Just wishing you the best, sweetie and wanting this all to only bring you happy memories in the years to come.
Thank you sweetie. I understand, that's why I said you weren't being a jerk. I wish I could do something or say something to make them understand that this wedding isn't about them. Heck, sometimes I watch Bridezilla and really wish that I could be like that. But all I can do now, is try to ignore them, cross my fingers and hope them respect our wishes and do everything in my power to enjoy myself and help DF enjoy himself.
LOL, My FMIL also ruined my BM dress selection by buying her dress a week before DF even proposed and passive aggressively criticized the length and color of the dresses I ended up picking. There is a lot more too. So I'm just trying to ignore everything and be the more mature person.
I deeply appreciate your best wishes!!
Like I had written before, if it wasn't for all of you disbrides, I would have gone insane and just eloped. I am so grateful for you all!! You really help me put things into perspective!
Hi Nikki! My nick name is Nikki too!
Great PJ! I'm glad you started one. I have seen your posts on the boards and you have been so helpful to me and many others here! I am so sorry for everything you have gone through! You deserve a stress free wedding!!! I love everything you have planned. Just curious, do you know what you are going to wear for your NJ reception? I love your dress for your DFTW.
Thank you Nikki!!
It's ok. I think I deserve a stress free wedding too, but I think it will be great, even with their shenanigans.
This is the NJ reception dress (ordered online, it should be here in 5 weeks) and maybe shoes...
Sorry you are going through with all this before your wedding. As a NJ bride also getting married in WDW wouldn't you guys need to have a NJ Marriage License if they were planning turning this into an actual wedding. I have not looked into this at all as we will be getting married in WDW so I don't know the laws but I would think they can't just spring a real wedding on you without a license.
On another note, May 5 was the date we originally wanted for our wedding and we are planning a IllumiNations desert party at UK Lower - that would have been so cool to have two Dis brides next to each other at their desert parties.

I think they may just try to have a priest there to bless us, so that they can go to the Disney marriage without jeopardizing their souls. It's not about us being legally married, it's that since the church comes before law, to her, if a priest doesn't bless us at some point, their son will be choosing to live in sin for the rest of his life and in their eyes, their grandchildren will be born out of wedlock.
One NJ priest I spoke to said that they can't do it anyway, because RC marriages are only recognized if they take place inside an RC church. But another priest told me that if they had a friend who was a priest, who was willing to just do it as a symbolic gesture, that may be good enough for them. That's what could possibly happen, a priest showing up to provide that for them. I have my fingers crossed, hoping that the priests they talk to will refuse their request. But then again, none of this may happen. It's just that their requests have been very strange so far.
A double dessert party would have been amazing fun. I'm sorry you chose a different date. There is another disbride with that date, but I don't think she is having a dessert party.
Oh - I just checked out your report and see you are using Misty. We just booked her this morning for our November wedding. You will definately have to let me know how she works out and I have to check out your desert party pictures. As she is doing ours also I can't wait to see what she does with yours.

I will definitely post pics. So far she seems great.
I love
your invations with Boardwalk map!
Where about's are the crystals attached to them?
And where did you get the copy of the map from? Is it an actual map given to you at Disney? You don't have a copy do you, the girl that checked us in when we were last there scribbled all over ours with biro?!
Thank you Meryll83!!
Here is the link to the map...

For the invitations, I photoshopped out all of the writing. The crystals are on the Ceremony and Reception sites (Sea Breeze Point and the Attic).

I cannot even imagine how I would deal this - oh yes, that's right - I would NOT SHOW UP!
Gosh, what is wrong with families...
We have both told them multiple times that we are NOT having a catholic ceremony. 
I was hoping that I wouldn't have to wear something "old lady" and those are gorgeous!
