I can't believe people wouldn't come!!!!![]()
At least now you know who really wants to be there for you...
I understand that it hurts (I would too if someone were to throw me one and nobody came), but just think of how lovely your MOH is to do all that wonderful stuff for you.
Good luck in VS!
I picked up a couple things too today...![]()
Looks like the shower was fun! I'm sorry that alot of people didn't show up!Your cake looked so pretty! I LOVE LOVE rosa regale! Yum!
Lynn,
I am so sorry to hear that no one came to your shower. I can only imagine how that felt. I would have been there in a second!![]()
OoOo...Victoria Secret! I've been eyeing up their orange section they have now. I am dying for the bra with matching underwear. Is that TMI?![]()
Anyway your coming really close now! I already can't wait to see pics from your day and it didn't even happen yet. We need a support group because im sure im not the only one!
Lynn, I'm so sorry! I only hope that everyone wises up before your big day! Try not to let it upstage all the friends that did show up and the fun you had. You did have fun right?
Yes I'm back on cloud nine now,I'm over it lol.Oh wow that totally stinks! I can't believe they did that to you!
You have an amazing MOH to throw that party though. Those who didn't show, well, it's their lost! You and Tim are going to have such a happy life together, don't worry about them.....I know it's easier said then done, but still.
Don't forget, you're getting married at DISNEY WORLD! They happiest place on earth! Nothing should bring that down.
please do not let it get to you. People do this all the time. I am already having issues and here is what I have realized:
In 10 years, none of this will matter because you will have your husband and kids and closest friends and family and feel completely content with life. It doesnt make a difference what they did now because years from now when you are happy, they will begin to feel ashamed.... <3
sorry LynnPeople can be so inconsiderate!
Hope you had fun shopping!
Lynn - I'm sorry your family didn't go to the shower! That was very rude of them, and i can understand your anger, and embaressment, over it. I hope they don't do anything stupid like this to ruin your wedding. The saying on the cake was too cute!!

Lynn I'm so sorry to hear that your family didn't show up. The same thing happened to me for my engagement party. I know it can hurt and can make you think a lot of negative things but try to focus on all the positives - the people that actually showed up, the hard work your MOH and her did for you, and the great wine you got

I am sorry that your family didnt come to the shower. I think that even if they dont realize it now they will regret not going and feel like they missed out on something special. At least you do have friends and family that did go and you know that they will always be there for you! I am sure if we were all able to on the boards we would have went!!!! Its nice to know you have people on here to vent to and just think in a couple of weeks you will be in the happiest place on earth marrying your prince charming![]()
Hugs for you!![]()
Lynn, I'm really sorry that some of your family didn't go to your bridal shower! It is understandable that you feel sad and upset about it and I really really hope that they can make it to your reception!! Also, this place is a GREAT place to vent when you are feeling down about things! I really learned that with my own wedding woes, so vent away whenever you need it!! Keep your chin up!![]()
Well last night was my surprise shower.My MOH Lisa had it at her house and she did a cute job decorating and her mom helped with the food and everything.
Well I feel bad and I'm very upset because seriously none of my family went,there were 5 people there.1 of my friends my mom and sister tims mom and tims sister.not even my Mom Mom came...Now this makes me wonder if anybody will even come to our reception.I'm sorry but all of my aunts have been married and have had showers,how would they feel if nobody came.I'm trying to get over it but it just hurts. I'm hurt that Lisa put time and effort on things like the food and favors and everything that goes into a shower and nobody came.
Is it that hard to come and support your niece/grandaughter/friend before she gets married,I just don't get it.
Then to make things worse Tim's sister was miserable,rude to everybody and even rude to her mom.She just sat there and did nothing then I was in the kitchen pouring a glass of wine and she comes in and says I didn't bring a gift is that ok. Umm I geuss so lol.
Sorry I don't mean to vent but I'm really a mess over this.I'm so hurt that my family just wouldn't go. to me and I'm being honest I'm not upset because I didn't get a lot of gifts,that's not my point so I don't want to sound like that,I'm hurt nobody came. I'm annoyed that nobody helped Lisa,lisa's mom did! I feel like she just wasted her money on favors and food,it could have went towards something she needs you know what I mean.I'm so terribly ashamed. I mean I remember when I was little my mom helped plan so many showers but you couldn't help with your first daughter's wedding. I don't get it.
Here is a picture of me..Lisa bought me my favorite wine,it is rosa regale,they have it at epcot in italy.Love it,it's the only wine I drink so that is what I have in this picture. I'm a mess so don't mind how dumb I look.

I'm going to target now,when I get back I will show you all what I got from Victorias secret today![]()
Lynn, you look so lovely at your showerAnd I've been meaning to tell you this forever--I love the pictures in your signature; you guys look so great together.
I was sad to read how people didn't come out and support you at your showerWho knows WHY people do some of the bizarre crap that they do?
Just remember that you and DF are blameless, and you're gonna have a wonderful wedding, no matter who comes. And even if loved ones aren't as supportive as they should be, the event is most special for you two.

Lynn -- Hi, sweetie! I am sorry I didn't get back here sooner. Your shower looks lovely, and how exciting that you were drinking my favorite wine! LOL!!I am really glad that you are feeling better about the people who didn't show up and that you know it wasn't a lack of caring for you.
You deserve to be surrounded by people who love you and want the best for you, so if some selfish people had missed your shower, I'd say no big loss. BUt I am so glad you are doing okay about it. How fun about shopping at VS! I hope you have a great time!
BTW, I was really hoping we'd be able to say hi on May 5 when I am leaving WDW and you are arriving, but it sounds like you'll be at AK while I am over in the BW area.Please know, though, that I will be sending HUGE amounts of
and boatloads of
in your direction!

Oh my God, I missed where you posted about the wine. Rosa Regale is the bestest wine in the universe--it really is the only wine I will drink. We knew we wanted to use it as our champagne at the wedding, but we were nervous that Disney wouldn't have it. Of course they do, and they even have a floral basket called Minnie Regale that comes with it (I'm thinking of ordering the basket for our first night in Disney). The shower looked beautiful!
I'm glad that things ended up being okay with the shower. It amazes me though people sometimes have a strange attitude towards destination weddings or at least we kind of got the cold shoulder from some people since we weren't getting married at home.
