 Hi girls, I'm sorry but I really need to get this off my chest. My poor mum and h2b have already had me let most of this off on them!!

My family is seriously getting to me :( You may need a bit of background info... My cousin and his wife Kyrie are in the RAF and live in Cyprus. She always seems to mingle her way into everyone's business. She's in your face, very opinionated, and to be honest an absolute cow! Now my cousins gf Stacey asked me to god daughter to her daughter which I was ecstatic about... Until she asked Kyrie too.

Stacey asked me to be her moh and 2 months before the wedding I found out she asked to Kyrie to be it... Leaving me not knowing exactly where I stand in this wedding. I really cannot wait for the entire thing to be over with, I got to choose my dress and it was changed to suit Kyrie without me knowing.

Now it was Staceys hen do last night, I hated every minute of it :( All anyone talked about was Kyrie... All night!! I wrote a message on Facebook about not being able to wait until July 2013, and she commented asking what was happening!!! In the taxi there, my aunty actually had the cheek to ask out loud who's hen do it would be next, I was sat right behind her!!

I'm just so sick of Kyrie getting into everyone's business one way or the other and the fact that my wedding seems a running joke within my family!! When I showed the same aunty that pic of me in my fav dress she actually asked "why are you trying dresses on?!" seriously thinking of just taking my immediate family abroad at the moment!

Feel like crying every time I think of my upcoming wedding now :'(

 i agree with mum_of1 when i was planning mine and hubbys wedding i was so worried bout other people and worrying bout what they thought it sort of took the excitement out of it for me and it made me hate them abit. in the end i just thought f**k them, i dont care what they think anymore. i had close family at the service and then invited everyone to the evening do. (some family didnt even bother coming to the evening do) loads of people tried to put a downer on the wedding and spoil it for us but we just thought if they cant be happy for us then they dont deserve to be at the wedding.

also agree with wat broxi_chick2 said bout jealousy. rise above them all, ignore what they say and just do what u and h2b want for ur day. if they cant be happy for u and h2b and show they are interested then they dont deserve to share ur day with u both

  • Do not know when the wedding will be
 @nessarourke that's an awful way to behave, and these people are meant to be adults ? and family ? they just dont seem to realise the effect of what they're saying is having on you, as @mum_of1 says SOD THEM, its bad of your cousin to as both you and kyrie to be chief bridesmaid that's just bad descision making if she cant make her mind up between the both of you. With being the god mother though i do know you can have more than one xx

 Thanks girls, glad you understand... I told H2B all this and all i got was "Just ignore them"!
Its too hard to ignore, im feeling so depressed at the moment, im really on edge and can randomly burst into tears at any given second. Im having a really hard time at work, im being bullied by my manager but she is also the owner so no one higher than her to report her to...

Stacey phoned me last night and told me she had dropped my dress of at my mums, explaining that because of all her family coming from Southend, they will be getting ready at hers and it would be easier for me to meet her at the registry office.
I found out this morning that Kyrie is getting ready at Staceys house... so she doesn't want her original MOH there but her 'new one' is wanted :( xx

 @nessarourke Ahhhh hun have just been checking out the off topic forum and saw this! Hope that you are ok - some people are so nasty its untrue!! I had it recently with my Hen do plans - not one of my family or friends replied the only people coming were friends of my MOH! Eventually my sister said she would come but I've got to the point now where I think sod the lot of you we are going to do what we want to do with the wedding and everything else (we are going abroad too) i wouldn't be surprised if I have no-one on my side LOL!!

With your boss is there no-one you can speak to as that is disgusting that you feel trapped too!?!

wish you lots of happiness soon hun and its not too soon to try on dresses there are sooooo many to choose from hehehe xxx

 I was getting stressed before our wedding about families, my sister wearing a white dress etc, so Sam made me repeat our new wedding motto everytime it got me down, "It's our day so F%*k them all!", Do it your way!
