Simple. That's all I want. Simple. Leave me alone.
Mr. GameBoy and I are getting married in a little over 2 weeks. I have done everything in my power to make this a simple and stress-free day. And yet, everyone else seems to have the ability to make it twice as difficult as it should be.
At this point... leave me the hell alone. I don't care. I'm going to slap the next person that asks me to make another wedding decision.
At first, we were going to have a regular simple wedding in the church. The more I thought about it the more nauseous I became, thinking about all of the criticizing eyes watching me exchange my personal vows of commitment with my future spouse. I just couldn't do it. There was no way. It was too stressful. So, we decided on a private ceremony with our immediate families. That's when people got pissed off... why would we invite only a few people and not them? They didn't get it.
Drama drama drama. I'm fed up. So no one is freaking invited. Just us.
All of our loved ones are invited to the reception after the private ceremony. And yet, our mothers are criticizing us about people we haven't invited.... extended family members, their coworkers, church members, the mailman, his fourth cousin twice removed.
I want a simple white dress with a shrug... it doesn't have to be an elaborate gown, just simple. My mother is making it, and has known for a year. Yet, it has not been started. When I asked about it I got fussed out and told that her "best work is done last minute under pressure." LOL, I just want to make sure I won't be getting married in jeans. Should I not be worried?
Wedding favors... wedding favors?!? This is a simple wedding, cheap. I can't afford wedding favors. It's my wedding day. Not yours. You don't get a present.
What type of cake? What kind of flowers? What should we wear? What color? Should I have the table cloths pressed? Jewelry? Hair? Makeup? Shoes? Dress? Candles? Sand? Pictures? Guest book? Invitations?
LEAVE ME ALONE!
Be glad that I am throwing a party for all of you to celebrate with us. So celebrate our marriage, don't turn it into a shenanigans. I don't care what you wear. I don't care what you bring. Just come and be happy, dammit!
Ask me one more question and see if I show up.
