The Final Countdown to a Wedding


A wedding. What could be better?

 

Personally my life isn't going too swell, but I am determined to keep problems at bay till after Saturday. Saturday is the wedding of my best friend, my daughter, the one person I've counted on when my own world fell apart. From Wednesday on I will do whatever I can, move mountains, bury bodies, hide problems to make sure her wedding comes off without any more stress piling on her.

 

I have yet to be to the "perfect wedding". I've been to the ones where the bride is carried into the church in a garbage bag because it is raining so hard that five inches of rain an hour have happened, her makeup is running down her face, and her hair now looks like a rats nest. I've been to the one where groom thinks the bride chickened out and has gotten so plastered that now that the bride has arrived, her limo broke down and it took an hour to get a new one out to her, the groom can barely stand. I've seen the groom not show up, or show up late with lipstick in places it shouldn't be and not from the bride to be either. Seen two grooms get into a fight over their vows in front of both their families and friends, where one hits the other one so hard the wedding ends with a trip to the hospital. You can bet your butt I am going to be doing my damnedest to make sure none of these wonderful events occur at HER wedding.

 

From wedding dress issues (her dress won't even be ready for the final fitting till Wednesday), to bridal party issues (her female best friend wants to drop out because it is too expensive and told her today), to anything else that might blow up, I will be doing my best to help her out. I head up to be at her side from Wednesday to her wedding day on Saturday. Wish me luck.

Good luck and stock up on fortitude!

 

Wedding are some of the most stressful events in anyone's life and it seems that Murphy's law rears it's ugly head way too often.

 

I'll keep you and her in my thoughts and send nothing but positive wishes your way!

Holy crap!  The worst I've seen is the best man handcuffing the groom to the bride during the middle of the ceremony :/  I hope her best friend changes her mind.  That's pretty low to do that to her right before the wedding.  I wish her the best of luck and hope she has a beautiful wedding.  She's lucky to have a friend like you. :)
