    Why?! Why?!

    Is it necessary to torture the poor bridesmaids. Please all you brides to be, be kind to your friends. I just received my dress for my friend's wedding in April. It didn't look bad at first, but I'm extremely glad that this is the final wedding I should have to be in.

    I get to fly up to MD and then drive to NC with one of my friends from high school. The only positive is that I will be totally kid free that weekend. Unfortunately I have to spend time in the that icky dress. (it's also the first weekend that my husband will be completely alone with the kids for more than a couple hours - although they should be camping with the cub scouts so he'll have backup I'd rather go camping myself )

    It is less than flattering while on. Plus I really HATE wearing dresses.

    Re: Why?! Why?!

    The first two bridesmaids dresses I had to wear I did NOT like at all. There was one that I did like, and this one is okay. I was even feeling better about getting in shape.... until I put that thing on. I just had to vent my frustration.

    It's so much more fun to sit back and enjoy a wedding, than have to be in it.

    i don't really understand the whole "wedding" and inviting everyone to it personally. it's a show of love and a contract between two people and i just don't get the whole 'invite a 100 or more people... spend an obscene amount of $$ and sit back and accept a bunch of gifts'.

    i think 'back in the day' weddings were great... a celebration which everyone pitched in a cooked for, sewed for... the whole nine yards. but now... everything is catered and soooooo freakin expensive.
