when i got to my mom's she was frantically sewing a sash for the girl's dresses i asked her what happened to all the help (trying to be as calm as i could although i was steaming inside) thats when she advised that she hadn't done anything, i wanted to shout and scream but instead said in a harsh tone 'just get my dress done at least as i need that more than anything and dont be late you have to give me away. so its 7am i take my car (that is another story as to why my mom had it) and go home, by the time i get home its 8am once home the videographer and potographer come to film and shoot me getting ready instead tey are addressed with me in floods of tears so they say they will go to the venue instead, so then my mil2b turns up she has heard whats going on and has come to help (she had to travel up so i imagine exhausted) she pulls me together and ask me to bring mine and my daughter's dress if i still wanted to get married as my h2b says he does and will be waiting for me, so i realise i cant leave him at the altar on his own i love him to much to do that, but i have to explain to her that i do not have the dresses yet, so she phones my mom no answer so she phones again and again finally at 10:30am my mom answers and says 'if we really love each other we dont need anything but each other' so my mil being angry travels down there to get te clothes as my h and his guys are all dressed to the 9's and i would be turning up in a clubbing dress at best, she gets the clothes but the girls dresses havent been finshed and my mom took my dress apart, so my mil pns us all into our dresses which was bad enough but my dress was held together by alot of pins which were sticking into me and scraping my arms but i still wanted to wear it as it was my dream dress and i think better then a skimpy sequined clubbing dress, so at the ceremony i'm crying my heart out just before i walk down the aisle eveyone has been waiting for 2 hrs from when the wedding was meant to start and do not look happy get down the aisle on my own holding back the tears and as i'm walking i hear people whispering look at her dress, look at her hair, where's her mom why she on her own, h2b is smiling but when i reach him i can tell he is super angry and he evens ask what the h**l is ging on wheres your mom, we get through the ceremony of which a few people walked out and i later find out they lft because they thought we were a joke and the whole day was a farce, we go out to take pics and i turn to quickly so my dress opens on the side, people pin it back as best they can and encourage me to smile it my wedding day and i married the man i loved and who loves me so i try too, but at the recption most of the tables are empty as people had nt bothered to come, my family hadn't come and i find out my mom went to the recption to try and 'help out' however she put bowls on the tables and during the meal they started to explode as they were too hot, no one said anything when it came time for speeches, there was no cake and as the dj had not been paid (yet more drama to do with my mom), no music or first dance, for me our day had been a complete disaster, now as my wanted to help out but at time acted like it as her wedding and i would have to put her in her place but with my emergeny operation i didnt have the energy to fight so we have had to pay for services that we didnt use because we were contracted to them but my decided she wasnt paying but didnt say anything(and still hasnt)
