Let’s face it, there’s something kind of entertaining reading about wedding dramas, except when it happens to you. Reddit relates the most recent iteration of the genré. Call it wedding day scheduling dramas.
An anguished woman (let’s call her Bride #1) vented on Reddit about her situation. It seems her best friend (Bride #2) scheduled her wedding a mere four months ahead of Bride #1’s wedding date.
Bride #1 was cool with it:
“My best friend and I are getting married four months apart and I was genuinely excited to share such a milestone with her. My initial thoughts were that we could help and support each other through the planning process, and have someone who understands how stressful it can be. All while still having our special days.”
But Bride #2 became less supportive of the entire idea:
“I don’t want us getting married in the same year” or “this is really going to test our friendship”. Comments like these really hurt my feelings but I had not said anything because I honestly did not want the conversation to be blown out of proportion. However, I am now at the point that I tiptoe around any conversations regarding my wedding because she may not take it well.”
In fairness to Bride #1, Columbus Pro DJs recognizes that popular wedding dates get sucked up fast. Wedding day scheduling dramas do occur. Bride #2 needs to understand that. Who knows, Bride #1 might have had to put her wedding off for months, even a year or more to snag the date she wanted to appease her friend. It’s not fair to make her put her wedding on hold like that.
Bride #2 recognizes that she may pull from the same pool of friends, setting up uncomfortable comparisons between the two affairs. This is a fair point, one worth considering.
Guests WILL compare the two weddings, but not in the way many couples think they do. The gown, the flowers, and even the food are not the comparison points that matter. It’s the fun.
